Free Spring and Summer Riding Program, April 7th-August 25th, 2025

We have developed a spring and summer program for the next generation of road riders! 

Kids ages 7+ years old will be able to ride with elite-level riders, including former professional racers Chris and Megan Horner, and Janel Spilker (when available). 

April 7th-June 9th, we will have riding sessions from 4:00 p.m.-5:30 p.m. on Mondays.  Meeting at local elementary schools throughout the spring.

Our summer program begins June 16th and ends August 25th. We meet on Mondays from 10 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The meeting location will fluctuate but will always be based in Bend.

The focus will be on safety, proper riding technique and fun.  Our hope is that we instill a life-long love of the sport of cycling. 

If a rider cannot make all the Monday sessions, that is fine.  They will just need to connect with molly@hornerlawllp.com and let her know at least a few days before the session. Please fill out the Rider Registration forms return to molly@hornerlawllp.com.  Any questions, call 541-480-6975.

The reason that our program and our races are free for juniors is to remove any financial barriers to accessing road cycling.  This program is designed to reach out to juniors of all socio-economic backgrounds.  

The Loaner Bike Library has been established by the Horner Cycling Foundation and has over 20 bikes of various sizes for youth.  These bikes are available to any junior that would like to ride in the program.

The Bend Summer Criterium Series will take place June 25, July 2, 9, 16 and 23, 2025.  Location is TBD.  Kids that are between 4-8 years old will race one lap around the course starting at 4:50 p.m.  Kids ages 9-12 will race a 15–20-minute race starting at 5:05 p.m.  We encourage all kids to come out and take advantage of this great opportunity.  

The Horner Cycling Foundation is also putting on the Cascade Cycling Classic Criterium in downtown Bend, Oregon on June 14.  Junior races and a kiddie crit will take place as well.  Details about the race are at www.cascadecyclingclassic.com.
