This clinic is designed for emerging trail riders who may have limited experience riding singletrack, or for more experienced riders looking to solidify their basics. We will hone in on the foundational skills of mountain biking to find more flow and comfort riding singletrack. Emphasis will be placed on body position, discovering our range of motion on our bikes, braking, climbing and shifting, and an introduction to cornering.
This clinic can be paired with our Fundamentals II Clinic, or stand alone. Skills learned in Fundamentals I progress well into Fundamentals II. For those looking for more advanced and dynamic skill work, you may want to step ahead to Fundamentals II.
