On Saturday, May 13, twelve Norco Team and staff riders put on a riding clinic for members of the Sprockids Coastriders mountain bike club.

Utilizing the stunts, dirt jumps and trails of the Sprockids Park, the young riders were put through a variety of stations. They learned the skills necessary to safely and successfully ride skinnies, teeter totters, ramps, drop-offs, ladder bridges and dirt jumps.

Over the course of the morning, the skill level of the young riders improved dramatically, and by the end of the session many were riding stunts they previously had never even considered. In the afternoon it was time for the teenagers and adults to ride with the Norco crew. We all headed up Sidewinder to a newly built trail called Scream Machine, where the Norco riders put on a truly inspiration display of their riding expertise.

Norco has always had a very special relationship with Sprockids and the Sunshine Coast. The Norco riders love coming here, and this clinic was just another way Norco gives back to our community.
