+1 on clinics. I am blessed to live where the local mountain bike club puts on one weekly for women. It is encouraging and I am learning a lot and having a blast! DH has really been impressed with my improvement in skill and confidence. Plus our sponsors give schwag and I have won a couple of goodies.
