Urban Trails Bike Camp
August 4, 2014 @ 9:00 am - August 8, 2014 @ 3:00 pm
$250This fun and safety focused urban trail riding camp offers kids the opportunity to explore local trails that connect our city. Base camp will start at America the Beautiful Park, which allows connection by trail into Old Colorado City, Manitou Springs, Monument Valley Park, Shooks Run and Rock Island Trail. Each day, participants will ride to a new location by utilizing bike trails and some neighborhood streets. The goal is to ride to a new destination each day such as to the library, Garden of the Gods Visitor Center, Catamount Institute, Pulpit Rock and more. The focus of this camp is on cycling safety, trail etiquette, bicycle commuting as transportation and basic bike maintenance skills like changing flats and solving gear problems. This camp is a terrific option for a 2nd (or 3rd!) week of bike camp if your child attended one of the mountain bike camps over the summer. Space is currently limited to 10 participants. Please bring a sack lunch, a backpack, water bottle and a jacket. To prepare for camp, please make sure your child is comfortable on dirt with two wheels before registering for this program and would be comfortable riding 8-10 miles (sounds like a lot but we take a lot of breaks!).
