Discover Mountain Biking

These courses are for the complete beginner and for those wanting to get into mountain biking but not sure where to begin or who are lacking the confidence when riding.  Having that help on hand with starting your journey and ensuring you are learning the fundamentals correctly will only help your riding ability progress quicker. We put the theory into practice and then the practice into actual riding.

They are filled with encouragement, fun and laughter.  The more you can relax the better you will become.

So please get in touch to put your name down for the group session so we can get you riding confidently as soon as possible.

If you would rather not wait or would like a more personal session then we can do an individual half day or private groups see below – £200
