CANCELED SKILLS CLINIC: MTB Foundations – Intermediate
Wednesday, April 26 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
MTB Skills Clinic
MTB Foundations: Intermediate
WHO THIS CLINIC IS FOR
You’ve been mountain biking long enough to be comfortable on singletrack trails. You know how to shift and brake and are comfortable at a trail area like Betasso. You’ve either never taken a skills clinic or want a refresher. While this is not a sequel to the Beginner clinic, it would be appropriate to take this class if you’ve taken Beginner and want to reinforce and refine the same skills.
DESCRIPTION
