This isn’t just some race for neighborhood bragging rights. This is the big one, the one for all the marbles, the one to crown the best-of-the-best. But more than all that, it’s a coming-together of the global Strider community

This is the Strider Cup World Championship.

Strider Cup Races give kiddos a chance to showcase their sweet riding skills while building confidence and laying the foundation for a lifetime of good sportsmanship. This unique race series caters directly to children 2–6 years old who want to experience the thrill of racing in a spirited, supportive atmosphere.

Along with our good friends Strider Japan, we’re on our mark and set to go with the first-ever World Championship outside the U.S., held May 27 and 28 in Osaka. Registration for this two-day race event will fill up quickly with hundreds of Strider Riders from across the globe. For those interested in arranging travel to Japan to compete, we’ll be providing additional details from Strider Japan as they’re communicated to us.

Only Strider brand balance bikes are permitted to race. Please take a moment to review the race rules.
