EL GRUPO and BICAS Present, Youth Summer Bike Camp: 2011

Tucson’s only Youth Summer Bike Camp is about more than just riding a bike...

Participating in Youth Summer Bike camp is about empowerment, building confidence, and above all- FUN!


Through our Youth Summer Bike Camp program your child’s confidence, knowledge, and skills increase in a safe, fun and peer-lead environment. Activities focus on developing safe-riding skills, mechanical knowledge, and how to choose safe routes to get to fun destinations through a series of hands-on experiences.

Each week long camp session costs $150. Campers begin and end each day at BICAS located at 44 West 6th Street, 6th Street and the train tracks, just north of downtown. Campers begin the day at 8am and end at 12:30pm.

2011 is the pilot year for the Youth Summer Bike Camp so information is subject to change. For the most up-to-date information please sign up on our email contact list.

El Grupo Youth Cycling



El Grupo is a non-profit youth cycling team in Tucson, Arizona that affords the opportunities of cycling to local teens who otherwise would not get the chance.

Our mission is to empower youth through bicycles.  We aim to instill life-long healthy habits and build character and camaraderie through bicycle advocacy, and riding and racing bicycles. We embrace all forms of cycling from road and mountain bike racing to bicycle touring and daily commuting. El Grupo uses the bicycle as a means for positive development for at-risk youth that would not otherwise have healthy, skill-building and goal-oriented activities in their lives.

We are getting youth on bikes, and they in turn are teaching and inspiring other kids (and adults) to ride, enjoy, and love bikes, too. El Grupo is developing the next generation of health-conscious, community-minded cycling enthusiasts in Tucson.
