Born in 1989-1996
Geared towards experienced mountain bikers looking to push their abilities and develop skills in freeride and downhill mountain biking. Riding will focus on safety, exploration, riding natural and man-made terrain, bike maintenance, bike control, jumping, trail etiquette, trail maintenance, self sufficiency and above all, FUN!
Participants must provide their own equipment (see list of required and suggested equipment below). Coaches will help make experienced decisions on what terrain is appropriate for individual athleteÕs abilities. All Coaches are First Aid certified and will have First Aid kits. Participants will travel in JHSC vehicles to/from riding venues. There will be optional overnight trips to other freeride/downhill venues. Participants will be required to donate time to building and maintaining the trails we use. Enrollment is limited, full-summer participants will have priority.
