I have done two clinics with DCA. The first was in June 2021: I had just bought my first mountain bike (at age 61) and was struggling to ride some of the local trails and decided to get some help. The clinic was a game changer: after the morning instructions we rode some trails that I found challenging before and everything was easier and more fun. I was planning to only do the first day clinic since day two (drops, jumps) seemed a bit scary at the time, but ended up signing up for the second day, which was also super informative and great fun. Patrick is a very talented and patient coach and he knows how to build up skills and confidence very gradually but steadily. When I saw that Patrick was planning another clinic in my area this summer I immediately signed up for another two-day adventure. I was expecting this one to be less of a revelation than last year, but again I found myself surprised by how much one can gain in such a short time, both in terms of technical skills and increased confidence. I look forward to my next clinic with DCA! Thank you Patrick!
