Programs

Bikes Over Bang'N works with at risk males ages 6-17 years old. Our goal is to create opportunities for children to develop, interests, skills and cultural awareness. We strive to accomplish that goal by providing positive role models for youth in Bikes Over Bang’N.

Each workshop has guest speakers from surrounding areas that like to share their story. 

Life skills workshops consist of: 

  • Gang prevention and intervention,

  • Alcohol and Drug use prevention and intervention

  • Job and Career Development,

  • Safety Awareness/ fundamental of Riding

  • Unity and Peace

  • Decision and Goal Making Skills

  • Educational Enhancement

  • Respect and Teamwork

  • Counseling Services / Group sessions

We provide a safe and structured place for the youth to ride.  We teach youth how to ride safely and responsibly. We mentor the youth through riding by holding them accountable, teaching them to be respectful in their relationships and daily life. 

These activities include but are not limited to:

  • Feeding the homeless

  • Painting over graffiti

  • Picking up trash in local neighborhoods.

This part of our program is to encourage our youth to give back and encourage their friends and family to do so as well.

B.O.B. Activities

Activities may include sporting games, field trips to dirt tracks to watch races, stunt rides, competition rides, parties, movies, BBQ’s and more.

Mentor

We often read about our young men becoming high school dropouts, committing crimes, engaging in gang related acts of violence, selling or using drugs, or becoming victims of gun violence at an early age.  Most kids feel lost and lack structure in their life. Without positive motivation or direction, they become a product of their environment.  There are limited male role models that can relate to our youth and expose them to positive opportunities. We are always looking for mentors willing to dedicate time and offer guidance and encouragement.  

Youth need different options. They need support, safety and guidance. Sometimes youth struggle to find a successful way out of their environment, Bikes Over Bang’n will provide that way.  Our program is centered on the needs of the youth.
