YOUTH EN ROUTE

Cycling is freedom!

We are working to empower healthier youth to have the agency to get around their communities independently.

About Youth En Route

Our cycling education programs support enhanced curriculum delivery in schools. Cycling is a life skill that builds confidence, community and reduces transportation poverty. After our programs, students can go where they want, when they want.

Here is what we do

Youth En Route empowers youth with skill and equipment to choose active travel to pedal their path
