MTB Immersion – 2 Days

DUE TO COVID 19 AND CHANGING REGULATIONS ON GROUP SIZES AND LOCKDOWNS, DATES ARE NOT BEING ADVERTISED AND WILL THEREFORE RUN AS AND WHEN POSSIBLE.

This package is designed for beginners to intermediate riders – individuals, families or groups who would like to get away for a couple of days and get better at mountain biking. A chance to see and ride where the Surrey Hills meets the West Sussex and Hampshire borders. Having the right help in starting or improving your MTB journey and developing the fundamentals correctly will only help your riding ability progress even quicker. We put the theory into practice and then the practice into actual riding.  Not only do you get the coaching and the guided rides but also the opportunity to learn some practical skills on how to maintain your bike and do emergency trail side repairs like fixing a puncture, giving you the confidence to explore and not get caught out when riding on your own in the future.

This 2 day experience is designed for riders to come away and have some beautiful, feel good guided rides.  Whilst enabling some extra time for your muscle memory to take in your new learnt skills to become second nature. Improving your mountain biking is all about practice, practice, practice.

You can even rest over with us as we can cater for small groups and families at our self catered accommodation.  Take a look at the Old Cook,s House

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

Please get in touch to put your name down for the next available group session so we can get you riding confidently as soon as possible.  If you have your own group or family then please get in touch as we can accommodate this to your own needs.

If you are an individual and would rather not wait for a group to run and/or would like a more personal 2 days away then we can do 2 half days.
