Get ready for your experience
• We suggest that you bring a bottle of water or a hydration bag, it will be hot and the mountain bike initiation requires a sustained physical effort in uphill and downhill.
• We suggest you bring a snack, the lesson lasts 2.5 hours.
• We recommend that you wear long shorts (mid-thigh) or legging-type pants.
• We recommend that you dress in several layers of clothing (ideally avoid cotton); this will allow you to dress/undress according to the progress of the lesson.
• We recommend that you bring a pair of gloves, long socks covering the shins and goggles (sunglasses or glasses will do), this will protect your eyes from the small branches that you might come across in the mountain.
