Strider Cup racing is taking over the Square in downtown Bentonville!
Get ready Arkansas, because Strider Cup Racing is about to take over the Square in downtown Bentonville on September 23rd! These tiny riders will be racing their hearts out and shredding some serious rubber as they put their Strider skills to the test!
Strider Cup races are the highest level national Strider sanctioned races that give small children a chance to put their Strider Balance Bike skills to the test at several stops across the USA and worldwide. These unique Strider organized and operated events cater directly to children 2-4 year old’s who want to experience the thrill of racing. Children of all sizes and skill levels are welcome to participate. Strider No-Pedal Balance Bikes are developed for both learning the ropes of riding and honing advanced skills in racing.
Online pre-registration is required for the 2, 3, and 4-year-old classes, and online registration ends at 12:00 p.m. MDT on Friday, September 22nd. There will be no registrations after that time or on race day.
Only one racer is allowed to register per form. To register multiple riders, repeat the registration process for each racer.

Prior to racing, all bikes must pass a tech inspection by Strider Officials to ensure that they are properly maintained, properly fitted, in good working order, and in compliance with race rules.
We highly recommend attending packet pickup on Friday evening to allow sufficient time for inspection, attaching the number plate, reviewing the race day schedule and format, and getting answers to any other questions you may have to get your rider ready for race day. If you are unable to attend on Friday, inspections on Saturday open an hour before the start of racing.
