Just Riding Around Group (JRA) is for kids who have never received formal skills instruction and may not be sure about what they are capable of. This three class, 90 minute per class mini-session is a great way to introduce kids to the NCYD method of instruction. Participants will be introduced to fundamental bike skills instruction through ability-appropriate activities that provide safe progressions, simple instructional prompts, and peer support. These mini-sessions are perfect for busy families that may not be able to commit to a longer session. They also provide an efficient, effective, and enjoyable way to assess the ability and interests of kids for future NCYD programatic opportunity without the pressure and inaccuracies that often come through reliance on other conventional placement assessments.

JRA groups are comprised of 6 participants instructed by 2 certified and experienced instructors. Classes are all-inclusive. Activities typically stick within a 1 mile radius of the primary park but can venture out 2 to 3 miles depending upon the ability and interest of the participants. JRA groups are designed for kids who may be on the fence about participating in group riding, kids who are new to riding, or kids who may not have geared bikes.
