About This Activity
Description
The Beginner MTB Camp will be an introduction to trail riding, in both Upper and Lower Bidwell Park. During the week of camp, the ride leaders will teach the fundamentals of mountain biking, emphasizing building confidence on the bike. We will focus on bike control, safety awareness, and respect towards both teammates and the park. Of course, we will provide a safe and fun social environment for these new mountain bikers! Drop off and go pickup will be at the public bathrooms at 5 Mile, off of 375 Centennial Avenue. Please be prompt so your rider doesn’t miss the fun ride ahead. Riders must be comfortable riding a bike. All riders are required to bring a helmet, working bike, plenty of water and snacks (these are highly important), sturdy shoes with laces tucked away, and a small backpack for personal belongings, to carry out waste, as well as items for repairs on the trail (Extra inner tube, patch kit for leaks, and Allen wrenches). If tools can not be provided by the parents/rider, coaches have tools to help the rider in case of need. We will be sure to have fun and cool off in the creek on every ride, it is recommended that the riders have clothes that they are comfortable to swim in, and a towel if needed.
