This is not a NEW RIDERS clinic, you must be able to ride at least a 10 mile loop with approx 1,000 feet of climbing. Our pace is slow but if this sounds like to much then you should first take our New Rider clinic with Bob Loeffler. If you are interested in a New Rider clinic look for those classes to start up very soon. If you dont see a clinic for New Riders posted please email me for more info.

New Rider Day Clinic with Bob Loeffler at Aliso Woods Whether you’ve been riding for a day or a year, the New Rider Day clinic is designed for anyone who needs to pick up (or brush up) on basic riding skills. The course will focus on the fundamentals of mountain biking: basic bike set-up, rudimentary riding techniques including climbing, descending, cornering, braking and shifting, plus trail essentials like repairs, etiquette and equipment selection.
The class will begin with an in-depth discussion followed by on-trail instruction and practical application. Participants can expect about an hour of shade-tree seminar, with about 2+ hours of fire road and singletrack fun. The ride is about 6 miles of mostly level trails, during which one-on-one instruction, critique and safety is emphasized. Plan on a minimum of 3 hours, and expect a little overtime.
Class size will be limited to a maximum of 10 and a minimum of 4 riders.
Come out and gain the confidence to ride better, faster and safer!
Life is short... ENJOY THE RIDE!
