Boot Camp was amazing! There were about 12 of us, three women, plus a reporter and photographer from the PI (local paper). I think only two of us hadn't been mtn. biking before so the pace felt more advanced that I had anticipated.

Skills covered were track stand, riding positions, cone of movement, weight distribution, gear use, climbing, bracing, descending, lines, cornering, obstacles and trail etiquette.

Hats off to all of you who practice this sport! I can appreciate how much practice and effort goes into building one's skills. Where did I leave the ibuprofen?....

Now rocknrollgirl, how did your day out with the demo go? Are you in for a new bike?
