Have you attended our Level 1 and 2 beginner’s course and are ready to add more fundamental skills? If so, join
our BICP certified mountain bike instructor, Ranger Rick, at the Limekiln trailhead to learn the basics of slow riding,
obstacle avoidance, and cornering. In the Beginner’s Level 3 course, you’ll learn:
? Riding straight lines (preparation for narrow trails and features)
? Ratcheting (riding slowly and avoiding pedal strikes)
? Riding small circles
? Riding switchbacks
? Rock dodge maneuver
? Cornering
? Roll downs off of features
You will learn these skills at the Limekiln Trailhead parking lot to give you a safe surface to learn on prior to getting on
the dirt. After each skill has been thoroughly explained and demonstrated by the instructors, you be given plenty of
practice time in the parking lot with the instructors helping you improve with each repetition. After lesson is over, head
out onto our trails to practice and hone your new skills!
