Get ready to ride over more rocks and roots while finding smoother lines in a fun and controlled setting with some of the best coaches on the East Coast.

Whats the Riding Like?

We’ll start the day making sure your bikes are set up for optimal performance in challenging terrain. We’ll then spend time doing field exercises and drills to work on better body position while tackling obstacles and features you will find on trail. After lunch we will head to the trails to put the morning practice to the test on the legendary trails of Michaux.
