Mountain Bike 101 / 201

This summer, we conducted Mountain Biking classes for kids.  What a success!  We had 12 kids ages 8 - 10 and 6 kids ages 11 - 12 complete Mountain Biking 101.   This was a week long introduction to mountain biking.  We started off by completing a safety check of each bike to ensure they could endure the week.  The whole week focused on developing the skills to begin riding trails. 

After completing this course, many of these kids continued on to complete Mountain Biking 201.  This class further developed the skills learned in 101, plus included daily rides on the trails.  By the end of each day, the kids were tired but proud of what they had accomplished. 

Next year, we plan to offer the classes once again starting in June.  Contact us for more information.

        

Double Divide Ride

The Helena Bicycle Club hosted the annual Double Divide Ride the weekend of August 4th and 5th. As one rider stated, "Good people, great climbing, lots of food, and nice lodge - what more could a guy or gal ask for!"  If you weren't able to make it this year, it's definitely a ride worth planning for next year!
