| Please dress for the
weather, wear sunscreen if necessary (we stay out of the
sun about 80% of the time) bring spare clothing, etc...
Specifically please bring:
TUNED-UP BIKE - there are few
requirements for LR's bikes. As long it is the right size
and works fine we will not have a problem with it. Any
mechanical deficiencies will disqualify the bike and your
child might have to miss the day so please tune-up your
bike well ahead of time
HELMET-
although we recommend full face helmets, we allow LRs to
wear well-fitting road and bmx style helmets. You can rent
helmets from us.
PADS- arm
and leg pads are required for all camps. We allow
skate-board type pads for knees and elbows, however we
recommend proper mountain bike pads that cover the area
from ankles to above knees and from wrists to above
elbows. Chest protectors are not required.
BACKPACK-
to carry LUNCH and WATER. It should be a very small or
hydropack style backpack that will not interfere with
riding. Kids take their backpacks wherever they go. No
tools are required for LRs, however a spare tube of right
size could be useful.
CLOTHING-
we suggest you use non-cotton clothing for kids. T-shirts
should be breathable. Shorts should reach to or below
knees and be made of thicker material (there are special
riding shorts available at bike stores). Shoes should be
flat, skate-board style shoes only! Gloves are highly
recommended.
FOOD-
please avoid peanut based foods and / or instruct your
children not to share any food in the course of the camp.
Please do not pack large amounts of candy/ bars. |
