  DORC will be running a half day clinic for MTB riders who are interested in riding smoother, faster and with more control.

 The course will be run by a qualified MTBA, PMBIA instructor and will cover:

You will learn how to:

This clinic is for riders who already have the basics under control and would like to take their riding to the next level. Riders wishing to attend this course must be over 18 years of age and be members of DORC and MTBA.

The session will cost $50 per person with all proceeds going to DORC
