Want to get better at riding your mountain bike on the trails?
Interested in participating in your first mountain bike race?
Have no idea where do start?
Have you done some mountain bike racing and you're looking to improve your skills and confidence?
Then this clinic is for you!
This clinic is geared both those who are interested in mountain bike racing as well as those who aren't into racing (yet!) and want to improve their riding skills.
Join us on Saturday, September 7, 2019, at Lewis Morris Park in Mendham, NJ for three hours of instruction, skills drills, practice, and trail riding fun! Coach Brian Lariviere is ready to help you learn about the fun and exciting sport of mountain biking and take your skills to the next level.
This is also the perfect kick-off to the following weekend's Girls, Guts, and Glory at Lewis Morris Park! We'll be riding some of the race course and helping to improve your comfort level for that super event. Girls, Guts, and Glory is on Sunday, September 15, 2019. The event serves as a fundraiser for the Mental Health Association of Essex and Morris County. 100% of all donations will go directly to the Mental Health Association. However, you don't need to be participating in the duathlon to attend the clinic.
Registration is capped at twelve (12) participants.
Develop your skills and learn drills you can do on your own.
Please plan to arrive by 8:45 am for sign-in.
We'll have a short discussion period then grab our bikes for skills and drills!
