Summer Camps

Designed for kids that know how to bike but have not ridden trails, or are very new to trail riding. Riders will build confidence while learning the fundamentals of mountain biking, including body position, braking, cornering and trail safety.

*A mountain bike with working hand brakes, a water pack or two water bottles, and a properly fitted mountain bike helmet are required.

Prerequisites

• Confident on two wheels

• New to dirt and trails

• Interested in trying out mountain biking and learning the skills in a safe, progressive and confidence inspiring way

Designed for riders who are not brand new to mountain biking but are still developing their skills. One season of riding experience is recommended. Riders will focus on refining braking, cornering, pumping, climbing, descending, line choice, and bike control while applying those skills on longer trail rides to build confidence, endurance, and efficiency.

*a well-maintained mountain bike with sealant in the tires is needed. We don't want to lose time because of mechanical issues.

Prerequisites

• Recommeded at least one season of mountain bike experience. 

• Willing to pedal up sustained climbs with minimal breaks

• Able to shift gears, stand while braking and comfortable with ready/neutral position on-trail.

Designed for strong intermediate riders, this camp builds on core mountain bike skills such as braking, cornering, pumping, climbing, descending, and line choice, while introducing riders to small trail features in a safe, controlled, and confidence-building environment. Riders will learn proper technique for tabletop jumps (1–2 bike lengths) and beginner drops, with a strong emphasis on progression, body position, and knowing when they are ready. This is a great opportunity for riders who are eager to get their wheels off the ground—and do it the right way. 

Prerequisites

• Confident on trails and ready for long, steady climbs without walking

• Riders do not already need to know how to jump. If they do, that's great, but it is not a prerequisite.
