Fun on Wheels & Trails - 5 days (Boulder)
By Pedaling Minds
Rider Levels 3 and 4: Novice and Intermediate Riders
This camp is designed for those who know how to pedal but need to develop better bike handling, situational control, and work on skills-specific drills to become confident riders. Our courses include traffic lights, stop signs, various obstacles and, of course, the tunnel of mist where riders learn to control their bike and their emotions in challenging situations. Riders will have a fun time practicing positive control of their bicycles, quick decision-making, riding environment assessments, and group ride etiquette. We do all of this in the safety of a parking lot. If everyone is feeling stable and confident, we’ll leave site and hit the trails together. Kids will often repeat this class several times. It's fun, we cover a lot of ground, and some kids need more time behind the handlebars to build confidence.

About Pedaling Minds
Pedaling Minds first started in 2014 as Mike Friedman’s part-time passion project and was converted to a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization in 2017. To date, over 1,500 children have learned how to ride a bike and have improved bicycling skills and safety through the Pedaling Minds method. Over time, Pedaling Minds has grown to offer experiential learning programs in various layouts, from weeklong summer programs to one-day clinics. Skill lessons and drills are tailored to the level of the student. Mike has also recruited other prominent coaches to the programs, both professional cyclists and alumni parents who share his passion.
