I'm interested in attending this event. Is it an all day thing where you arrive at 10 and go to 4? I didn't see any schedule for the day indicating what time specific clinics etc. were happening. Thanks.

10-4

We do a meet and greet for a bit,..then get into basic skills,...techniques,..etc. It's mostly on the field and then followed by a trial ride. We usually wrap up around 3ish for burgers by Brendian!

EX 5 WSD or the EX 8 WSD

I want to bring my wife so she can try out the ex5 wsd or the ex8 wsd. She is as new as it gets to mountain biking. I wanted to know if it was ok that I came down and went out with her so she can demo the bike. The only time she has ridden was at the Jamis demo in Ringwood a few weeks ago.

i say go for it, as long as your not trying to pick up any of the attending ladies you should be in the clear.

Thanks, Cyclecraft! This sounds like a great opportunity for women to try bikes and learn some skills. Great idea for guys to bring out the ladies. :) It's all fun!

Unfortunately, I can't make it to this event due to a prior commitment. :(

Jess - please keep posting these clinics. I really need to go to one. I'm getting tired of hike-a-biking and am told that proper technique would help with the climbing.

Thanks.

I might be there with ya Jess, I was going to ride Tymor Saturday and do a epic road ride Sunday. I could flop, scratch the road and see ya on Sunday!
Even a bad plan is better than no plan at all!

RC ... :eek:
 
Wish I had seen this thread earlier. The WSD Demo truck was at my shop today which could have been convenient for those in the Trenton/Mercer area.

A lot of new faces out there! Great to get together and try new bikes and new skills. Keep practicing the basics and by summers end you'll be flying! As we discussed, lots of group rides can be found here on Mtbnj.com,...see you on the trails!
