Ride the New 25-mile Mountain Bike Trail Veterans” Park Now open

We created a mountain bike skills camp filled with fun and adventure, not boring, repetitive drills. And when this idea came about, we decided to include other experiences as well. You’ll spend each morning on the bike dialing in the trails’ features with Marla and other pro coaches. Afterwards, you can enjoy a zip line tour through the rainforest canopy, a trip to waterfalls, surfing on one of our beautiful beaches, snorkeling off of Cabuya Island, and more. At night, you’ll relax in comfy cabinas in Montezuma, a funky little beach town with lots of shops, delicious food, and local color. We supply the bikes, transportation, and mechanical support during the camp. We provide breakfast and lunch, freeing you to find the restaurants of your choice for dinner. Just bring your helmet, shoes, and sunblock… and we’ll show you a good time!

During the mid-1970s, Mike Sinyard, his friends and other carefree cyclists from California to Colorado began to negotiate winding dirt trails and careen down rocky hills. They rode modified, fat-tired machines called clunkers and hoped for the best. They crashed their modified and renovated 1930s and 1940s Schwinn, B.F. Goodrich and Hawthorne bikes, wrecked their bodies, thrived on the thrill and returned for more. Perhaps Sinyard landed on his head less often than others. And with a unique convergence of ingenuity, timing and risk-taking, the proprietor of a then seven-year-old road bicycle manufacturer and distributor in San Jose, took another uncharted leap. Sinyard believed other thrill-seekers might want to get in on the fun. Soon enough, the Specialized Stumpjumper was born. While others were about to do the same, Sinyard took a business risk not too dissimilar from the chances he took on his bike. With the help of a framebuilder friend from Santa Cruz, he offered mountain bikes to the national public. With the slogan "It's Not Just A New Bicycle, It's A Whole New Sport," the composite steel, 15- speed, 29-pound bike made its debut. The Stumpjumper had 26x2.25-inch tires, it was painted blue and it cost $750 ($395 for the frame only). The bike's first production order was 250 units and sold out quickly, followed by another 250.

Freeride mountain biking refers to a type of mountain bike riding style. Freeride usually involves large drops, jumps, and manmade stunts. The trails are often accessed by shuttle or ski lift but can be pedaled as well. Freeride bikes usually have large amounts of suspension travel (6" to 8"+) and are built to take a beating

Types of mountain bikes Full-suspension Mountain Bikes These come with both front fork suspension and rear suspension integrated in the bike frame. These bikes somewhat resemble a motorcycle. They offer much more riding comfort than hardtail but weighs more than the mid-weight hardtails. Due to advances in technology, full-suspension maintenance has become easier. Some bike suspension companies have come out with suspension lock-out. This gives a full- suspension bike a stiff rear similar to that of a hardtail. This is advantageous during off the saddle climbs and sprints to the fin
