Bunch riding with experienced Ride Guide instructors Ever wondered how those riders stay together so seemingly effortlessly? This course will teach you all about road etiquette (eg hand signals, avoiding "hazards", maintaining the right distance etc.), rotation systems for riding in a bunch, and other useful tips to enjoy riding in a group. **Revolve subsidises her members for both the road & MTB courses** | MTB skills coursesJoyRide offers mountain bike skills courses for women. Each course
focusses on a different element of trail riding. We believe the best way
to learn to mountain bike is to mountain bike. So our skills courses are
a bit different…we go for a ride, stop at various points along the way
for a chat. We demonstrate a specific skill, then give you a chance to
try it out in the next section. Each course is limited to six ladies (1:6 instructor ratio). Costs: $125 or $105 for Revolve Members. For more details on upcoming courses check the Weekly Revolver or enjoytheride.co.nz |
