"Are you ready to send it BIG with Pro Riders/Instructors Rich Drew and Mason DeKeyrel of The Ride Series?!

TRS Ground School creates the safest environment possible to progress in jumping. No more guessing games or just watching riders hit the big jumps, it’s time for YOU to learn how it’s done!

Consistency is the goal for most riders and the repeatability we provide will get you there. Multiple takeoffs and landings combined with instant video feedback will allow you to make more progress than you ever thought possible! You’ll even get a sweet JUNK headband.

Newer jumper or someone on the cusp of hitting that sweet whip, our Ground School provides the environment for you to get tons of reps and the instant coach feedback will help you hone in on exactly what you need to do.

These sessions will take place at the Bentonville BikeFest site and are designed for 12yo+.

Rich Drew

Rich found his two-wheeled calling at the ripe age of five when he followed his brother into the world of BMX. (Yes, “Rad” is his favorite movie.) Rich eventually made the move to mountain biking where he competed professionally in XC and enduro, winning races and championships along the way. In 2015, Rich combined his love of riding with his background in corporate training to create The Ride Series. His feel for the nuances of both teaching and the trail enables him to break down complex skills into understandable steps that riders of every level can appreciate and apply.

Mason De Keyrel

Mason has managed to pack five decades’ worth of experience into under 25 years of living. Born into a motorsports racing family, Mason cut his teeth and bruised a few body parts racing in motorcross and BMX. After adding professional enduro and downhill races to his CV, Mason joined TRS as an adjunct professor of awesomeness. (He has since achieved full tenure.) Mason’s cool demeanor belies his ability to clearly define and demonstrate the gnarliest of skills. In other words, he can share it, explain it, and help you nail it.
