Beginners Mountain Bike Course
Beginners Mountain Bike Course
DESCRIPTION: This is the perfect way to get a kick start into mountain biking, and find out what all the fuss is about! Your 2.5 hour course will teach beginner riders skills and techniques which will help you increase your confidence as a rider, and you will get to practice them on some of the best trails in Forrest, Victoria.
If you have just purchased a mountain bike, are looking at trying mountain biking, or if you want to take your riding off the dirt roads and commuter paths and onto the single track, then this beginners course is for you!
This course is suited to beginner riders aged from 15 and upwards, and if you can ride a bike on a path then we can teach you how to ride on singletrail. Your experience begins when you arrive 15 minutes prior to the course commencing. Once filling in a few items of paperwork and adjusting your mountain bike, your instructor will take you through a quick safety briefing and instructions on trail etiquette in groups. You will then have a 5 minute warm up while your instructor outlines the skills you will be taught during the course.
Some of the skills and techniques you will learn include;
- Looking Ahead: practice focusing on the trail ahead of you, not what is in front of you.
- Riding Smoother: less braking, look through the corners, body position/s on bike, relaxed upper body and hand grip, pump the trail.
You will get to practice these skills on easier trails with varied terrain, with approximately 10-20 other riders during your 2.5 hour course.
VENUE: Forrest, Victoria. Approximately 2 hours from Melbourne CBD.
