Adventure Riding Camp: Thanksgiving Break Edition!

Meeting Location: Richmond Playground Park

Wheel Kids is an adventure exploration camp; daily schedules are determined by coaches and are subject to change depending on group interests and ability levels. Adventure Riding Camp offers a dynamic experience for older, more experienced Riders. The goal of ARC is not only to enhance on- and off-road technical abilities, but also to emphasize the safety and enjoyment of our riders. ARC campers participate in advanced rides around San Francisco and beyond. ARC riders will experience a broad range of riding surfaces, from city streets and multi-use paths to off-road trails and technical singletrack. ARC rides may involve “taking the lane” of a shared street in addition to riding bike paths and routes. Coaches will work with campers on a wide variety of skills, including scanning and signaling, lane position, pedestrian interaction, efficient climbing and descending, gearing selection and pedaling cadence, technical trail riding, obstacle avoidance, jumps/drops, bike maintenance and trail-side repair, and group riding techniques and etiquette.

Adventure Riding Camp caters to older, more experienced riders. A prerequisite for participation is a high comfort level on bikes and the necessary skills and mental focus required for big days on the bike. ARC participants can expect long/moderate or short/steep climbs, the potential for 15+ miles daily, and occasional requirements to carry bikes up/down stairs or other obstacles.

This special Thanksgiving Break Adventure Riding Camp is a chance for strong riders to practice their skills in the city and beyond! During this 3 day camp, our group will ride on roads and trails around the city, hit Stafford Lake Bike Park (weather dependent) and ride to Marin to take the Ferry back to SF!

  • Ages: Ages 9 – 13. High Level 5 and up – please review skill levels before registration to ensure proper fit for this camp.
  • When: November 24, 25, and 26th, 8:45am – 4pm

Winter Break Camps December 22 +23

Winter Break Camps: Lil’ Cruisers and Camp Cruisin’

Get ready for some winter riding fun! Our Lil’ Cruisers and Camp Cruisin’ Winter Break camps promise two exciting days of adventure, even in the chilly San Francisco weather. While winter days may bring rain, the fun doesn’t stop! Just like in summer, kids will enjoy bike rides, skill-building, and group activities designed to keep the energy high.

We’ll aim to ride each day, but if the weather keeps us off the bikes, campers can look forward to indoor bike maintenance, games, and even off-bike adventures like trips to museums or arcades by MUNI.

Each camp group will also enjoy a special outing in the Wheel Kids van! On Monday, Camp Cruisin’ will head to Stafford Lake Bike Park (or ride the Mill Valley Bike Path if Stafford is rained out). On Tuesday, Lil’ Cruisers will take a trip to the Warming Hut, where Camp Cruisin’ will meet them in the afternoon for a hot chocolate treat! Winter Break Camp blends the thrill of biking with the flexibility to explore San Francisco no matter the weather. It’s a perfect way to wrap up the year with Wheel Kids!
