PMC Kids Rides became an official PMC program in 2005 as a way to include young cyclists in the Pan-Massachusetts Challenge mission raising money for cancer research & treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute through its Jimmy Fund

5 Route Options:

1. Tykes Yellow Loop: Easy flat loop in parking lot next to the Visitors Center for the youngest riders on tricycles, bicycles with training wheels, and Balance Bikes (bicycles without pedals). A parent is required to remain at that Loop and supervise their rider from the side of the Loop.

2. 1-mile Green Loop: A 1-mile paved loop.Ride it once or ride it several times! Volunteers on bikes and on foot supervise the riders. NO training wheels will be allowed on this loop!

3. 4-mile Blue Loop: A 4-mile paved loop. Ride it twice for a bigger challenge! Volunteers on bikes and on foot supervise the riders. NO training wheels will be allowed on this loop!

4. 2-mile Orange Loop: A 2-mile unpaved loop on mountain bike trail in the park for the novice mountain biker. Requires a mountain bike with 24” wheels or smaller.Ride twice if time permits. Plan to meet your child at a pre-designated spot, to avoid confusion.

Volunteers:
There are lots of volunteer opportunities available for those ages 14 and up. Please consider volunteering! We could not hold this event without our valued volunteers!

Please visit our volunteer registration page to see all available positions and to register.

We can always use volunteers…especially as Route Guides and Bike Marshals to help us direct riders around the loops.

Here’s your chance to be in the action – and to wear a cool Volunteer T-shirt.
