Intro to Mountain Bike Day Camp
july 3rd - 7th, 2023
AGES: 7-11
This camp is geared towards those who are new to the wild and wonderful world of adventure by mountain bike. The camp day is shorter, and individual attention helps riders conquer small and large obstacles, while benefitting from the low pressue environment and encouragement from the group. We will practice our skills during group rides on Kingdom Trails and in the Burke Mountain Bike Park, while also leaving enough time for outdoor games, team-building challenges, and swimming. We may also begin a spontaneous game of camouflage in the woods as a way to loosen our single-track muscles and remind us of the most fundemental rule of mountain biking - it's fun!
MONDAY - FRIDAY, 9:30AM - 3:30PM
