Keep the progression flowing as we roll into fall with our Fall MTB Club. Now offering the weekend program.
With cooler temperatures and all-time conditions, fall is one of the best times to ride and improve when you feel the most comfortable on your bike after a summer of shredding.
During these seven weeks, we work through the 6-skills of mountain biking, using a mixture of fun, skill development drills and trail riding to develop technical proficiency.
- philosophy of teamwork
- growth mindset
- resilience
- humility.
This multi-week program gives them an excellent opportunity to learn as we can leave them with something to practice in between sessions each week. Working with them over seven weeks helps to maximize the progression.
Ultimately we aim to help them build on their biking skills while gaining the tools to succeed in life!
