About the provider

Laura Childress and Hannah Childress lead Bike Adventures for Kids. Laura started the program 18 years ago, and the site also says it was established in '06. The mission statement says kids discover the joy and freedom of riding bikes and exploring Marin's outdoors by bike, with an emphasis on teamwork, confidence building, and bike handling. Laura is a registered nurse and Wilderness First Aid Certified, and Hannah received the NorCal Mountain Bike League's 2017 Achievement Award. Many kids return year after year, as campers and then as counselors, and Hannah leads the Fairfax Fat Tire Flyers Mountain Bike Development Team and the White Hill Middle School Mountain Bike Club.

After-school rides are weather dependent. The ride will still be hosted if it is raining lightly and will cancel due to inclement weather. Registrations for after-school rides are non-refundable and non-transferable. No credits, refunds, or transfers for missed rides or sessions.

What families say

“Best bike camp ever!!” — Nina

“Katie started her week as a very tentative bike rider, and emerged as a confident rider who loves to get on a bike, and who learned all the important safety and motivational lessons to get her on track for a lifetime sport. You are a great teacher (and role model) for a girl especially. She had a great time!” — Mark
