Womens Beginner Mountain Bike Retreat

Learn to ride in a safe, connective and supportive weekend. 

This is a true beginner's weekend! If you've never ridden, if you ride but struggle to keep up, if you don't know how to work the brakes... you're ALL in the right place! This is designed to be a connective and supportive space to learn- there will be no condescension, no feeling left behind. 
Our retreat follows our general class design- you'll learn about body position, braking, cornering, pedal position, riding obstacles, downhill, and more on our 1st day. 
Day 2 we will do a refresher of our skills and then take our skills onto the trail to put them into action. 
Our instructors are experienced, supportive, and wilderness first responder trained. We carry medical kits and have emergency plans. We love to share our mountain bike passion with others and our goal is to share the fun with you in an environment where you feel safe and supported.

Feeling nervous about being with a group of strangers? Feeling worried you can't "keep up"? Anxious that you won’t have enough steam for 2 days of riding? 
We've been there and we're here for that, too. Please reach out with any questions or hesitations! We are here to talk through it.
