Girls Got Skills – 1

Posted on May 26, 2012June 1, 2012 by Smoke

Day one of the 2012 edition of the GGS Clinic, and we couldn’t have asked for better conditions.

After a short orientation and warmup, we got right into getting the ladies centered and primed for some skills tune-ups.

That’s Barb helping out there. What a place to do skills sessions. Lots of room, right on the lake!

After a full morning of intensive work, it was time for a trail session. Here’s the van full of some ladies ready to rip.

I got sort of busy with the afternoon of the first day, and forgot to take more pics, but here’s a taster of a log riding session.

The first day of the 2 day format is always a bit humbling anyway, so I’ll just leave you with this pic of the post-ride cool down at lakeside. Tomorrow we’ll build the girls back up and get them to their next level!

Meet the coaches…

Yup, I think the girls are in for a good session this time around.

Ridin’ With Frenchies

With the KVR trip down, training camp is now complete and it looks like it might be summer already.

Julie, who helped me guide this week, had a full house of Quebecois et Quebecoise in the form of her sister and some friends out for a quick riding visit from Squamish. They managed to hit a perfect day.
