Irvine~ After School Program

After School Mountain Biking Program
Our After School Program teaches essential mountain biking skills in a supportive, fun environment. Riders will develop key skills, including trail safety and stewardship, trail scanning, bike and body positioning, braking, gear shifting, turning, cornering, wheel lifts, climbing and descending, ratcheting, and more!

Who Can Join?
This program is designed for kids aged 8+ who are comfortable riding a geared mountain bike on dirt trails. With a small group size of just 8 participants per session, each rider receives personalized coaching. Parents, feel free to drop off or stay and watch—it’s up to you!

Each participant also receives a swag bag with riding gear and exclusive discounts!

What to Bring:
To ensure a great experience, please have your rider arrive with:

A recently serviced, geared mountain bike with 24″ or larger wheels.
- Double-check the chain, brakes, and tire pressure for optimal performance.
A snug, properly fitted helmet for safety.
Closed-toe sneakers and athletic, weather-appropriate clothing.
A water bottle and a light snack for hydration and energy.

Well-fed and hydrated riders have the most fun, so please make sure your rider is ready!

Program Highlights:
In the second half of the program, riders will take on real trails, departing from the park into nearby trail networks. Starting with the basics, the program progresses to advanced skills, building confidence and skill so every bike-loving kid can ride like a pro! Expect high levels of flow and fun as they improve their technique and tear up the trails.

We can’t wait to see your rider on the trails!
