Our Melanin in Motion Camps have been in development for the past four years. These camps are helping us broaden our reach of getting children outside and riding bikes by providing an experience that is specifically geared toward black and brown children and youth. During the week we provide appropriate staffing, as well as a group of community cyclists that support and mentor our riders as volunteers.
