"In December we traveled to Ramona with three HU friends from last years CA meeting to spend a day with Bonnie and Andrea learning off-road skills. We all improved our skills and more importantly, our confidence. Maybe most important of all - we all had a GREAT time. Bonnie and Andrea are wonderful people and terrific teachers. Don't miss this opportunity."
-Sandy & Mike Dimond, Meeting Hosts
"Bonnie and Andrea adjust the course based on your current riding ability whether you are a green as Kermit beginner, advanced MX shredder or studly world ADV rider. All types of riders can benefit from Coach2ride's custom tailored dirt school. What's wonderful about Bonnie and Andrea's instructional approach is that even with a larger class with various skill levels they customize the curriculum to engage and challenge on all levels. Everyone walks away thrilled with the new knowledge and riding confidence that they have acquired by the end of the class."
-Nicole Espinosa aka "Nicomama"

Who:
Open to all riders registered for the HU meeting in Cambria. Meeting registration is HERE.
Space is limited and it's first come first served. Riders should be competent and comfortable on their bikes. Off-road experience is not required.
What:
Here's what you'll need:
- Snacks, lunch and water.
- Gear: Minimally have a good helmet, gloves, heavy boots, blue jeans and a long sleeved shirt. Full dirt riding gear or dual sport riding and touring gear is ideal, but be aware it may get hot.
- Mechanical: bike in good order, knobbies or dual-sport tires will work best. Street bike tires will NOT work.
- Type of bike. It has to be a legal dual sport bike that can go at least 150 miles. Terrain will be a combination of street and dirt. You can bring a smaller dual sport bike, but make sure to bring extra gas or make friends with a fellow with a big gas tank.
Lodging Thursday night is your responsibility (HU will not have access to the Meeting location until Friday afternoon). There is primitive camping at the OHV area, but no facilities.
There is a KOA campground about 30 miles away (and it's a beautiful ride!). There are hotels in Atascadero - about 30 miles away.
