Seacoast VeloKids is a non-profit organization dedicated to the introduction and promotion of cycling to the youth of New Hampshire and Maine's Seacoast communities. Currently we are developing a mountain biking program, with a five-year vision to expand into multiple disciplines across a variety of age groups. Our goal is to promote cycling as a lifelong activity as part of a healthy lifestyle.
SVK and the Pandemic:
Summer:
COVID dealt a blow to Seacoast VeloKids forcing us to cancel our annual Brews and Bites fundraiser in April and our annual Take A Kid Mountain Biking Day in May. Being the plucky organization that we are, we made a comeback, hosting our weekly summer ride program at Stratham Hill Park on Sundays through the end of August.
Fall:
Our annual fall events which consists of youth events at both Orchard Cross and The King Challenge are both cancelled due to the cancellation of those events.
Race Team:
Our race team, Seacoast VeloRacing, continues this year as part of the NEHSCA league and while normally racing in spring COVID had a say and we are now racing in Fall. 50 kids are on the team this year and we continue practices twice a week with racing starting in September.
2021
We are planning a full comeback to normal schedules as soon as possible with Take a Kid Mountain Biking on June 6th, 2021. Stay tuned for more details.
Remember that Kids+Bikes=:) and be safe - wear a mask!
