Save the Date...

[heckler's better 1/2]

More details to follow soon, but I've heard that the date is set for another BMX Clinic in Abbotsford for us ladies.. Feb 10th. I went two years ago and it was a blast. It's a real treat to ride in February and be dry/warm. Makes you wish for summer...

google calendar says: already booked for something else :(

[Sparkplug]

I've been wanting to buy a BMX bike for a while now... maybe the clinic would be some motivation to make it happen. The clinic could be the intro I need as a new BMXr.

computer says no!

I shouldn't complain really: I'll be spending the day watching the World Cup at Cypress with the kids that I coach...

:( Sunday is dance day...and on top of that, unless I can borrow MPD's bike, I don't have one.

[heckler]

Quick! Someone mention that you don't need a BMX to take the course

Be sick... I fully promote not attending Dance when you can ride your bike. Far more rewarding... and Heckler's Better 1/2 is going to be there. Didn't she invent the party?

Can you sign-up last minute? Say the Friday before.

i think the clinic is around 4-5 hours (with a lunch break) so it ends up being pretty much all day. it also takes about an hour to drive there and another back. i think last year it started around 10.

[heckler's better 1/2]

It's a full day affair for sure... you'll be bagged by then end but super happy!

Leave North Van around 8-8:30 plan to be home no earlier than 4pm.

[Fluid]

Last year's clinic started at 9:30am and ran until 3:30pm but I think we even ran over 3:30pm too.

And yeah, count on at least an hour to get out there and another hour to get back from North Van.

Link to last years clinic review? Or what would be covered?

And here's a review of the 2007 clinic by Aimee Dunn.

BMX Bikes, Hardtails, and short-travel, suspension bikes (5" and under) are the best bikes for this clinic.

I'll be riding my sucky hardtail with the front forks that don't work.

Great review .... really informative. Thanks!

that's not a bad thing, considering bmx bikes are fully rigid. basically what you're learning what to do is to make your body be the suspension, rather than the bike. it's all about being relaxed, and loose, elbows and knees bent. it may be a "bmx" clinic but you're going to learn things that will totally help out on a trail.

I absolutely agree!

Last year was lots of fun! I can't wait, I want to ride my bike already!

[nouseforaname]

Has anyone got room for my better half to head from NV to this?

[heckler's better 1/2]

I can take her!

[nouseforaname]

Sweet - thanks!

Ken is an awsome coach he always gets you to challenge yourself to progress, I have been to several of his clinics. worth every penny.

[DARTHYOGA]

Im so pumped ! Just a few more days !
Is anybody coming back on the 99? I can get there but if I can get dropped off along the way home that would be great.

[lets ride]

What a day at the track today! It was great to see familiar and new faces. The energy was spectacular and really showed. Thanks to everyone for coming out and I hope to see everyone again next year. Denise

[DARTHYOGA]
