Please bring the following to class: A functioning mountain bike, A good helmet. It is also recommended that attendees ride platform pedals (flat, non-clip) with flat-soled shoes. Flat-soled non-clip style mountain bike shoes, or skate shoes will work for this purpose. These style pedals and shoes allow the rider to comfortably and easily attempt new moves and technique without the concern of trying to clip out if a quick dismount is required. Extra pedals will be available at the class if you do not have flat pedals.
