Kids' Bike Rodeo

Summer in Huntsville is almost upon us and it’s a great time of year to discuss cycling and road safety with your children and family. The Town of Huntsville, The SportLab, the O.P.P., the Kiwanis Club of Huntsville Muskoka, and the Rotary Club of North Muskoka host the annual Kids' Bike Rodeo, a fun, free, educational clinic for kids aged four to nine years old to encourage safe cycling. The Kids' Bike Rodeo is free of charge, however advanced registration is required at huntsville.ca.

The Kids' Bike Rodeo kicks off Thursday June 8, from 4:30pm – 6:30pm at Huntsville Public School.

Kids make their way through a variety of stations designed to improve their cycling knowledge and skills. Stations include helmet and bike safety checks, recognizing road signs, learning cycling hand signals, a mock intersection, and an agility course. The agility course is a group favourite; with cyclists riding as slow as they can while maneuvering through pylons and doing shoulder checks to identify images held up by volunteers. The entire rotation takes approximately 30 minutes and wraps up with a delicious snack, a completed checklist, certificate, and some bike goodies. Please arrive 15 minutes ahead of your assigned timeslot, provided to you in advance of the event.

Thank you to our generous sponsors:

“We’d like to thank the local organizations and businesses that are supporting this year’s new initiative by sponsoring a bike and safety helmet for local children,” says Mayor Nancy Alcock. “Their donations mark their commitment to the community and recognizes the importance of physical activity for youth and also active transportation for the Town of Huntsville.”

  • Curveball Design
  • Huntsville Volunteer Fire Fighters Association
  • Huntsville Community Initiative Centre (2 bikes)
  • Mayor Nancy Alcock
  • Muskoka Bicycle Pro Shop
