The popular DTE Energy Foundation Trail in Waterloo Recreation Area gives riders access to more technical and
challenging terrain with its series of loops. Gain confidence in your
abilities with our Mountain Bike Skills and On-Trail Service Clinic in Chelsea May 5 and 6.
Featuring instruction from Aberdeen Bike Shop
owner Mike Casey and the Aberdeen Mountain Bike Team, the class will cover basic to intermediate
trail-riding skills and basic on-trail repairs. Learn the fundamentals of
bike handling, braking, shifting, pedaling techniques, cornering, climbing,
descending and positioning. A more advanced set of skills for intermediate
riders will include front and rear wheel lifts, jumping, dropping and pumping.
The on-trail service portion of the class will cover common repairs that can be
made on the trail to ensure you’re able to ride out of the woods.
Cost is $85. Lunch and a service kit seat bag, multi-tool and inner tube from Aberdeen Bikes are included. Registration
deadline is April 23.
