A good week on the bike
Ride. Learn. Take a break. Go again.
Kids spend most of the day riding. Coaches add short lessons when they are useful, then the group tries the skill on the trail.
Plenty of trail time
The group rides loops and routes suited to the camp they chose.
Useful coaching
Short lessons cover braking, balance, body position and trail control.
Real breaks
Water and snack stops are built in. Full-day riders also get a proper lunch break.
The people leading the ride
Coaches who know how to ride and how to teach.
1:5Maximum coach-to-rider ratio
Ready to teach
Our coaches are skilled mountain bikers who ride often, are trained in first aid and know how to teach skills at the right level for each rider.
Ready for camp
Before summer starts, our coaches complete a training day together. They review how mornings run, how to lead each group and what to do if a rider needs help.
At pickup
Your coach can share how the day went and let you know if there is anything to bring, fix or practise for tomorrow.
Arrive ready
What each rider needs.
We check every bike and helmet before riding on Monday. If either is not safe, the rider cannot join until the problem is fixed.
A trail-ready bike
A properly sized mountain bike with gears, two hand brakes and off-road tyres.
A safe helmet
A fitted, undamaged helmet is required. Gloves, knee pads and elbow pads are optional.
A small backpack
Water, snacks, rain jacket and a spare tube. Full-day riders also bring lunch.

Quick answers
Before you book.
Does my child need trail-riding experience?
Not for Demo Riders. It is for kids who can already ride on their own but may be new to forest trails. They should be able to start, steer, use hand brakes and stop without help.
Which riding area should I choose?
Choose Demo Riders if your child is new to trails or prefers easy gravel and forest paths. Choose Fromme Riders if they already ride green trails on Mount Fromme and are comfortable climbing.
What is the difference between half day and full day?
Half-day camp runs from 9:00 to 1:00 for ages 7–11. Full-day camp runs from 9:30 to 3:30 for ages 9–13 and includes more trail time and a full lunch break.
What bike does my child need?
A mountain bike that fits, with gears, working front and rear hand brakes and off-road tyres. The bike must arrive tuned and ready to ride.
Where are drop-off and pickup?
Both are at Kilmer Park in North Vancouver. Half-day camp runs from 9:00 to 1:00. Full-day camp runs from 9:30 to 3:30.
What if a camp has fewer than three riders?
Each camp needs at least three riders to run. If your child wants to ride with friends, invite them to choose the same camp and week. We will contact families at least 72 hours before camp if the minimum has not been reached.
