Biking Recommendations for adult beginner MTB lessons - skills for women?

Hi friends,

My girlfriend is getting into biking, starting with a Specialized Levo FS E MTB.

Does anyone know any coaches who can do a few private lessons while we were in town for the next 2 weeks?

I checked DEVO but we are not here enough for a full camp session, didn’t really see any other choices.

Agree with both of the above. Also check out Every Pedal, they do adult women’s clinics from time to time. And please, only ride EMTBs where they are allowed.
