Benefits of Being a TFK Chapter

  • Trips for Kids has an excellent reputation with the cycling industry, media and funders. We have proven to be a positive force in children's lives and demonstrated to donors our responsible use of both funding and equipment.
  • Chapters receive the use of our well-know name and logo free of charge.
  • In most cases, after new chapters have booked two rides, we will be able to provide start-up equipment. The equipment includes:
    • 5 new mountain bikes
    • 10 helmets
    • 1 Park Tool stand & tool kit
    • 10 Trips For Kids t-shirts
    • 10 water bottles
    • 5 water bottle cages
    • 5 clam packs
    • 12 tubes
    • 2 frame pumps
    • 2 portable first aid kits
    • Clif Bars for your rides
    We cannot provide enough equipment for an entire program, but it can get you rolling on a ride with small groups of kids as you build your fleet and your presence in the community.
  • We can provide assistance in getting additional bikes and equipment at discount prices for your program.
  • Trips For Kids has decades of experience in running a rides program. We share this knowledge freely with our chapters.
  • You will become part of a larger community of people who are dedicated to sharing the joy of mountain biking with kids. With this comes a built-in network of support including an annual newsletter, monthly updates, and frequent email communication with a network of Trips for Kids chapter directors to keep us all up-to-date, brainstorming and inspiring one another.
  • We host a conference for all of our chapters. The conference is a great opportunity to see a Trips For Kids ride in action, share ideas, and inspire each other.
  • As a Trips For Kids chapter you are automatically an affiliated club member of IMBA. Visit www.imba.com to learn about the benefits for which you are eligible.
