Strider Races are community events throughout the U.S. that build confidence in young riders as they show off their balancing and riding skills. The Strider Cup Races are competitive play experiences designed for children ages 2-6 to explore the structure of an organized and competitive race in a family-friendly environment. The Strider Cup World Championship is the pinnacle of the Strider Cup Races that brings together Strider riders and families from all over the globe.
