Im not saying that im an expert at this by any means, however i do pride myself in my technical abilities and climing (mt. bike style).   I would like to hold a clinic type ride for those folks wanting to race Mt. Bike, but feel that tech. abilities would hinder performance.  I was in Colorado two summers ago and was schooled by the best...Ned O.  Things i can help with would be cornering, climbing, gearing, obstacles, etc.    give me some feedback as to who would be interested in this.

It wasnt even a planned thing.  I was in Durango and was with some buddies and ran into him and two others. Started chatting and he invited us to ride with them....WAY COOL! Made us look like we were on tricycles!  Gave us some great tips.   Next Saturday morning would be great. I would like to have all the folks who are interested in Mtb. racing there....killl all the birds with one stone.

For you "not so early birds", the clinic will be held at 9am at Memorial Park. We will all meet at the picnic tables by the....picnic loop. I will have you all doing drops within the hour!!   Grin

Lets stick to situations that you will actually come across on the trail.

Nathan from UH is wanting to get some pics of us riding in town on mountain bikes.  I told him that we could fo this before or after our clinic at memorial.  I think we can get some good shots over on Allen Parkway near Montrose where there is a park that has downtown as a back drop.  When would ya'll like to do this?  I can bring a couple extra coog jerseys if you dont have one.
