MTB Summer Camp for Middle, High Schoolers in Georgia

[Jeff Barber]

The GA NICA league is sponsoring a mountain bike summer camp this year and it sounds like a great opportunity! Check this out.

The Georgia Rider Development Summer Camp at Dauset Trails will be an experience of a lifetime! From expert instructors to the best camp facilities in the region, Georgia Rider Development Camps are the perfect place for kids to have big time summer fun, develop a love for mountain biking, and challenge themselves in a healthy, supportive environment. Instruction focuses on proper nutrition, ride preparation, fitness, trail etiquette and safety, and fundamental mountain bike skills (body position and balance, operation of controls, and terrain awareness). Camps also incorporate instruction on maneuvers such as cornering, navigating obstacles, and other technical skills riders often desire. Georgia Rider Development Camps offer a customized experience that will peak every young rider’s interest. Each evening, we bring all the kids back together for camp-wide games, adventures, team building and traditional summer camp fun.

This amazing camp experience offers participants:
• Mountain Biking
• Skills Instruction
• Presentations
• Hiking
• Games
• Traditional Camp Experiences
