She Devils - Girls MTB Program for Warrandyte MTB Club
6x 1.5hr sessions
5:00-6:30pm Thursdays - 10th October to 14th November
Thanks to a Change Our Game grant from the Victorian State Government, Warrandyte Mountain Bike Club is thrilled to announce that we will be running a junior girls mountain bike skills clinic in term 4. She Devils is a spin-off of Warrandyte Mountain Bike Club's hugely successful Dirt Devils kids program.
She Devils participants will receive tuition from experienced mountain biking instructor Cazz Clarke over six consecutive Thursdays from 10 October to 14 November. The program will be suitable for girls who can comfortably ride a bike but may not have ridden off-road before, or have limited experience on trails. The focus will be on building skills and confidence in a safe and supportive environment.
Get in quick because numbers are strictly limited!
