March 3, 2005 – The BetterRide/Marla Streb Mountain Bike Skills Camp will take place on April 28th through May 1st. This camp is limited to 14 riders to ensure the optimal athlete coach ratio of 7 to 1. This is an amazing opportunity to learn from one of the most talented racers in the sport and her long time adviser/coach Gene Hamilton.

Marla has been working with Gene throughout her career and she has recently started joining Gene as a guest coach in his BetterRide camps. Their first camp together in January sold out and was a big hit with the riders.

Designed for recreational riders and cross country racers this Mountain Bike Skills Camp focuses on balance, climbing and descending skills, energy management and FUN. This camp will help recreational riders beat up on their riding buddies and allow racers to shave 2-6 minutes an hour off cross country race times (guaranteed).
