Fat Tire Mountain Biking Camp is an action-packed week for ages 10-16 that takes campers all over the James River Park System's technical, swoopy, and fun trails. This program empowers campers to master these trails by building all necessary skills and experiences in a supportive, can-do atmosphere with incredible staff. The week includes trips to the Richmond BMX Track, Pocahontas State Park, Leakes Mill, and Freedom Park in Williamsburg. Campers must bring their own mountain bike and helmet, which will be securely locked in the enclosed trailer all week. Each day ends with a refreshing swim in the James River to rinse off the dirt! The program focuses on body and bike control, emphasizing that an ounce of style is worth a pound of performance. Staff ride at the front, back, and throughout the pack to set appropriate pace, keep the group together, and provide real-time feedback. With a 4:1 ratio, this camp prepares riders for Advanced Fat Tire Camp and future Passages mountain bike staff positions.
