Registration & Pricing

Get Rollin’ Learn-to-Ride classes are designed to teach kids age 3-9 with some or no experience on a bike to stride, then ride! Classes will be held outdoors at Clipped In for Life headquarters in Historic Folsom (909 Mormon St. Ste. 104, Folsom, CA 95630). 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

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

What's Included

Your registration includes one week-long class session (Monday-Friday unless otherwise stated). Class duration is around 45-minutes to one hour daily.

*Our February 18th “Ski Week” class week is shortened for President’s Day. This class week will be only four days (Tuesday-Friday), with 1 hour classes each day (instead of 45 minutes).

Equipment

Kids Age 7-9:
Kids in this age range will need to bring their own bike and helmet (our demo bikes are too small to provide a good learning experience). We start all kids learning in “balance mode,” so please remove any training wheels and pedals from your child’s bike before class. We are able to help with pedal removal on the first day of class.

Ages 3-6:
Kids age 3-6 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 in “balance mode” 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 and helmet, and our coaches will assess if they may benefit from borrowing one of our demo bikes. Please leave bikes with pedals and/or training wheels at home and use a bike from our fleet.

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
