- Lil’ Cruisers: Ages 5 – 8; Level 3+; An easy introduction to bike camp, for up-and-coming riders who know how to ride independently on two wheels, but aren’t up for the bigger rides of Camp Cruisin’

Friends & Siblings
We will try to accommodate friends or siblings who wish to ride together. However, for safety’s sake we need to make sure everyone is riding in the best group for their ability or that more advanced riders know that they won’t be riding to their full potential if they want to stay with a friend or sibling who’s a less skilled rider. If you’re registering along with a friend for the same week(s) and wish to ride together, please let us know.
Wait List
If your desired week(s) fills prior to your registration please proceed with the Active registration process; once you’ve filled in the information you’ll be added to the wait list.

If you decline or respond after 24 hours of notification you will be removed from the wait list for that particular week.

Two Wheelers Club
Ages 5 – 8
Learn to Ride
Two Wheelers Club is for kids who want to learn to ride, improve on their fundamentals, or gain the confidence and stamina needed for adventure riding. The emphasis of TWC is obtaining the balance and coordination needed to ride on two wheels, mastering starting, stopping, and controlled forward movement, and gaining confidence in riding skills before tackling the more challenging rides of Lil’ Cruisers or Camp Cruisin’.
Wheel Kids is an adventure exploration camp and our daily schedules are dynamic! Daily schedules are determined by coaches and our subject to change depending on group interests and ability levels. In addition to two wheel practice, campers can expect to explore San Francisco by foot, public bus, or, when they are ready, short trips on their bikes! Each session, Two Wheelers will take one “field trip” (usually on Thursdays) to the San Francisco Zoo!
Two-Wheeler’s Club is a full-day camp: Monday – Friday 8:30AM – 4:00PM, with optional aftercare from 4PM – 5:30PM (available at an additional cost).
This camp is open to riders Level 1 – 2, ages 5 – 8.
Bike Requirement: Properly fitting two-wheel pedal bike with either coaster or hand brake. Child must be able to easily touch their feet to the ground while seated. Single speed bikes are recommended at this level.
Once kids have successfully completed Two Wheelers Club they may continue their bicycling adventures by attending Lil’ Cruisers or Camp Cruisin’. When registering children age 6 to 8 in Two Wheelers, you may also register for later LC or CC weeks; however, Wheel Kids reserves the right to hold a child in Two Wheelers Club if his/her skills are not sufficient for LC or CC activities. Children age 5 are only eligible for our Two-Wheeler and Lil’ Cruiser programs.

Camp Cruisin’
Ages 6 – 12
For everyone that loves to ride their bike and seek outdoor adventure
Camp Cruisin’ runs sessions 3, 5, 7 and 9.
Camp Cruisin’ (formerly Adventure Riding Camp) will challenge and inspire your child with unique bike rides and activities in San Francisco and beyond. CC kids are exposed to a variety of bicycle-based activities – daily bike rides, riding skills instruction, bike maintenance, on- and off-street safety skills, share-the-road etiquette, wayfinding, and lots of having fun and messing around on their bikes.
Wheel Kids is an adventure exploration camp and our daily schedules are dynamic! Daily schedules are determined by coaches and our subject to change depending on group interests and ability levels. CC groups ride both on and off road around local parks, slow streets and bike routes and lanes. Depending on a group’s ability level, typical CC rides range from 5-10+ miles a day, with stops at local museums, to go geocaching or play kickball, and more amazing adventures!
One day each session offers either an in or out-of-town field trip to an exciting local destination, while every day at CC is basically a field trip to somewhere. We’re always on the go: exploring, learning, and having fun.
