    This Saturday (Oct. 1) is IMBA’s 8th annual Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day” and Strider want to see you get out with your kid(s)! The International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA for short), in support of First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move! initiative has pledged to get 30,000 kids on their bikes on Oct 1st!

    We would like to extend that challenge to our Strider Parents as well…whether you are a mountain biker, roadie or just like cruising on the bike trails…get out this Saturday and let us know about it!

    Cool!!! JoJo loves having the orange grips on his KTM and matches with orange wheels. Great way to give the bike some pizzazz after a period of riding. Order and get them shipped and open them up with your kid - great times!

    Here's JoJo sporting his KTM Orange Crush Custom at the UCI BMX World Championship in Copenhagen, Denmark. He was trying to hitch a ride onto the track since they only have racing for kids age 5 years and older. But at least he got to meet new friends from around the world! And Copenhagen is a great family friendly city.

    Ohhh! Time to call Galen's Daddy and see if I can take him out Striding this Saturday. No mountains around, nor could I navigate them, but what a great day to hit the trail! Rain, rain, go away, come again after dark on Saturday!

    Doesn't have to be on a mountain, just get out with Galen and have some fun! Take a photo you can use for your Avatar as well.

    We "just" got back from MTBiking - Here is a picture taken just hours ago of Grayden right before he strapped on his Little Nutty and took off...of coarse he headed for the first puddle of water we came across!

    Of course!

    Here is a picture of Grayden taking the first push-bike test run at our Bike Park today - This Micro-Track was made especially for Striders and consist of 2 berms and 4 rollers, super sweet track! You gotta love the Bike Park kids watching and cheering Grayden on as he made the inaugural run!

    Thanks for posting this. It is inspirational to see the other kids cheering on a toddler. Where else would you see this?

    Not only where they cheering him on, Grayden fell and one of the kids went out onto the track and helped him up before I could even take a step, it literally gave me goose-bumps to see all the kids cheering him on, giving him tips and helping him out!

    Yeah, I want to see! Ok, there are no pics on my posts - if you saw what I do with a camera, you'd understand! So I gotta enjoy others. LOL

    My two Strider alumni spent a little time on some single-track on Saturday morning in celebration of Take A Kit Mtn Biking Day. We had to squeeze it in before soccer games. Bode (age 8) complained that the trail was too easy. Jesse (age 4) does pretty well on his pedal bike if the trail is pretty flat and smooth like this one. If it gets rough or steep, the 19 lbs. pedal bike gets parked and he chooses his Strider. It has been amazing to see his capability on his pedal bike based on all the skills learned and practiced on his Strider for the last couple years.
