Bike Rodeo
The Bicycle Rodeo is a riding course designed to teach young children the importance of bicycle safety and to help them develop the skills they will need to be safe while riding their bicycles. Pilot Club-sponsored bike rodeos are held at the local elementary schools, with miles of duct tape being used to design the four events the young participants will tackle during the rodeo. Pilot Club members direct and score all the events after a team has performed a safety inspection on each bicycle.
Certificates and ribbons are awarded by the Pilot Club to all rodeo participants, with bicycle helmets being presented to the top three boys and top three girls in each grade level. The bicycle rodeo is a favorite activity among all the Pilot Club members.
