Meet: On the grassy knoll at the opposite end of the Quinn’s Junction parking lot (near fitness equipment).
Clinic: On-time clinic of 4:30 PM. Park City Bike & Demo will be providing a hands on instruction on basic bicycle upkeep and repair. Get the knowledge and skills to maintain your bike and handle minor issues. We will cover topics like flat tire repair, brake and gear adjustments, chain maintenance, routine maintenance and safety checks. You will also learn what to carry and how to handle common issues encountered on the trail/road. Learning how to properly care for your bike can ensure that it runs smoothly and safely. This is oriented to mountain bikes but road cyclists can also benefit from the clinic. Bring your own bike for practical experience and we might have time for a ride afterwards.
Optional Short Ride: This is for beginner/moderate/advanced levels. We’ll have several routes to choose from. Approximately 5-7 miles and 500 feet of elevation gain. Expect to be out on the trails approximately 1 to 1.5 hours. This is not meant for new riders needing instruction.
