Learning to Balance on a Strider PREbike

Learning to Balance on a Strider PREbike“Just wanted to send you this little video of my daughter who is not even 2 1/2.  She loves this strider bike and learned to ride it on the first day she tried it.  We originally bought it for my son when he was three and he only used it a month and learned how to ride a big boys bike.  Even though he learned how to ride a big boys bike he still continued to use the strider.  Now with my daughter using it, I am so excited that she feels like a big girl now!  Thanks for such a wonderful product and great learning tool!”

Strider helps with Monster Energy Supercross Breast Cancer Fundraiser

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

Strider PREbikes had a great opportunity to help raise funds for Breast Cancer Research. The recent Anaheim 3 Monster Energy Supercross race in California was awash in PINK as industry folks helped to generate money for this worthy cause.

The fundraising effort was spearheaded by Shasta Johnson (the wife of a high school buddy of mine). She has experienced this terrible disease like few others… she lost her 29 years old sister to it and was also diagnosed herself. She battled and won… a cancer survivor! She now devotes significant effort to education and fund-raising. Visit her website at www.teamshasta.org. Here are photos from the Pit Party outside the arena… notice the Pink Strider PREbikes hanging from the tents. Visit Ebay and bid to win one of these special bikes autographed by Supercross Champion, Chad Reed … all funds go toward the cause.

Poor, tricycle-less children missing out on fun… NOT!

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

Check out these little kids, some only 20 months old, riding all sorts of fun, challenging terrain and having a ball!  Their minds are engaged.  Their whole bodies are involved.  They’re getting great exercise and building muscle strength and gross motor skills… There are no lethargic, obese kids in Striderville!

STRIDER(TM) PREbikes make the February issue of Dirt Rider magazine!

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

This was a fun surprise for us… first phone call of the day was a dad wanting to order a Strider for his little boy and saying that he saw it in Dirt Rider magazine. We had no idea that the Strider would be in the Gear Bag section of the magazine. Later that day our subscription issue showed up at the shop, so we raced through it to find this…
