PedalPower Kids

All the way to the Bay!!!! 🌊 Our Advanced Bike Adventure Campers rode to Sandy Point State Park today, utilizing the completed Broadneck Trail (& the B&A Trail)- it couldn’t have been a prettier day, and the new trail near the Park is lovely- much of it well-shaded, quiet and peaceful. We’d recommend parking at the Broadneck Library for a nice fun family round trip ride!

Two more incredible weeks of bike camps to share!!! We’re so proud of our resilient and tough campers - from riding to the Zoo in extreme heat (&hills!) to pedaling in a hallway inside because of the air quality, our bike campers persevere- with smiles on their faces! When bike campers navigate hard things, they’re building a foundation of confidence and agency. We’re not just building riders, we’re building leaders, one pedal at a time.

Moving into July, our campers had a blast this week despite the heat wave!

Trying to ditch the training wheels this summer, but missed camp sign ups and home practice isn’t working? You are in luck!🍀 We added an afternoon Learn to Ride camp late for next week, July 6th, at Kinder Farm Park in Millersville. Even better- the forecast looks lovely, with highs in the low 80’s! We still have lots of spots available- join Coach Brendan for what will surely be your child’s favorite week all summer!

Week three has wrapped up- we thought it couldn’t get any more fun (spoiler alert: it did!)

Happy Father’s Day- from our dads to yours!

Pedaling forward, honoring history.

Today we celebrate Juneteenth, marking the day in 1865 when freedom finally reached enslaved Black Americans in Galveston, Texas—two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
At Pedal Power kids, we often talk about the bike as a tool for freedom. Today, we want to honor a pioneer who rode that freedom straight to the top: Marshall “Major” Taylor.
Born just 13 years after the abolition of slavery, Major Taylor became America’s first Black world champion athlete in 1899. He didn’t just race against the clock; he raced against intense racial terror, track bans, and open hostility, winning despite it.
Juneteenth is a day to reflect on the long road to freedom, celebrate Black joy, and recognize that the ride toward true equity continues- a sentiment that PPK hopes to embody not only on this day but throughout the year.

Week two has come and gone! We are so proud of all our riders!!! Will you be joining the fun next week?
