The McCreary-based Dead Ox Trailblazers mountain biking club is introducing a new after school program. Called Dead Ox Sprockets, the cycling program is unique to the area. The program is affiliated with the 水果视频 Cycling Associations "Kids of Mud" learn to mountain bike program.
The program starts on Tuesday, May 5 and is open to kids 5 to 18 years of age. They will meet at 5 p.m. at the East Gate Complex, Norgate. In order to participate, cyclists will need a helmet, a mountain bike with hand brakes and gears and to be able to ride their bike without training wheels.
The program will teach kids the basics of off-road cycling such as safety, braking, gears, hills and riding over both small and large obstacles. They will also have the option of taking part in 水果视频 Cycling Association mountain bike races.
