Foundational Skills Series (previously known as Beginner Skills Series)
We know what it’s like to feel nervous and intimidated on the trails! We’ve helped hundreds of women build confidence and skills to get them smiling out on the trails and we would love to help you too!
Our signature Foundational Skills Series consists of 2x face to face skills clinics, usually over a weekend (5hrs in total) on mostly green cross country mountain bike trails at Stromlo Forest Park, Canberra (Mount Stromlo). This series teaches the foundational skills for mountain biking, which is perfect for beginners but also for anyone who has never done a skills clinic and wants to go back to the foundations and/or to build confidence.
Our clinics are fun, friendly and supportive, with a focus on keeping you safe and smiling. Our progressive coaching style means you gain confidence in each skill before moving onto another so you never feel out of your depth.
Our expertise in women’s mountain biking means you get good advice and tips that have been gathered from coaching and listening to the specific issues women face when it comes to mountain biking over the past 10 years.
You’ll learn about bike set-up, body position, gears and braking. You will learn how to safely mount and dismount and start/stop on varying terrain. You’ll also learn some cornering, as well as skills for climbing and descending. By the end of the clinic you’ll be starting to tie all of these things together and be feeling much more confident and safe and enjoying the ride a whole lot more!
Bike Tech Night included
As part of our Foundational Skills Series, you will also receive a free registration for our bike tech session ‘The Basics - Trailside Maintenance and Repairs’ which runs quarterly at our partner bike shop Cycle Coop in Phillip. This will set you up for success on your mountain bike journey and help you to keep your bike running smoothly and safely and give you confidence to do some basic trailside repairs if you ever need to!
Once you have booked in, you will receive a code to enable you to register in whichever session suits.
