This 2.5 day Mountain Bike basecamp is designed to help you improve your bike skills with a deep immersion of content, demo's and application over an extended weekend and overnight experience. Learn and apply the solid foundation skills on the technical trails of Georgetown. Ex: cornering, braking, slow speed, balance, body position, wheel lifts, variance of the skills, switch backs, basic drops, vision, and more. This basecamp is for the more intermediate rider given the terrain. Over the weekend we help you build, refine and expand your present riding skill set. The clinic is progression based skill building. Meaning, that there are progressions for each skill. So that each level of rider can progress and challenge within their own ability.
Meet our partners for the weekend-California Expeditions & PIKA Adventures.
WHAT IS AN ADVENTURE BASECAMP EXPERIENCE?
Basecamp Experiences were born out of years of taking people into the outdoors and watching the positive effects it has on individuals. Set in the outdoors, away from day to day life, you can get the most from your Mountain Biking experience. It’s an opportunity to spend time with new and old friends, share stories, ideas, and leave connected to the experience. But most importantly they produce a sense of community. A place to connect, share, have fun and come way inspired, energized and with a renewed sense of purpose.
FRIDAY - ARRIVAL DAY
You should arrive at the campgrounds by 4pm where you will be greeted by the guides/instructors and introduced to the basecamp experience. The guides will walk you through where to set up your campsite, campsite management, safety and group responsibilities. Get ready for a great weekend of riding, eating well, bonding and full skills immersion!
Once settled, you will return to the group area to relax and share in a discussion of your upcoming mountain bike adventure with your coach. An array of appetizers will be served before dinner.
