RESERVE A LOANER BIKE

We have a small fleet of Specialized Bikes and Smith Helmets available for use during Pedal Palooza. These bikes and helmets are available free of charge, but we ask that you only reserve a bike for a child who currently does not own a bike. It is our goal to introduce as many people to the sport as possible, which is why we want to reserve our loaner fleet for those families without a bike.

  • Bikes are sized based on the child’s inseam. By choosing the bike size that most closely fits your child, you will help ensure the bike fits them properly.

  • Should your desired size be sold out, you can add yourself to the waitlist. If someone does not show up on event day, we will offer bikes to those on the waitlist.

  • Those who desire to use a loaner bike must arrive by 9:30 a.m. on event day to allow our team time to properly fit the bike to the participant.

Loaner Bike & Helmet - Pedal Palooza 3

You are reserving a loaner bike and helmet for the Pedal Palooza event on 5/4 in Newnan, GA. Please select the bike size based on the inseam of the child that will be riding the bike.

    While we will make every effort to accommodate late arrivals, it may be impossible to add someone to a group past the start time. Therefore, to ensure your child can get the most out of the event, please be on-site and checked in by 10 a.m.
