Last Friday, if your TV or computer was tuned to Lake Tahoe TV and the Today show hosted by Todd Offenbacher, you saw Dylan giving the Lake Tahoe trail report for the North Shore. But in case you missed it, here’s the scoop:
North Shore Trail Update
The riding at lower elevations has been great, such as Sawtooth and the 06 trails. Pretty much anything that’s 6,800’ and south facing is rideable. North facing is still a little sporty.
Is A Mountain Bike Clinic For You?
Another aspect Dylan delved into is, “Who’s typically registering for a mountain bike clinic?” Of course, there’s the rider who is new to the sport and wants to make sure they start with a good foundation. Others have a few years notched under their belt and want to get a better understanding of the mechanics so they can lower the risk and up the fun factor. And last but not least, it’s the experts. These are the ones that want to jump higher, corner better, and manual longer. As you can see, A Singletrack Mind can help ANY skill level have more fun AND ride better.
#1 Tip For Mountain Biking
Don’t take yourself too seriously. The goal when you get outside and on a bike is to have fun. The next tip we all can work from beginners to experts is basic body positioning. Chin up. Eyes up. Here’s a video where Dylan gives you the details:
