After School Skills
Head for the Hills runs after school mountain bike skills programs for kids wanting to try mountain biking as well as those looking to develop their skills. Lessons are designed for kids aged 10 to 14 and offered South of the city, on the Craigburn Farm Shared-Use Trails, and North at Cobbler Creek Recreation Park. There are no pre-requisites for participants and the program is perfect for beginners, so long as they can ride confidently on two wheels.
Learning new skills on the trails!

Program Information

Bike handling and balance
Control and trail reading
Technique (discipline independent)
Students will also learn about the non-practical aspects of mountain biking, including:
Trail etiquette for shared-use networks
Risk assessment and management skills
Knowledge of participation opportunities
Balance skills learned at slow speed enhance control & accuracy on faster trails
Letting the bike move over obstacles keeps wheels on the ground and gives you control
