20 million kids on bikes – that’s Our Mission! Through a collective effort with others, we are working to return youth cycling participation to the levels found in the year 2000. In the year 2000, there were nearly 20 million kids riding bikes each year in the US. Sadly, today there is half that number yet the population has grown over 12%. Together, let’s work to rebuild youth cycling and get 20M kids riding again in the US!
How We Do It:
Why This Matters:
Through providing adequate biking education for both parents and children, we champion the broader life skills children acquire from biking, such as self-confidence, resilience, connection to nature, and connection to community.
Our ultimate vision is a greener, more connected community, where the children of today become the inspired leaders of tomorrow thanks to the power of the bicycle.
Turning Rides into Revolution.
We’re not just teaching kids to ride, we’re trying to spark a new era of connection, wellness, and exploration through bicycles.
A movement that revolts against the sedentary, screen-based, modern childhood, championing instead the joyful revolutions of bicycle pedals as a path to wellness, connection, and discovery. This isn’t just about teaching kids to ride—it’s about transforming families and communities, one pedal stroke at a time, into a movement of health, empowerment, and shared outdoor adventure.
Together, we’re building a revolution that revolves around kindness, resilience, and the simple, powerful act of riding.
And the revolution happens outside!

We Believe:
At Buddy Pegs Bike Shop, we are driven by purpose: to create a kinder more connected world. We believe that the path to a healthier, more sustainable world begins with fostering a deep connection between communities through cycling.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are not just ideals; they are essential components. We recognize that a healthier world for all can only be achieved when everyone has the opportunity to engage with one another, participate and thrive. The bicycle, in its simplicity and universality, serves as an extraordinary vehicle for connection. A tool that brings people together, fostering a sense of community, understanding, mutual respect, and mutual purpose.
Our STOKE values:
Stewardship, Teamwork, Ownership, Kindness, and Empathy – are the guiding principles that drive us forward. Kindness and Empathy, in particular, are the cornerstones of these values. They are the foundations that empower us to be better stewards of our planet, to work effectively as a team, and to take ownership of our actions and their impact on the world.
Building a More Connected, Respectful, and Empathetic Community
Through our commitment to these values, we strive to create an inclusive cycling community. A community where every child feels valued and empowered, where differences are celebrated, and where empathy and kindness lead the way in every interaction.
At Buddy Pegs Bike Shop, we are more than a cycling program; we are a movement towards a more connected, respectful, and empathetic world – one pedal stroke at a time.
We believe that bicycling delivers a childhood full of outdoor adventure, critical lifelong leadership skills, and a gateway to environmental stewardship our planet so clearly needs.
Today’s kids will be the ones preserving our home planet for future generations…. Or not.
From that perspective, it’s not just the responsibility of government and business to save our home planet, we’re all in this together.
