What is a Bike Rodeo?

A Bike Rodeo is a 1 hour activity that teaches essential cycling skills sessions to large groups of elementary or middle school-aged children in.  A Bike Rodeo emphasizes basic bike skills, safe equipment and fun! Children learn how to inspect their bicycle, fit their helmet, and ride their bike according to the rules of the road.

PG Brian Injured Group also offers ‘train-the-trainer’ sessions to grade 7 students so schools may continue to host Bike Rodeos independently – a great leadership and peer support activity!
