Join The Elevated Alpine and The Boulder Mountainbike Alliance's Kelsey Wisinski for a 2-part women's only mountain bike skills clinic. CLINIC DESCRIPTION This women's only 2 evening clinic at Valmont Bike Park will focus on the fundamentals such as cornering at high and low speed, wheel lifts while climbing, and body positioning for technical descents.
