Through the program, you can learn the basics of mountain biking with a professional mountain bike instructor. The course covers park safety, gear, stance and technique to ensure a safe and fun ride.

As part of the program, you’ll get a 2-hour bike rental, lift ticket, and 2-hour lesson.

Lessons run at 12:00 PM and at 2:30 PM. Spokesperson Sheila Rivers says anyone can take part.

“We recommend children 8 and over [take part] but it’s up to their ability level, but really it’s for anyone from kids, to yourself, your parents, [and] your friends. You can bring the whole family up. We also have a family package that’s included within this special sale week.”
