Back in August, I started a discussion titled, Let's experiment with an online MTB practice jam. Here's a draft of the idea for your feedback. So let’s do it! I’m looking for a dozen+ subscribers to commit to this first online practice jam, starting Saturday November 12 and ending Sunday, December 11. No charge for this jam as participants will be helping me learn my into it.
I'm in! However! We're just about to transition to our Winter Pattern. We're closing up our 3 season warm climate home and moving back into our RV for the cold season and getting back on the road. I probably won't be able to get on my bike much over the first week - 10 days, but I'll jump in as soon as I can. I'll chime in the conversations though.
I'll focus on a trio of skills:
-building a perpetual pump corning in CW (I can do this CCW until cardio & muscle fatigue set in)
-improving bunny hop from the middle of the bike instead of relying on the far more dangerous manual initiation
I just emailed you as well. I'm in. Gonna work on trackstands, as that seems like another one of those skills that feeds into several other useful ones. It also has no prerequisites that you need to be good at before you start them.

Great to hear, Michael. Your delay in starting should be no problem. It's not a course!
Yes I am in thanks for the reminder.
You're welcome, Mark. Glad you can do it!

Bonus: indoor practice!
Excellent, Dave. An invitation is on the way. Track stands are a perfect skill to learn during a cold snowy winter.
