    Mountain Bike Camp for those looking to ride on skill-level appropriate mountain bike trails, plus gravel, and pavement.

    What to expect:

    Participants will review/learn

    ~ basic on the trail bike handling skills. (controlled braking, shifting, steering, speed control, cornering, bike-body separation, balance, riding/mounting/dismounting on level ground and low grade inclines/declines, in a controlled environment.

    ~ terminology, parts of the bike and how to keep everything in great working order.

    ~ On The Bike rules, safety and trail riding etiquette.

    ~ preview trails, pre-ride, re-ride, free ride singlet track

    ~ introduction to trail features (rock gardens, log-overs)

    How will they Learn?

    Participants will learn

    ~ with coach-led demonstrations

    ~ through skill sessions

    ~ on the bike games

    ~ Rides on grass, pavement (SRT), and trails.

    What To Bring:

    ~We highly recommend a mountain bike or a hybrid bike for Mountain Bike Camp.

    ~ Ideally, the bike should have shifting gears, *knobby tires (no slick or bald tires), well-fitted, and in great working condition.

    *Please take your bike to a bike shop for a tune up before camp begins: a bike that breaks on the trail can be a real bummer. Make sure the brakes work, the chain is not rusty or stiff, the tires are in good condition (no dry-rot) and all the nuts and bolts are secure.

    ~A well-fitted helmet in great condition. No cracks or dents- protect those noggins.

    ~A water bottle (or two) or a hydration pack

    ~Closed-toe, secure shoes. No sandals, flip-flops-or crocs.

    ~Snacks (none sharing). Nutritious, skip the high sugar. The rider is the engine, proper nutrition before and during camp will make for a better experience.

    ~Personal medicine if needed: Inhalers, Epipens..etc.

    For Adventure Bike Camp: most bikes are great. While a mountain bike is ideal, if you have a traditional single-gear bike, we can work with you! Reach out to us [email protected], give us a heads up.

    Highly Recommended:

    ~protective eyewear

    ~sunscreen & bug/tick repellent

    ~bike gloves

    ~padded bike shorts ?TRUST US!

    Please reach out to your local bike shop now, to make sure your kiddo has a great camp experience later!

    *All bikes should have a tune-up at least once a year.

    Doing so saves money, keeps your bike in good condition, can prevent mechanical failures, and offers safety and security while riding your bike.

    *Make sure: the brakes work, the tires are NOT dry rotted and have good tread, fill up the tires with air to make sure the inner-tubes are in great working order. ~~*If the tires loose air, that means the bike needs new inner-tubes.

    *Make sure the chain is not rusty, it has been properly oiled and moves freely along the gears.

    *If your bike has gears, please make sure all the gars can work, and that the chain works well on the gears.

    Don't hesitate to take your bike to a bike shop to have them take a look and see how they can help you get your bike in great working order!
