Mission Statement

To teach children with disabilities to ride a 2 wheel bicycle over the course of 5 days. Approximately 80% of the people who participate in our iCan Bike program ride a two-wheel bicycle independently (at least 75 feet with no assistance) by the end of our five-day program while attending for only 75 minutes each day! The remaining 20% make tremendous progress towards this goal and leave our programs accompanied by family members trained as 'spotters’ to pick up at home where we leave off!

Description

This is our 11th year hosting iCan Bike in Richmond. We have had 350 children participate in iCan Bike in the past 10 years and it wouldn't be possible with out our dedicated volunteers.

As a volunteer at bike camp we prefer that you come to camp at the same time each day (75 minute session), you will be assigned a rider that you will work with for the 5 days of camp. Volunteers will run along side the rider as a spotter. It is a very rewarding experience as you watch your rider gain confidence throughout the week.
