Over the course of each week, campers will work with coaches to develop their mountain bike skills with fun drills and focused flatland work in the grass fields, and then apply those skills out on the trails. South Germantown Recreational Park is conveniently located with quick access to multiple area trail networks that campers will get to experience. These will include, but are not limited to:

• Germantown Bike Park Pump Track

• Schaeffer Farms

• Skills Park featuring Teeter Totters, Ladder Bridges, and Rock Gardens

• Black Hill Regional Park

After drop-off at South Germantown Recreational Park each morning, coaches will lead unique mountain bike skills drills, and then the trail riding begins! We will ride new trials most days while highlighting the skills we recently learned, and then revisit certain trails throughout the week to see just how much we've advanced and the observe the progress everyone has made. We will stop to hydrate and stay fueled up as needed throughout the day, and take breaks for lunch in the shade of the pavilion near the pump track.

While all camp weeks will follow a similar structure, campers are welcome and encouraged to attend multiple weeks. Coaches will work with return campers to progress their skills with more advanced instruction, as well as offer longer riding opportunities as fitness progresses. All campers that register for more than one week receive a 10% discount on their additional weeks!
