Introduction
to Trail Riding - Two Day Course
Our Introduction
to Trail Riding is an action packed two day course, which
will give you the skills you need to enjoy and progress with your mountain
biking.
Our mountain
bike skills courses are based at Glentress, south of Edinburgh. Glentress
has been voted Best UK Trail by Singletrack magazine two years running
and is the perfect location to hone your skills.
Our introductory course is aimed at
those with little off-road experience. We aim to give you all the skills
necessary to ride moderate mountain bike
trails competently, confidently, safely and with a huge grin.
Our courses run over two days (normally weekends) and cover everything
from safety and trail etiquette, bike set up and equipment maintenance,
balance, braking, climbing, descending, cornering, dealing with obstacles
(roots, rocks and drop-offs) to basic navigation and training.
Over the two action-packed, fun filled days
you will discover how to get the most from your body and bike. Our
courses are limited to a maximum
of six students and this ensures personal attention from our expert instructors
as well as a friendly, relaxed and supportive atmosphere.
