Bike Clinic (TR)

KidsAbility’s Therapeutic Recreation (TR) Bike Clinic is an opportunity to support your child in riding a “regular” bicycle or to explore options for enjoying biking together as a family.

What to Expect:

Our team will work with you and your child to find a biking option that works for them through: 

  • An individualized bike assessment
  • The opportunity to try two-wheel bike options  
  • Identifying teaching strategies to learn how to ride a two-wheel bike
  • Investigating bike accessories or modifications that could help your child to ride  
  • Identifying an appropriate bike to best suit your child
  • Problem-solving specific challenges impacting your child’s bike riding experience
  • Identifying options available for you to enjoy biking together as a family (trailers, tandems, trail-a-bikes, tow arms, etc.)
  • Accessing equipment through KidsAbility's Bike Loan Program.

Upcoming Sessions:

Referrals to the TR Bike Clinic are accepted year-round. An initial appointment will be held virtually with parents and caregivers through Zoom to discuss your child's challenges and goals. In-person clinics are scheduled in the Spring and Summer.
