Waddup,
Sujith and I are back for another great year of mountain biking, and starting it off is this pre-classes beginner ride!
Whether your an incoming first year, or old 4th year like me, come learn the basics of mountain biking in our own backyard over on O-Hill. All you need to know how to do is ride a bike, and we’ll teach you everything else you need to know to be safe and steezy on the trails. We will be going slow and taking lots of breaks, this trip is focused on learning how to mountain bike not testing physical limits.
If you don’t have your own mountain bike or helmet, let me know on the trip questionnaire and we’ll try to secure you a club bike/helmet. Everyone will be waitlisted for this trip initially and depending on bike availability individuals will be taken off the wait list accordingly.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me (434-270-1818).
What you need:
– Water (Either a bottle that will fit in a bottle cage, or bring a small backpack/hip pack to hold it)
– Gloves (optional)
– Closed-toe shoes
– Weather appropriate clothing
What the club will provide:
– Bikes
– Helmets
The plan:
5:00pm- meet at the shred shack a grab a bike for everyone
5:15pm- Ride up O-hill
7:00pm- back at the shred shack
The timing on the plan is flexible to how people are feeling after some biking, we can always end early if people are tired, but this time we probably wont be going much later since I have some commitments after this.
