Description:
Our Intermediate Mountain Biking program is designed for riders who now have experience riding on single track and varied terrain and can cover large distances on their bike. Participants must have bikes with a minimum of 24” wheels and a minimum of front suspension. This program will focus on improving their mountain bike skills (program outline below). This 1.5-hour session will feature a 45-minute lesson focusing on a new skill each week with the remaining time spent practicing that skill, completing drills, and free-ride practicing on single-track trails.
This program will teach the following specific skills:
- Eyesight: where to look and how this affects riding
- Wheelies and small level rock drops
- Approaching and navigating a “level 2” rock garden
- Ratcheting over small to medium features
- Ascending and descending steeper hills
- Shifting gears with confidence and ensuring the rider is in the right gear
- Accelerating through the terrain by pumping
