ORPT 1241 - Mountain Biking

1 Credit(s)

This is a beginning to intermediate level mountain biking class focused on developing awareness. Classes will consist of mountain bike rides, skill development drills, basic maintenance, and more. No mountain biking experience is needed. Students must have a properly functioning mountain bike and biking-specific helmet available for the entire duration of the course. Students should already know how to ride a bike before taking this course and should recognize that biking is an aerobic activity that can be physically taxing. Our goal for each class session is not to cover a lot of miles, but to cover skills and drills to become more effective bikers. In that process we may ride from 3-10 miles of trail.
