The day after returning to Fort Collins, Mark and I were able to score a temporary job teaching bicycle safety to 7-12 year olds through the FC Bikes program. What a blast! Today we took the kids from Fossil Creek Park in southern FoCo to Spring Canyon Park, where we rode the Pineridge natural area singletrack. The kids rocked it, and we were beaming with pride. It got Mark and I thinking about the bike shop idea again. How great would it be to include a safety + fun ride with the purchase of any new kids bike (or any bike, for that matter)? Of Fort Fun’s many shops, not many are as involved in the community as they could be.
Anyway, we are gearing up for Fort Collins Bike to Work Day tomorrow. Mark and I are going to hit up a free breakfast station or two on the way to camp, and then take the kids (and a few parents) to another station after camp begins. It is so great to be back!
W loved your camp. Thanks for letting us tag along for bike to work day!
