Saturday, September 23, 10-1 pm, Frederick Watershed

Hillary Elgert, Team City Bikes and professional downhill competitor, will cover basic "freeride/downhill" skills, also good skills for a cross-country rider to master. Skills like cornering, basic drops, and steeper trails. This could be a great opportunity for a cross-country racer and the beginner freerider/downhiller to get some free coaching on technique.

Prerequisites:
This clinic is not for beginners! In order to attend, you need to be able to ride the yellow loop at Gambrill or a technically similar trail. If you have any question about the technical aspects of this clinic, please email Hillary at hillaryelgert@hotmail.com.

You will need a full-suspension bike (downhiller-specific bikes are not required) and body armor if you have it. Hillary has a couple of bikes and some pads to lend out if needed.

To Register:
We are limiting the clinic to 10 women, so we are asking that everyone RSVP. Please email Liz@LizNotter.com with the following information: Name, phone number, and if you need to borrow a bike or body armor.
