Mountain biking lesson

Had a lesson with Asher, this was really the first time I had been on a mountain bike trail. His instructions and guidance was excellent and very clear. Learnt alot about how to corner correctly and also didn't think I would ever have stood up on a mountain bike. Took abit longer to come down the hill but that didn't seem to worry him. Overall the whole experience was brilliant, that also includes the cafe accommodating my request for just a toasted Sandwich. Nice and clean and very helpful staff.

Amazing!

Got gifted an opportunity to give the introduction to downhill mountain biking a go and it was totally worth it! Have got some experience on flat terrain trail biking but wanted to give it a go and utilise the amazing opportunity at my door step! Did not disappoint! Freddie and Ben were such great leaders and were easy to talk to! I feel way more confident after my time with them! Highly recommend
