1:30pm-2:30pm Take it to the trails! We will practice these riding techniques on the trails. I will explain what to expect and call out techniques such as when to stand, increase speed, when to shift, etc. We will stop and analyze trail features, you'll get explanations and demonstrations on how to conquer the feature and then you'll get to session it yourself. 
What to Bring
Bring a good safe mountain bike that's been serviced/tuned up so you won't have any bike malfunctions (many shops can check and service your bike as well as rent you a bike but please reserve ahead of time).
 Helmet is mandatory. Bring plenty of water (a thermos is good but a Camelbak with 2-3 liters of water is even better). Bring a lunch for your lunch break! 
 
*Hard tail, full suspension and Ebike friendly event.
 
I highly recommend arriving a half hour early to find parking, unload bike, check your air pressure, gear up and meet the group who is probably talking all things mountain bike. :)
