Today marked the third year of camps for us at Sticks and Stones! As the mountain bikers gathered at the parking lot, we felt the excitement growing and it made us thankful of how great the campers are that sign up for our sessions! It's an awesome setting to have the opportunity to share and pass down our passion for the sport of mountain biking.
We started off with a quick warm up loop around the single track trails from Patton Woods and it was evident that the skill level of this camp is strong. Following our warm up, we had a balancing challenge to make the riders focus on keeping their weight evenly distributed. The riders lined up in heats of four to see who could travel 15 yards the slowest without dabbing their foot to the ground. They really got into this challenge and I'm positive this won't be the last time we see this challenge at our camps this summer.
After this, we went back out onto the trails and visited a few of our hill challenges as we arrived to one of the requested loops that we had the riders complete during one of last years camps. All in all it was a successful day and we look forward to meeting again tomorrow at Circleville Park parking lot!
Below are a few photos from our first hill challenge from today! I tried to get a decent photo of everyone but a few of them weren't worthy of posting. We will make up for that tomorrow!
Enjoy!
