This Super Clinic is back on! I have found enough instructors and will have enough volunteers to make this a successful event. I still need volunteers to come out and help the instructors.

Unlike the Beginner Clinic series, you will need to be a DORBA member or FWMBA member to attend. This is to keep the size of this clinic down, and to reward those who support these two excellent clubs.

Requirements: You must sign a DORBA Liability Waiver (http://files.meetup.com/3841722/NEW-WAIVER.pdf), bring a bike, a good attitude, and a bicycle helmet that you are willing to wear for the entire clinic. Please download the DORBA liability waiver, http://files.meetup.com/3841722/NEW-WAIVER.pdf fill it out, and bring it with you. We will only have a FEW copies on hand for people who don't have a printer. If you don't have a signed waiver, you will not be allowed to attend the clinic.

We DO require that you bring and use your helmet and strongly advise you to bring water. If you do not agree with our helmet requirement you will not be allowed to participate.

Please read the Clinic FAQs (http://dorba.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=218)

This clinic is dependent upon good weather and trail conditions. CHECK THIS POST THE MORNING OF THE CLINIC for any changes or cancelations. i.e. don't ask me "is this thing still going to happen". If I have to cancel because of weather, I will make the appropriate announcement on this thread.

You must be 15 years old to attend these skills clinics. Parent are responsible for the happiness, behavior, and safety of their teens every single minute of the clinic. All attendees under 18 must have a parent or legal guardian with them. You can not drop off your kid.
