For those of you that want the opportunity to ride with Alison Dunlap, World Champion and 2 time Olympian, and already have a strong mountain bike background, come join us in Moab for a five day ride camp.
In our Moab Ride Camp we’ll spend a small amount of time reviewing the advanced riding techniques needed for Moab, and a large amount of time riding the epic trails in the area. We’re not going to spend a lot of time teaching you how to ride your mountain bike. This camp is for riders that are comfortable on technically challenging advanced singletrack, but haven’t ridden in Moab; or maybe you’ve already been to our Moab Skills Camp and want to come back for the more advanced rides.
We’ll take you out for long epic rides on some of Moab’s newest singletrack as well as the big classic rides in the area. While our emphasis in the Ride Camp is all about riding trails without a lot of stopping, getting into a rhythm and letting things flow, we can always stop to session things that present fun challenges and test the skills.
Our Moab camp participants should be comfortable with the following:
- Clipping in and out of your clipless pedals under all conditions, quickly and safely.
- Riding moderate to difficult obstacles; ledges, rough rocky climbs and descents, exposed singletrack and slickrock.
- Riding 3-5hrs on moderate to strenuous trails, including long sustained climbs and short steep power hills.
“Thank you SO very much for the camp experience, and for accommodating my individual needs. The overall experience ranked among my top lifetime vacations, and the two of you definitely made the Moab adventure memorable and inspirational! “
