SUMMARY:Ladies All Ride
DESCRIPTION:This camp will be hosted near Slaughter Pen recreation area (mountain bike playground) where we will spend the morning using the grass\, natural terrain and purpose-built obstacles to learn lots of awesome skills. In the afternoons we’ll hop on the nearby trail system which incorporates progressive features\, but also provides alternatives for riders of all levels. \nWhy is Northwest Arkansas an up and coming mountain biking destination in the country right now? Because the community and the local Walton Family Foundation take mountain biking seriously. They hired the best trail builders in the business to design an epic trail system within city limits with paved bike paths leading to every trailhead. The result\, a plethora of different trails to match any level of experience including some of the most competitive trails in the U.S. As if all this wasn’t enough\, the lower altitude allows enthusiasts to ride almost year-round.
