About This Activity
Description
This 3-day mini-session is for middle school riders looking to have fun while building endurance, refining techniques, and gaining confidence on real trails!
Riders will complete longer trail rides to develop stamina while working through in-depth sessions on trail obstacles like rocks, roots, and other technical features.
Riders will also learn trailside maintenance and bike mechanics, participate in trail stewardship projects, and explore the natural environment—identifying trees, bird calls, and animal tracks along the way.
The mini-session emphasizes progression, teamwork, responsibility, and fun in a supportive, hands-on setting.
What to bring: Two water bottles, sunscreen, snack, lunch, and rain gear as needed (to be carried by the rider in a frame bag, hip pack, backpack, etc)
