On behalf of the Forrest MTB & Cycling Club, we are excited to deliver free mountain bike “come and try” sessions wholly subsidised by the Change our Game initiative of the Victorian State Government.

Winter Womens Come and Try Session for 40+yo

15 June 1-3pm

Keen to try mountain biking but don’t know where to start? Don’t have a bike?

Come and give it a go in a safe and friendly environment with the guidance of a professional instructor from Explore MTB.

This two hour session will take you through the basics you need to get out on a beginner trail:

• Safety
• Bike Operation (gears and brakes)
• Body Position

Worried about fitness?

Don’t stress. Half of the session will be conducted in and around the skills park so we won’t be riding big distances. Once you’ve settled in on your bike and we’ve got the basics happening, we will spend the second half riding some green trails near the trailhead as a group. The total distance we will ride during the two hours will be approximately 5km and we will always be in a group so no one is left behind.

If you enjoy having a go at mountain biking, then keep an eye out for more in-depth free skills sessions coming up!
