Need to brush up on your bike skills? Whistler Bike Guide is pleased to offer a Women's Mountain Bike Skills Clinics with Olympic Mountain Bike Athlete and Multiple World Cup Winner Chrissy DeVall Redden.
She and her husband Judd moved to Whistler with their 2 kids and we couldn't not ask her. The rides will run 5 consecutive Mondays or Wednesdays beginning May 16 and 18 and run through to mid-June.
