Boulder Fall Drop-In Day
This is a drop-in day for after-school rides. The tuition is for 1 ride on 1 day. Program fees are non-refundable once the session begins. A partial refund (program fee minus $75) will be issued for withdrawals or cancellations made up to 24 hours before the session begins. There are no refunds or make-up rides for missed rides or ride cancellations. Program fees are not prorated.
Athletes meet at the drop off/pick up location and ride in the vans to various trail locations for each ride. Ride location is determined the day of the ride during a pre-ride coaches' meeting. Coaches and staff are unable to confirm ride locations before scheduled drop off time.
Athletes are split into smaller riding groups with a coach and athletes of similar skill and age for each ride. Ride location and ride distance varies each day depending on weather, trail conditions, and coaches' ride plan. Distance and speed of each ride group varies on ride group's skill level, energy levels, and group goals for the day. Unforeseen delays such as trailside mechanical issues, crashes, or other delays may shorten distance or ride time for a group.
Team athletes must already be comfortable balancing, braking, pedaling consistently, and standing up on their pedals on singletrack trails with easy to moderate climbs and descents with rocks and other features. (typically, blue/green, blue, blue/black, and black trail difficulty ratings). Athletes must be comfortable riding in a group with coaches and other athletes of similar age and skill; and must be willing to listen and follow coaches' instructions and all rules during the ride. Athletes must come prepared to behave respectfully to all coaches, athletes, and other trail users encountered before, during and after ride.
