PE Mountain Biking

Mountain biking is conducted in our outdoor classroom. Students will cover topics on riding technique, equipment, maintenance and safety. Riders will explore the trails of Fort Rock, Stratham Hill Park and Bear Brook State Park. Mountain bikes provided by the Academy are equipped with front shocks and disc brakes to handle technical terrain. Clipless pedals and shoes are encouraged. Students have the opportunity to compete in a local mountain bike race during the course. The class meets four days a week with rides lasting 60 to 90 minutes. Bikes and helmets are provided by the department.
