Toddlers ages 2-5 are invited to participate in the Strider World Cup bicycling events on Saturday at the South Point in Las Vegas.

Strider Sports International, is bringing the Strider World Cup to Las Vegas for the USA BMX Las Vegas Nationals on July 14 at South Point Hotel & Casino, 9777 Las Vegas Blvd South, Las Vegas, NV 89183.

The season-long Strider World Cup™ series gives toddlers, ages two to five, the chance for friendly competition at events across the country. No prior experience needed! The Strider World Cup races are perfect for both beginners and more experienced riders alike.

The Strider World Cup race will drop the gate at 11:15am on Saturday, with registration from 7:30 to 9:30am. The whole family can enjoy the Strider experience at the Adventure Zone from 9am to 5pm Friday and Saturday. Toddlers can test ride their favorite Strider on the obstacle course while playing, learning, and socializing with peers on two wheels!

The event will use the patented Strider No Pedal Balance Bikes. These bikes were developed specifically to help toddlers and young children learn balance and coordination BEFORE pedaling.

USA BMX Strider memberships are available for $25. The membership includes the racer’s first Strider World Cup race and a USA BMX membership card. Participating in a race at any USA BMX National will qualify the racer for the Strider World Championship in Florida at Sarasota BMX this fall.

“At Strider Sports we are committed to supporting a fun, safe, and healthy lifestyle through bicycling,” said Strider Sports founder and CEO Ryan McFarland. “The USA BMX races are the perfect venue to showcase the Strider World Cup and the Strider Adventure Zone program which promote those goals. There is nothing quite like seeing a child overflow with confidence and self-esteem when they realize, ‘I did it!’ In that moment, you know they’ve found a love of cycling that will keep them fit and healthy for years to come.”
