Two Wheel View, Inc.

Two Wheel View provides creative, interactive, and fun educational activities for undeserved youth through local, regional and international bicycle adventures. Our programs include a Youth Mountain Biking Program and a School/Community based Educational Program. Trips for Kids - Twin Cities works with youth organizations to provide FREE mountain bike outings and environmental education for kids who would not otherwise have these opportunities. Our mission is to combine lessons in personal responsibility, achievement and environmental awareness through development of practical skills and the simple act of biking.

Ride participants learn biking skills, safety, and trail etiquette. We stress the importance of one's own actions both on and off the trail.
We expose young people to environmental and community issues and illustrate that life in non-urban and urban settings is connected. Through these programs, we foster a care for the natural world and its inhabitants.

Two Wheel View's school programs include presentations and curriculum. A digital slide show of the founders' two-year bike trip around the world introduces students to images of the people, cultures and environments of the world from the seat of a bike - a "Two Wheel View." Customized programs with pictures and curriculum are designed to create a real life connection between what is being taught in the classroom and the world we live. Students are engaged in the adventure of learning by seeing, hearing, and interacting with Two Wheel View staff and volunteers who have traveled and lived with diverse groups of people, cultures and environments of the world. Our curriculum also stresses the three pillars on which Two Wheel View was founded- cultural diversity, social awareness, and environmental stewardshiand Two Wheel View also presents to companies and organizations, as well as schools.
