Like Riding a What Now?
May 21 is Bike to Work Day! And while technically, none of them need to bike to work (or school), as they live there, bikes are still pretty amazing. So in a sort of full-out combination strike towards educating wixes about the non-magical world, doing something for the general physical fitness of the Hogwarts student body, and also hoping for an afternoon of entertainment while watching purebloods struggle, Dee decides that it would be a great idea to teach wizarding folks how to ride bikes. Or first, what a bike even is. Baby steps.
With some help of @Atticus Wade, who swoops in with his orange chevy full of bikes, Dee opens a Bicycle-Training-Camp on the Quidditch pitch. After a short explanation about what a bike is, roughly how it works, and what the important bits are ("You sit here, use this to steer, and push these to move forward! Oh, and these are the brakes, they're kind of important. Also, ring this before you crash into someone."), participating students can pick up a bike, split into small groups, and try their luck. Kids familiar with bikes are welcome to come and help their less knowledgeable peers, ride around the pitch, or take a stab at a small obstacle course. Dee will be there to answer questions, yell at motivate people, and have a grand time watching people fall off their bikes. Training wheels will be provided where necessary.
Prerequisite: Two feet, at least one hand, and a head.
