2024 after-school MTB clinics

POP is offering spring and fall sessions of five week, twice-weekly after-school mountain bike clinics for children between ages 7 and 12. Our experienced instructors will lead their groups on an hour an hour of instructional rides on the trails of Pine Street Woods and VTT.

All clinics take place in Pine Street Woods between 3:30 and 4:45 pm.

Who can participate?

Kids between ages 7 and 12 who have well functioning mountain bikes and are able to get to and from Pine Street Woods between 3:30 and 4:45 pm.

Children of various experience levels are welcome, but kids must be able to ride a bike and must have a functioning mountain bike with at least 20 inch wheels.

We highly recommend you take your child's bike to a local bike shop in the weeks before the clinics begin and have it fully tuned. Children whose bikes are not in working order will not be able to participate and will be sent home.
