LEARN-TO-RIDE CLASSES FOR AGES 3-6

Register

What's Included

Registration is $75 per session. Each Get Rollin’ session runs for one week (Monday through Friday), with two class times offered per day at 9:00am and 10:15am. Classes will be hosted outdoors at Lakeside Church in Folsom. Please scroll down to read our Refund & Transfer Policy before registering.

Sibling Discount: An automatic cart discount of $5 per registration will be added for families registering multiple kids.

Classes are designed to teach kids age 3-6 with some or no experience on a bike to stride, then ride! These classes are a perfect fit for kids who:

  • Have no experience on a bike
  • Ride only with training wheels
  • Ride on a balance bike and are ready to progress to pedals
  • Pedal cautiously without training wheels

Kids have the option to utilize our fleet of Strider balance bikes (which convert to pedals when they’re ready), or bring their own balance or pedal bike. Please leave bikes with training wheels at home and use a bike from our fleet.

Everyone learns at their own pace! This is an accelerated one week program, and some riders may benefit from multiple sessions.

Curriculum

Kids in our Get Rollin’ camps will learn the following skills.

In balance mode, how to:

  • Properly fit his/her own helmet
  • Get on and off the bike without assistance
  • Understand basic bike safety guidelines
  • Look forward and far ahead while on the bike
  • Walk, sit, stride and glide on a strider bike
  • Stop with control, and on designated points
  • Turn and navigate obstacles

In pedal mode, how to:

  • Stride and put feet down around the pedals
  • Keep feet on the pedals while in motion
  • Rotate and control the pedals to propel forward
  • Switch between striding and pedaling with control
  • Properly brake using the coaster brake

Other goals:

  • Ride comfortably around others
  • Change and control speeds
  • Basic traffic safety
  • Emergency stop
  • Begin to ride on dirt trails

Equipment

All kids enrolled in the Get Rollin’ program have the option to use our demo fleet of Strider balance bikes and helmets. The Strider bikes we use are specially designed to teach kids the basics of two wheeled operation using their legs for propulsion and when they’re ready, quickly convert to a pedal bike with coaster brake.

Your child may bring their own balance or pedal bike and helmet, and our coaches will assess if they may benefit from borrowing one of our demo bikes. Please leave bikes with training wheels at home and use a bike from our fleet.
