Join mountain bike instructor, Jen Braddock, on Sunday November 5, 2023, for a one-day intermediate-level CORNERING mountain bike skills clinic at Mulberry Gap. .

Would you like to sign up a youth rider for this clinic? Here are the things to know: 

  1. Youth ages 13+ are welcome to participate in the “Beginner MTB Skills”Clinics and the “Jumps & Drops for Intermediate/Advanced Riders” clinics. Please be sure that your youth rider has the appropriate skills to participate in the clinic as they will not be able to drop behind or opt out of traveling with the group.

  2. These are adult-geared clinics, so it’s important youth participants are ready to be focused, responsible, and ready to participate alongside mature adult learners.

  3. Parents/Guardians do NOT need to remain with their youth rider during the clinic, but must be certain to sign by the Mulberry Gap waiver and the Instructor’s waiver.

  4. Youth under age 13 are welcome to participate in the Skills Clinic ONLY when a parent or guardian is also registered to participate in the clinic.

If you have more questions about registering a youth rider to participate in a clinic, please reach out to us anytime at reservations@mulberrygap.com

is this the clinic for you?

This class is designed for the intermediate rider who wants to fine tune bike handling skills. You should have at least 1-2 years mountain biking.  Of you find yourself struggling to make it through most technical sections of your ride, then check out our 1-day beginner course to help level up your riding abilities and get prepared for this clinic. :)

About this Clinic:

Trail riding has a lot of twists and turns, and this course will set you up with the techniques needed to corner with confidence. Whether you’re pedaling up a switchback, bombing through a berm, or coasting down an off-camber section through the forest, there are many tools that will make your riding smoother and more fun. We’ll start with a strong foundation of body position as we work with the mechanics of the bike to maintain speed and stability. Corners come in all shapes and sizes so we’ll break down how terrain affects our flow and discuss line choices as they apply to both climbing and descending.

Space is limited, so let's get rolling!
