The Midwest Women's Mountain Bike Clinic was founded in 2005 and is quickly becoming one of the most popular women's mountain bike events in the Midwest. We strive to offer safe, responsible and effective guidance to riders of all skill levels, while also teaching the importance of trail etiquette, safety and advocacy. We feel strongly that our volunteers, coaches and staff will lead the way as advocates for safe, organized and responsible mountain biking.

Check out the new event website at http://www.midwestwomensclinic.com for more info on the 2010 event!



We are working harder than ever at improving the Midwest Women's Mountain Bike Clinic. This year, many of our instructors will be certified through the International Mountainbike Instructor Certification (IMIC) program. We are making sure all our participants receive the same quality insturction no matter what their skill level may be!

For more info on the IMIC certification, go to www.midwestwomensclinic.com/imic.html

If you've ever been curious about riding trials or have always wanted to try a trials bike, be sure to stop by and see Katie Polk during the bike and product demo on Saturday, June 12. Katie will be on hand during the Midwest Women's Mountain Bike Clinic to share her knowledge (and her bike) with anyone willing to give it a try! Check out this intro to trials video done by Katie.



Bike demos will also be available from Trek Fit for Women demo truck and from Kona (more to be announced soon!). Demos are free to try on Saturday and any participant who would like to reserve a bike can use it during the clinic on Sunday... for FREE!

Hey, we met a bunch of cool CAMBR people at Levis Trow Mounds over the weekend and they are going to Brown County for the skills clinic and they have rented a campground. They extended the offer for anyone from our club to stay with them, free of charge. If you are interested, PM Burak AKA "undercover" at CAMBR http://cambr.org/SMF/index.php?action=home for more details. I'm not going but am passing along the word.
