What is the event routine?
We generally start at the ride location fitting helmets first and filling water bottles. We generally circle up to get to know each other a little (maybe play a game). Ask the children if they ate breakfast if not provide them a snack before the ride. Bikes should stay put until after this, once the children are on the bike it is hard to get them to focus on anything else. Bike fitting takes place and simple instructions on shifting and braking are given and the ride begins on an easy trail. As the ride progresses the ride leader assesses the group’s ability and decides how much riding should be done. Upon return. The children washup and help prepare lunch and then after lunch they help clean up and put the bikes back in the trailer.
