Frequently asked questions about booking our coaching sessions.

  1. Everyone in your party must sign a waiver.  No waiver?  No ride!
  2. Please note that due to the limited availability of sessions, permit and insurance fees, travel arrangements for coaches and expenses to get to a session we require 48hrs notice for all cancellations. Cancellations within 48hrs will be subject to a 50% session fee. We realize that life happens and if you have an issue we will be happy to help you to the best of our ability.
  3. If you need to make a change to your upcoming booking, please contact us right away.
  4. In the event of rain or other inclement weather we will reschedule your lesson (season dependent) and/or provide a credit (if prepaid) applicable toward any future lesson.

You may pay online with any major credit or debit card at the time of booking.  If you prefer, you can book over the phone and pay me on the day.  I can accept cash, PayPal, Venmo & Apple Pay for in person payments.
ALL RIDERS MUST SIGN A WAIVER. Mountain biking carries a level of risk to the rider. YOU ASSUME THE RISK while riding. Remember, even when riding with a coach, don't ride anything you are unsure of without inspecting it first.
  • HELMETS ARE REQUIRED AT ALL TIMES. A half shell is the minimum requirement but a full-face helmet is strongly recommended. A full face helmet is required when riding Black Diamond trails.
  • Full finger gloves & knee pads are required.
  • Elbow pads, chest/back/neck protection is optional
  • Eye protection is strongly recommended.
We can coach children from age 6 and up.  The cutoff age for our "Kids Coaching" products is Kids aged under 12.
  1. Our Coaching Sessions end on time & we leave time at the end to discuss your child's progress. We ask that you arrive at the designated meeting point on time so we can have the post session discussion & not impact the client following your session.
  2. For all children not picked up by the end of the session, a charge of $30 for every fifteen (15) minutes after the session end time will be incurred.
  3. Recurring late pickup may result in cancellation of future sessions.
  4. After your third late occurrence we reserve the right to cancel all future sessions & terminate our relationship.
  5. If you are running late, please notify the coach and attempt to make alternate pick-up arrangements.
  6. When a child is not picked up in emergency situations including, but not limited to: inclement weather or natural disasters, we will follow the above “late pickup” policy starting 45 minutes from when the parent has been informed of the need for children to be picked-up.
Coaching sessions are rain or shine. If the weather is particularly bad we will work with you to reschedule on a date that is mutually agreeable.
  1. Every camp participant must have a signed Waiver.  No waiver?  No ride!
  2. Please note that due to the limited availability of camps, permit and insurance fees, travel arrangements for coaches and expenses to get to a camp we require ONE WEEK notice for all cancellations.

An Important Note About Safety

Mountain Biking is a fun & exhilarating sport, but there are risks and dangers associated with participation in Mountain Biking events and activities which could result in bodily injury, disability, paralysis and death.

If you want to ride with me HELMETS ARE REQUIRED AT ALL TIMES. A half shell is the minimum requirement but I strongly recommend a full-face helmet. Full finger gloves & knee pads are also required.

Participants are responsible for the maintenance and care of their bike prior to & during our ride. I can help you set up your bike for optimal riding and help with suspension settings. Please note that this will count towards your session time.

All members of your riding group must sign the Waiver prior to riding.
