Ride Program Description & Coaching: 

Our Ride programs are the entrance for many young people into the sport of mountain biking. It all begins with our coaches creating positive experiences out on the trails. With gradual skill progression and safe and fun guiding, our goal is to equip young riders with the fundamentals that they need to be safe, strong, and confident riders.

Suitable for beginner through intermediate riders ages 6-7 years. Riders are grouped into pods of 4-5 based on their age and ability level, and friends they want to ride with. 

Each ride is part on trail lesson, part guided ride. Our coaches progress their riders through the 6 core MTB skills, over the course of the program. We strive to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment for young riders to build their courage and confidence. Small groups ensure individual attention and feedback. 

Our coaches are PMBIA and FA certified, and bring years of riding and instructing experience to each guided ride. Our priorities out on the trails are always: safety, fun, and learning. Through a combination of individual and group feedback, we make sure that each rider is being met where they're at, and taught the skills they need to thrive on their bike. 

Our Ride Philosophy:

We see mountain biking as one big metaphor for life. Learn what your strengths are and refine them, find out where you're weakest, and practice and improve that part of yourself. Set your sights for the top of the big hill and climb it one pedal stroke at a time. Enjoy the views from the top, and then descend with focus and flow. 

Major outcomes of our club program for our riders are: improved self-esteem; increased physical fitness and strength; resiliency and resolve; calculated risk-taking, and pro-social values through new friendships and positive mentoring from our coaches.
