Got the band back together at the NPHS MTB Team Training camp last weekend. Rode with some of my kids from last season' training group. Found the old road. Practiced the race lap, explored, climbed Tequepis. Also bike maintenance, trail etiquette, and nutrition clinics. Another fun season coming up. #MTB #MoreKidsOnBikes #SoCalLeague #LakeCachuma
