Pedalheads™ Camps
Come and discover the possibilities of riding a bike!
Riding a bike is one of life's great milestones. It opens up a world of possibilities for kids and adults alike, including: fitness, competence, confidence, independence, physical skill, and the freedom to move.
Half Day Camps
Kids learn best when they’re having fun and keeping active. At Pedalheads™, they get to combine new adventures in the great outdoors with testing themselves and their abilities — in a safe, camp environment.
Half Day camps run over five days for two and a half hours — the ideal amount of time for introducing, absorbing and practicing biking skills. Lessons are taught through the use of games and drills and broken up with safety activities and stories.
To accommodate the many learning styles, Pedalheads™ has plenty of different teaching aids to engage children and help them learn. In addition, our student/instructor ratio is very low to allow for focused, individual concentration. Levels 1 and 2 have a maximum of 4:1 and in all other levels, it's 6:1.

Trikes 'N' Trainers (T'NT)
We think your kids are dynamite! Trikes and Trainers is a one hour camp full of pedaling fun and safety for 3 year olds (born in 2007). Kids are welcome on their trikes, run bikes or bikes with training wheels.
Kids will learn steering, pedaling, stopping and starting as well as helmet and traffic safety.
We will not be taking off the training wheels. Our goal is to encourage the little riders to love their bikes and want to ride, ride, ride!
