Learning to pump your bike in order to gain speed without pedaling is an advanced skill that applies to all aspects of mountain biking. It’s also the foundation of jumping! You’ll develop a deeper understanding of momentum and balance that will help you to ride stronger for longer, no matter what kind of riding you like to do! We’ll use the pump track in Gorham and the surrounding trails to integrate this fun skill.
