Macs Adventure - Testimonials

Macs adventure is dedicated to delivering adventure excellence. Many of our clients return year after year and here is some of the feedback we have recently received.

"Cara and I had originally planned too ride the route unsupported. In the end we went with Macs Adventure and loved every second of it. Having a a change of clothes ferried from one hostel or B&B to the next was nothing short of luxurious. Superb picnic lunches were a real treat, and it was great not to have to scrabble around with a bunch of soggy OS maps when it poured down. As the riding was so good it also meant we could make the most of the trails without a heavy backpack weighing us down.

"The Atmosphere at Macs Adventure was superb; organised but laid back, like we were with a bunch of mates." Cass Gilbert writing for What Mountain Bike magazine - February 06 - Scottish Coast to Coast May 2005

"According to the Pros, the Scottish Borders offer some of the best mountain-bike trails this side of Colorado. Macs Adventure runs courses through Glentress Forest, which is just outside Peebles. The purpose built trails offer super fast singletrack descents, banked corners, jumps, drop-offs and switchback climbs - basically everything a mountain biker could ask for. The one-day Introduction to Trail Riding Course is the place for the beginner: you'll learn essential skills before navigating increasingly dramatic descents." - The Times Newspaper - April 22, 2006

Thanks for the course, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and learnt loads. We've already been to Ae to practice berms and (smallish) jumps! Martin and Angela (MTB Course)

Thanks for a great weekend, I will certainly be putting into practice what you showed us when I go to Lanzarote at the end of the month. Steve, UK. (Intermediate Trail Riding)

Just a quick note to let you know that i had an awesome time on my course, i wish i could have rode for a week. It was well organised and Ali was a fantastic instructor. Glentress is a great forest and I wish I could relocate it to Australia. Kim, Australia (Introductory MTB)

Thanks for organising a superb day out on Sunday. The location was perfect and the instruction was excellent - please pass my thanks onto Ian. You even managed to book sunny weather aswell! Stephen, UK.
