This is an article from Trek about their amazing Dirt Series, coming soon to Portland! The Dirt Series is a women’s instructional mountain bike camp that offers world-class instruction.

The Trek Dirt Series will be bringing its instructional mountain bike camp to the Northwest the weekend of July 30-31 at the widely acclaimed Sandy Ridge, just outside of Portland, OR. The women’s-only camp is a full weekend designed to help riders of all levels, from beginner to expert, hone their mountain biking skills in a safe, educational and fun environment and will include morning skill development sessions and afternoon rides to incorporate new techniques and explore local trails. The 2-day camp features some of the continent’s most experienced female coaches and will include access to the trail, bikes, food, and more.

“These camps are designed for women and coached by women. It’s as educational an atmosphere as it is inspirational,” said Dirt Series Manager Candace Shadley. “Our camps are completely customizable to whatever our participants want to get out of them and our campers walk away with an unforgettable experience and a whole new set of skills to hit the trails with.”

In its twelfth year of existence, the Trek Dirt Series delivers world-class instruction with the goal of developing skills through a supportive, step-by-step process that helps riders move beyond their fears to discover the fun of mountain biking. A member of the Trek Women Demo Tour will be on hand offering a full array of Trek mountain bikes, including Women’s Specific Design models made to fit better from the start.
