I was recently asked in my building to lead a half hour safe cycling training for folks there, I may still get to do it.

"But a half hour on what part? " I said.

"There's different stuff?" they said.

The cascade bike club has a bike safety class. They teach you how to avoid small objects in your path, the best way to stop quickly, and some other safe handling skills.
For example, if you really want to stop fast, push your butt as far back as you can because it creates more drag and weight on your rear wheel.
I took the class and enjoyed it.
