Want to build up your riding confidence and skills, right in downtown Toronto? Most people don't know that in the Don Valley lies an incredible network of almost 100km of beautiful singletrack. Not only are they amazing trails, but they're also a great training ground for our evening skills sessions! You'll get fun, new friends, and newfound riding confidence - right in the heart of Toronto!

Our Don Valley MTB U (Mountain Bike University) skills sessions take place in the spring and summer as a 5-week evening series, on weeknights from 6:15 to 8:15 pm, and cover a wide range of mountain biking skills, from the fundamentals all the way up to advanced riding techniques. You'll ride with our certified instructors and receive hands-on instruction in a friendly, no-attitude environment. We'll encourage you to push yourself and try new things, but we'll never take you out of your comfort zone - your safety is of paramount importance to us!
