Biking is more than a fun activity; it’s a critical development activity that enhances physical coordination, emotional resilience, and social skills. Engaging in cycling from ages 2-5 not only propels their little bodies into action but also nurtures their growing minds, laying down neural pathways for a lifetime of learning and emotional well-being. Let’s kickstart this thrilling journey on two wheels, where every turn is a new discovery and every ride, a leap towards a brighter, more connected future. 🚲💡✨

A dynamic kids bicycle class that offers an immersive journey through the fascinating world of cycling for kids typically aged 6-9. Whether they’re novices who just learned to pedal or seasoned riders honing their skills, our class provides a nurturing environment where every participant can thrive and grow. We believe in fostering a sense of camaraderie and mutual support, creating a space where young cyclists of all ability levels can come together to learn, explore, and flourish. With a unique curriculum designed specifically for both beginners and intermediate riders, we offer a comprehensive range of activities and challenges tailored to each child’s unique stage of development.
Because Pedal Champs casts a wide net for age & ability level (in between not pedaling, and advanced mountain biking), our expert coaches evaluate each child’s ability level on day one, and then divide them into ability level sub-groups which is dynamic throughout the program– so they’re always riding with other kiddos of similar ability. Embark on this transformative journey, building confidence, mastering new techniques, and discovering the joy of cycling in a safe and supportive setting!
Beginner through advanced mountain bike skills development, trail etiquette, stewardship, and team work. From beginners eager to navigate their first trails to advanced riders seeking to master technical terrain, our classes provide a supportive and engaging environment where students can push their limits and discover their full potential.
Amidst the backdrop of nature’s playground, our mountain biking program offers an immersive experience designed to ignite passion and cultivate skill in every young rider.
