Flight School at the Dirt Disco

"DROPPIN"

Overview

Drops are becoming a staple of modern trail systems because they are incredibly fun. However, they must be ridden with proper technique and discretion. The worst advice you can get is to "just get back and send it."

Mountain biking risks can be greatly mitigated with good technique and a realistic perception of your ability. Our goal is to help you start small, build deep confidence, and eventually master the "A" lines with serious flow.

  • What: A 2.5-hour skills clinic focused on the mechanics of safely handling drops.

  • Goal: Learn to get both wheels off the ground confidently, even if it is just a few inches.

Who This Is For

  • Ideal for: Riders with a solid mountain biking foundation who are new to getting their wheels off the ground.

    The Gillie Girl Sprint Triathlon is located approximately 2 miles off Route 5 near West Hill Golf Course at the Intersection of Ike Dixon Road between Sand Road and Gillie Brook Road. The swim is 1/2 mile (2 loops) in a natural, spring fed Gillie Lake, a relatively flat 15 mile bike course and a spectator friendly 5k run to round out the course. This is a great event for all women - first time racers, seasoned triathletes and relay teams. Come join the 13th Annual Gillie Girl Sprint Triathlon, it's a spectator friendly course, and family atmosphere.

    The 2024 edition will include the sprint triathlon (individual and relay) and Aquabike (swim, bike). This race category is popular with those not ready to run the 5k stance for whatever reason. Racers will swim and ride the same courses as those in the triathlon, but when you are done biking, you are finished with the race. We welcome you to the race infield to enjoy food and drink and cheer on your friends and/or family still on the racecourse!
