Who said Day trip?! We did. Join us for a rip out to some Alberta Bike Parks to play on drops, jumps, new trails and pump tracks with a group of encouraging fellow bike fanatics.
SHRED ON!
The encouragement of your bike squad can make a massive difference. Come along and take over a local bike park for the day.
​
This field trip has no instruction, simply a bunch of folks out for a day riding and exploring a new area.
​
Field trips are guided by two leaders. These trained leaders are first aid certified and have completed SheShreds specific training on group management, trail communications, health & safety protocols and risk management.
​
It is the riders responsibility to ride within their ability and to practice independent progression on bike park features.
​
Leaders will guide the group on trails in the area, and the bike park features based on a general route plan, but can decide to change course depending on conditions, weather or group energy levels. No one is left behind.
​
Participants are responsible for travel arrangements and food.
If you identify as female or non-binary, know that you are welcome.

​
