Our Mission
To make high quality bicycle education accessible for those who want to bicycle for simple recreation, social connection, and/or everyday trips.
About The Founder
Hello, I'm Jianhan.
I help people become more confident and capable with bicycles from learning to ride to riding for transportation and/or simple recreation to feel more connected to others who bike and enjoy the feeling of freedom many, including myself feel on a bike.
My earliest painful memory was learning to ride a bicycle. It involved repeated falling and bleeding as well as envy of a friend who seemed to learn faster with less bleeding. Yet, getting to pedaling became my earliest memory of pride.
Since becoming a certified League Cycling Instructor in 2017, I...
- Taught 800+ people various bike skills across classes, private lessons, and workshops since I became a certified League Cycling Instructor in 2017.
- Ran education programs for Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition in 2023 - 2025. That included organizing 75+ classes, evaluating 12+ class sites, leading and training instructors, coaching students, developing curriculum, and more.
While I love teaching classes and private lessons, I want to help more people gain access to bike education. This led me to start Metro Bike Academy.
