Cycling PEI is pleased to partner with Bike Friendly Communities to offer a FREE HopOn Bikefest for kids aged 6-12 on Saturday, June 22, 2024 starting from 1pm-3pm as part of the BFC Block Party at the Farm Centre's Legacy Gardens (located behind the Farm Centre, Sobeys and CBC on University Ave)!
What is HopOn? HopOn is a games-based program meant to introduce kids to cycling in a fun, safe, and engaging environment with NCCP-trained coaches. Learn more at www.cyclingpei.org/hopon. Full HopOn courses take place over 3-4 sessions, but kids will get to sample some of the HopOn games during this BikeFest.
IMPORTANT: HopOn is designed for kids who already know how to ride a two-wheeled bike without training wheels and wish to advance their bicycle skills. Your child should be able to pedal for a minimum of 60 pedal strokes without stopping in order to be ready for HopOn.
Registration on this page is only required for kids who will be participating in the HopOn activities. Kids and families not participating in the HopOn activities are still welcome to check out and participate in other parts of the Block Party without registering here.
Participants of the Bikefest and Block Party will:
Have the opportunity to have their bikes and helmets checked out by the pros (bikes may be borrowed from the HopOn fleet if needed - please reserve in advance on this registration form);
Play fun games from the HopOn curriculum to learn and practice safe cycling skills;
