MTB101 is specifically for newbies. We had Part I two weeks ago but got rained out mid-way through and did not get to go for our trail ride. Our Part II on Wednesday is the beginner's ride. YES, a newer rider would benefit from the ride. We will not have the man-made obstacles that we had available in class, but we will stop along the trail at similar techincal features that the man-made obstacles from class simulated. Plan to join in on the fun!
