Skills Workshops | Tune-up Your Technique

Are you planning a trip to The Alps this summer? Or maybe you're keeping things closer to home with a visit to one or two of the UK's superb network of trail centers? Either way, you'll get a lot more out of your trip if you sharpen your skills up before you set off.

To help we have a wide range of terrain specific workshops to make sure you get the most out of your riding, be it in The Alps, Scotland's 7 Stanes or even your local woods.

Choose from a selection of workshops covering some of the most common areas for improvement including steep terrain, roots, cornering, hops and drops and energy management.

To keep things intimate our student to coach ratio is kept low at 4:1 to maximise personal feedback and analysis.

Summer Special Offer

Book yourself on two or more workshops at the same time and get a free copy of the brilliant Mastering Mountain Bike Skills by Brian Lopes and Lee McCormack (worth £15.99).

Available Workshops

• Hops & Drops
• Mastering Cornering

School Holidays | Family Mountain Bike Experiences to Remember

The summer school holidays are already in full swing so if you're looking for a cracking family day out, why not bring your gang along for a mountain bike skills day in The Surrey Hills.

We'll provide everything you need to get you out on the trails enjoying some off-road fun. Bikes and equipment can be hired if you don't already have your own.

Sessions can last as little as two hours, but we can also keep you entertained for a whole day with a combination of basic skills training and expert guiding around some of the finest trails in the South of England.

So, to solve the problem of what to do with the kids this summer, just call our team of experts on 0333 12 12 125.
