KIDS! LEARN TO RIDE!
Learn to Ride with Wee Wheel Roanoke
We are exited to partner with Wee Wheel Roanoke to offer Learn to Ride classes for kids this fall!
Wee Wheel instructors are professional coaches who have been trained and certified to teach children how to ride. Wee Wheel skips the training wheels and focuses on building a strong foundation of balance and body control so kids can ride confidently from the start.
Children typically learn to ride within one to four sessions, depending on their age and experience. Once kids have “graduated” from Learn to Ride, they can move on to Level 3 with Wee Wheel, where they can continue building confidence on two wheels.
Wee Wheel's supportive and fun environment makes learning to ride easy for parents and an exciting milestone for the entire family!
