Intermediate Mountain Bike Camp is for young riders with at least one year of singletrack biking experience who are comfortable riding intermediate trails and are looking to improve their riding skills through instruction, challenges, and adventure. This is a great additional camp for kids that have experience in our Youth Mountain Bike program who have a thirst for more riding and coaching. Days will combine longer rides on Howelsen and around Steamboat with skill work on grass and Bear River Bike Park, bike maintenance, and introduction to foundational physical literacy and strength for cycling. Each day will start with up to three hours of riding, followed by a break for lunch, and then end with a different afternoon activity each day. The goal of the camp is to progress skills and confidence for all around trail riding all while having fun and making new friends.
