Mountain Bike Skills Developlment at Bryce Resort

Dr. Jarry and I headed out to Bryce Resort yesterday to work on our ability to teach descending, cornering and pressure control to the boys on the mountain bike team. We worked with a great guide who has worked at the park for five years and has his level 2 instructor certification from TerraMethod out of Whistler.  We did around 14 runs at the resort for a total of around 8,000 feet of descending.
