Adaptive Mountain Biking Camp – Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced camp options available

By February 11, 2023September 15th, 2023No Comments

Join us for 3 days of adaptive mountain biking across some of Greater Sydney’s top MTB trails, including Manly Dam, Awaba MTB Park and Wylde MTB Park in Western Sydney

This year we’ve got three separate courses to cater to varying abilities and experience. These courses have been designed for people who own their own adaptive mountain bikes that would like to be supported to ride mountain bike trails or you can use one of our fleet of adaptive cycles. If you own a Sport-on Jeetrike, XCR or Explorer; Bowhead Reach or RX, then this is the week for you! We’ll also have Damien from Pedal Happy on hand to ensure your whip is running smoothly, and able to sort out any running repairs as needed. (Note: any repairs will be at the expense of the rider)

Don’t own your own bike? Don’t worry we’ve got a range of our own adaptive mountain bikes including Sport-on Jeetrike’s and XCR, Bowhead RX and have access to additional cycles from suppliers.
