What to expect

Each session will start with focused skill work on the fundamentals for riding and racing: body position, braking, and cornering. After that, the group will head out on a trail ride to use those skills to work, along with sessioning features, talking through line choices, building fitness, and having some fun.

There’s no race pressure. The aim is to ride better and ride more, at a time of year when a lot of riders stop.

Meet your coaches

Geza Rodgers from Port Moody has raced almost every kind of bike there is: BMX, cyclocross, road, track, XC, enduro and downhill. She’s a Canadian U21 Enduro Champion and Junior Downhill National Champion, and she represented Canada at the 2024 Downhill World Championships. Her all-round background makes her an amazing coach for riders building their foundations.

Elly Hoskin is the 2025 Enduro World Champion. The Squamish rider has won the Canadian Open Enduro at Crankworx Whistler three years in a row, and she was a regular on Enduro World Cup podiums as a U21 rider before stepping up to Elite. She’s a great example of what consistency and hard work can do.

Dress for the weather

It’s November on the North Shore, so expect rain. Dress warm and in layers, and bring a waterproof jacket, full-finger gloves and a dry change of clothes for after. A wet ride outside is always better than no ride at all.

What to bring

• A mountain bike in good working order, suited to black trails (please make sure your brake pads aren’t down to the metal)
• Helmet and knee pads – we’re not getting too sendy
• Water, snacks, and a spare tube or repair kit

Eligibility

The series is designed for riders aged 14-16 who are comfortable on black trails, who are interested in, or already, racing. Riders slightly younger or older may be accepted, depending on space. With only 8 spots, we expect this to fill quickly.
