Guided Bike Rides ~ Intro & Improver Courses
Based on the South Coast, we’re just a short pedal from the South Downs and some truly breathtaking off road bike rides. There’s something for everyone, from the novice just starting out to the highly skilled, experienced biker! Our courses are ideal if you are new to mountain biking or looking to improve your skills and gain confidence to enhance your biking experience.
MTB Intro – building skills & confidence
Led by a MIAS Level 2 Instructor you will learn the fundamental bike control skills required to ride off road and on single track.
We start with the basics, such as riding position, taking corners and swerving, and focus on building confidence and getting them right first before progressing on to more challenging terrain and single track.
During the session you will learn how:
- to brake efficiently and under control
- to negotiate frequently found obstacles such as tree roots, narrow gaps, small steps and sharp corners
- to adopt the correct riding position to give more control and for a smoother ride
- to tackle undulating terrain; uphill and downhill terrain confidently
Price: £75 per person (max 6) & £150 one to one
Sessions are 3hrs and are available on a one to one or small group basis.
Bike and helmet hire available on request.
Please contact us if you would prefer a longer or shorter session, or bespoke content focused on your requirements.
