The Bike Safety Clinic is a fun, hands-on experience designed to help children develop the skills and knowledge they need to ride safely and confidently. Facilitated by local safety experts and cycling enthusiasts, this program promotes age-appropriate road safety, bike handling, and helmet use education.
During the clinic, children will bring their own bikes to participate in interactive stations. They’ll learn how to properly fit a helmet, check their bike for safety, and practice riding skills through obstacle courses and traffic-safety simulations. With guidance from friendly instructors, kids will explore topics such as hand signals, road rules, and visibility—all while enjoying a supportive and encouraging environment.
The Bike Safety Clinic fosters independence, confidence, and awareness, empowering children and families to make biking a safe and enjoyable part of everyday life.
Guests will use a scavenger hunt to find all the participating bike advocate groups as a way to earn their free helmet. Once they have completed the scavenger hunt and received a helmet, guests can customize with stickers and create a bike license plate!
Free Helmets while supplies last!
