WHAT TO BRING
FOR EVERY RIDE
REQUIRED
-> CSA approved Helmet
-> A bike in good repair with a bell (it is the law)! If you are unsure about your bike handling the trails in the area of your ride, please email clear pictures of your bike from a few angles
-> Valid ID – we need you to carry identification and cell phones are always recommended
-> Water and snacks to bring on the trail (amount depends on the ride length)
-> Closed toed shoes are mandatory. NO SANDALS
-> Weather appropriate clothing (Mountain Adventure weekend clinic participants are encouraged to bring options for changing weather!)
-> Bike School & Shredders: Your laminated SheShreds membership card (you'll get this on Welcome Night)
RECOMMENDED
-> It is HIGHLY recommended you bring an extra tube for your bike, as well as a bike tool and bike tire levers - SheShreds is a "no drop group" and we will help you as much as possible if you have a mechanical issue. It is good practice to be self-sufficient.
-> Clips are not ideal for our lesson format (all clinics, Bike School and private lessons). Flat pedals are strongly recommended for a variety of reason, including a safer learning environment. For Shredder's rides, clips are fine if this is what you are used to.
-> Gloves and glasses are highly recommended for protecting your hands and your eyes.
-> Chamois (bike underwear) is also a highly highly highly recommended investment.
-> Sunscreen/bug spray
-> Knee pad/shin pad/elbow pad/body armour - this is highly personal but if it makes you feel more comfortable, wear it!
-> Mountain Adventure Clinic: Full face helmet - not required, but if you have one and it makes you feel more comfortable, wear it.
