Beginner/Newbie MTB Clinic
Are you new to mountain biking? Are you a little nervous or intimidated on the rides? Does riding over rocks scare you or are you unsure of what to do? Get a new bike for Xmas and want to learn about it? Practicing braking, shifting, balance, riding over small obsticals will be the core of this ride. Well, lets go for a ride along some of the Granite Bay trails and learn some skills that you can build on as you ride. This ride is intended for new or newer riders to the dirt. We will be stopping as needed to give everyone opportunities to practice there dirt riding skills.
Bring a MTB bike in good working condition, a helmet and a fun attitude for few hours of riding. Rain will not cancel this ride, however heavy rain may. Call me if you have any questions. [masked]

Roger - it is not a wheelie contest. It is for new folks who are new to the dirt. And then getting folks out on the trail. This ride will not be a showboat event. Please check your ego at the trail head.

Thanks to Phred for setting this up, and to all those who helped. Tons of good advice in a low pressure setting.
I guess there is life beyond drop bars and skinny tires. ;)
