Ready for the kids to finally learn to ride their bikes in time for summer?

Pedalheads is offering a taster of their amazing summer bike camp program on Saturday June 16th.  Kids will learn fundamental biking skills such as; balance, steering, starting and stopping. These skills will be introduced through innovative games and challenges that your child is guaranteed to love!  Whether your child is on training wheels and looking to master riding on two-wheels, or they are looking to improve their biking skills and take on fun obstacle courses that will challenge them and teach them new skills, the Pedalheads playdate is not to be missed!

There will be two different sessions (10-11:30am and 1-2:30pm). Levels 1-3 riders are welcome and you will be placed by the instructors into your ability level once you arrive (this is mostly for beginner and new riders ages 3-9).
