Description

Velocity Learn 2 Bike

Get your kids outside this summer on 2 wheels.

These clinics are designed to assist your children to become a 2 wheeled rider as well as give them confidence, learn bike safety & improve their biking skills.

What to bring:

  1. A bike that fits your child, preferably without training wheels, but if assistance is needed please arrive 15-30 minutes early and one of our bicycle technicians will remove them.
  2. A helmet that fits your child. Head protection is vital, especially in the learning stage.
  3. A water bottle. We will be discussing the importance of hydration while biking and during exercise.
  4. Athletic clothing. Please encourage your child to wear athletic clothing they can move freely and feel comfortable in. Additionally, tennis shoes will be a requirement for safety purposes.
  5. Lastly, a positive attitude! This is a fun class with the goal of improving skills on and off the bike. Bikes are tons of fun, let’s stay safe and have a blast!

With the exception of point #5, all other points can be provided/purchased by Velocity Multi-Sport and Cycling depending on the situation, but we encourage you to bring your own. This ensures the best, most comfortable fit for your child, and allows for the greatest time efficiency during the class. During the lesson: 

  1. Feel free to stay and watch the lesson, we ask that parents refrain from interfering with the class unless directly asked to do so
  2. If possible, please park along Wright Rd to allow the most space for the children in the class.
  3. You can stick around or you may leave during the lesson, but we HIGHLY recommend returning to Velocity at or before 6:45.
  4. We have limited seating inside if you wish to stay indoors, but will also have many chairs on our deck and outside. 

A little about the instructor: 

My name is Maya Van Berkum (she/her) and I have been working at Velocity Multi-Sport & Cycling for a little over a year now. I have been a recreational cyclist for nearly all of my life, as well as a competitive cyclist for two years. Basically, I do it all! I have worked as a swim lessons instructor, Janesville Schools Outdoor Lab (JSOL) guide, and will be helping with bike maintenance of the Janesville School District Summer School Youth Triathlon Class. Essentially, getting young kids to be active is my goal! I am 17 years old and a current student at Craig High School. I am CPR certified, Red Cross Lifeguard certified, First-Aid certified, and SafeSitter certified. I love to teach, and I cannot wait to see everyone!
