If you're looking to advance your riding this summer, we've just kicked off our 2009 season in California, and there's still room in most of the camps throughout the western US, BC, and Alberta. The Dirt Series delivers world-class instruction with the goal of developing skills in a supportive step-by-step process that gets past the fears and into the fun of what mountain biking is all about. Whether that means clocking in air miles or meeting new riding buddies, we'll make your 2009 mountain biking season one that counts.

Our next few camps are coming up in Vancouver and Whistler BC, with some special offers for Vancouver, including a one-time 25% off shopping spree at any Different Bikes location and 30% off the 2008 Ladies-Only Rocky Mountain Slayer. You can see the full schedule here: www.dirtseries.com

Take your riding to the next level in fun not fear

Get an entire season of learning under your pedals in two days with the Dirt Series by Rocky Mountain Bicycles


New cross-country mountain bikers tired of just-go-for-it advice and downhillers itching to give their skills a jump are invited to sign up for North America’s premier traveling mountain bike program, the Dirt Series by Rocky Mountain Bicycles.

The Dirt Series is geared to riders of all motivations and levels with women’s-only and co-ed camps in California, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Alberta, and British Columbia.

“Every year we work to refine and progress what the Dirt Series offers,” says camp founder Candace Shadley. “For 2009, we've added advanced level programming, so that even more experienced riders can learn to be smoother, faster and more confident all around. I guess new programming like this is what you need when you've been helping beginner and intermediate riders improve in leaps and bounds every year.”

The Dirt Series by Rocky Mountain Bicycles is famous for its high return rate of repeat offenders. Getting your tire over a log on an up-hill climb or nailing that drop that stared you down last summer is too big a pay off not to come back for more.

This year the Whistler-based program broke a registration record: the May camp in Santa Cruz filled up within 48 hours. With more than 5,000 riders pedaling through the program over the past nine years, word is getting around just as fast as the sign ups, and sometimes the wait lists as well.

The secret to camp sell outs is found in the same balance it takes for a rider to successfully navigate a plank bridge – technique and attitude. The weekend camp includes small-group skill sessions, instructional rides and social time led by motivational coaches who seek to both inform and empower. As national and world champions, as well as health and wellness professionals, coaches bring plenty of tire time and dedication to the camps.
