"Wow, where do I start. Patrick Howell is an excellent instructor. I’ve been mountain biking only four months prior to Patrick’s clinic and questioned if I had enough experience to even take this course. There were roughly 10 students of all levels. Some as inexperienced as myself and some who have been riding for several years. Patrick’s knowledge, skills, dynamic personality and most of all patience paid off for all students attending that weekend. Not only did we have a so much fun, I witnessed all the students became better riders. I personally felt like I trimmed a year off my learning curve. Here I am a year later ripping corners, doing jumps and riding with more experience riders. I can’t wait for spring to take his advanced courses. If you’re a beginner and want to avoid a long learning curve or an experienced rider who wants to improve on or learn new skills, a highly recommend taking a class with Patrick. You’ll have a great time and become a much better rider."
