Kids 201 clinics are for children ages 6-11 who have completed our Kids 101 clinic OR who already have trail riding experience. Children ages 12 and up may join our Beginner 1 Clinics. Skills will be learned primarily through fun activities and games instead of “teaching”. Emphasis will be on having fun, safety and being a respectful, courteous trail user.
NOTE: A parent or guardian must be present in the area and must be on the trail on a bike for trail riding portion of the program (about the last 30 minutes).
To get the most from this program, the child MUST already be able to:
- Put on own helmet correctly
- Ride in a straight line over uneven terrain
- Operate handbrakes : Must bring a bike w/ handbrakes only. No coaster brakes.
- Operate gears (if bike has them)
Skills covered in this program may include:
- Body position for balance
- Sighting on the trail
- Gearing
- Braking
- Pedaling efficiency
- Navigating small obstacles
All participants and guardians must have their own bike in good working order and a properly fitting helmet. Please note: if the child’s helmet does not fit properly (ie, too small or big, broken straps, etc.) they will not be able to participate.
Bring your own bike and helmet.
