May Balance Bike Clinic
to
Ord Terrace Elementary School 1755 La Salle Avenue, Seaside, California
We host year-round Balance Bike Clinics open to all families. Register for a clinic and come learn how to ride a bike without using training wheels! Balance bikes are the ideal partner to introduce your young child to the concept of two wheels. Due to the extremely low step-through entry point and the high cockpit, little ones can enjoy two wheels as soon as they can start walking: https://focmc.org/balance-bike-clinics/We are certified League Cycling Instructors (LCIs) with the League of American Bicyclists. Registering for a clinic gets your family our professional instruction. We'll help show you how to adjust your child's bike and helmet to fit their needs; how to maintain and care for their bike; and how you, as their adult, can create a supportive environment for your young rider. We have ramps. We have cones. We have obstacle courses. We play games. We talk about bike and pedestrian safety. We stay late after our clinics are over to give one-on-one instruction to families that want to hang out. But mostly, our clinics are about building COMMUNITY. If any of that appeals to you, we'd love to meet your family and have you attend: https://focmc.org/events/2018/janbalancebikeclinic• Dates: Three consecutive Sundays (May 6, 13, and 20).• Time: 9am - 10am.• Location: Ord Terrace Elementary School. We understand that kids grow fast, bikes are expensive, and keeping up with quality gear can be challenging which is why offering a scholarship option to families that need it is essential in supporting our goal of making biking accessible and affordable to all families in Monterey County. Whether you want to rent, buy, and/or bring your own WOOM or Stampede bike to a Balance Bike Clinic -- we've got a ton of registration options available in our online storefront, one of which, is bound to fit your families needs.
