Mountain Bike Coaching and Guiding in Bellingham, WA!
If you’re looking to improve your skills on the bike, be it jumping, drops or simply riding with more flow and fun, we would love to help! Mike Storm (owner and instructor) started Intrinsic Flow because of a belief that more flow equals more fun! Wether it’s jumping, manuals or learning to ride with more easy and fun, we’ve got you covered. And if you’re visiting and want to experience the amazing trails that we have in the area, take a look at our guiding options.
We’re shut down for the season to work on projects and to plan for the 2025 season, but private lessons or shuttles can still be booked. If you’re interested in a private lesson, guided ride for you or your group OR a shuttle for your group, use the contact tab above to send us a message. We would love to help! And if you’re looking for trailbuiding fun for your 10 to 14-year-old shredder, check out Youth Freeride. We’ll be hosting a trail building session for kids in the program and incoming students too! Check the Youth Freeride page for more details.
Our focus is flow. Mountain biking is filled with obstacles and that get in your way, slow you down or just upset that flow. Rocks, roots, jumps and drop-offs are all a blast for the experienced rider that knows how to ride them, but if you don’t, it can be anything but. The learning curve can be pretty steep in this sport. If you're struggling, I can help! I teach clinics on the skills that riders struggle with.
If you’re a beginner or intermediate rider, check out the adult clinics that we offer here.
For our kids clinics, check out the Youth Freeride Guild.
And if groups aren’t so much your thing, we also do private lessons.
And if you’re looking for a gift for a friend or significant other, gift certificates are a great way to go too!

If you’re from out of town and you want to see what the riding here is all about, don’t waste your time staring at a map all day! We have 3 established riding areas and 2 developing spots that are that are all within a 20 minute drive of Downtown Bellingham. Galbraith, Chuckanut and Blanchard Mountains are all easily accessible for half day rides, but substantial enough for all day or even a week (or more).
Give us a shout by using the Contact Tab above. We’re happy to do custom trips any time we’re available.
This begins our fifth year of service at Larrabee State Park running shuttles and we’ll be continuing work on the trails and we’ll be making a few enhancements too. If you’ve never ridden the shuttle at Chuckanut, then you definitely need to check it out. Nearly 1700 feet of descent (more ripping turns than you can shake a stick at and some new bits to keep things interesting. There are 2 major routes down the hill including Double Black/Double Down to get your fast and often flowey technical downhill fix OR Upper Ridge/Lower Ridge/Salal/Hemlock (5 miles over 1700 feet of descent) for a longer rolling (mostly) downhill trail with rock slabs, chunder and ending with undulating whoops.
