Things to consider

The trails we will be riding will be natural trails steeper than most red graded trails and I will select trails of a suitable difficulty for the riders on the course. However, you must be confident riding red graded trails, have some experience of riding rocky natural trails and/or have taken part in a coaching session with me.

For 11-18 year olds. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.

What to bring to your coaching session

  • A mountain bike in full working order
  • Helmet and gloves 
  • Other protective clothing or equipment that you would normally use for a MTB ride. Knee pads are recommended.
  • Flat pedals/shoes are required
  • A completed rider information and consent form. Follow the link at checkout

Suitable clothing

Please wear suitable clothing for the weather conditions. This is not a continuous ride, so long sleeves, warm layers and a waterproof jacket are essential. I can carry your extra layers.
