Evergreen Basic Mountain Bike Skills Part I Sunday, August 19th - 10:00 AM
Lead instructor: Evergreen Location: Duthie Hill
If you are new to the fun of mountain biking, this class is for you! You'll learn how to stay balanced and in control while you zip through the trails comfortably getting over roots and small logs. It's designed for adults of any age and kids 15 and above who have no previous training. We welcome families, individuals and groups.

Some of the skills we will be covering are bike/body position, shifting, braking, climbing, descending, and lifting our front wheel.

Plan on 3hrs where we will wrap things up by 1pm.

This class will be taught by Jerry and Tracy.

Class Rates: $45 for Evergreen members (non-members must purchase an Evergreen membership for an additional $30) An annual family membership is $50. The class sign-up pages will automatically determine the right membership for you.

**PARKING FOR CLASS** We will park at Cascade Ridge Elementary School at 2020 Trossachs Blvd, Sammamish, WA 98075 for class. The parking lot at Duthie is very small so we will all meet at CASCADE, sign in, do a quick bike check, and ride over as a group to Duthie Hill. Please arrive at CASCADE by 9:30am. We will leave the parking lot at 9:45 so we can start class promptly at 10am.

Please do not park along Duthie Hill Rd, Issaquah-Fall City Rd, or in the surrounding neighborhoods.

You will be contacted a few days prior to class with more details but if you have questions, comments, concerns - please don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to seeing you out there!
