Fun challenging hor

It was a lot of fun. Having not done mountain biking before it was a very enjoyable experience. Being out in nature with lots of variety of trails- lovely challenging 2 hours spent.

Great coaching session

Had a training session with Simon today. He was a great coach and gave me useful tips and video footage showing what to work on that I’m sure will help in future. The location and training area were great. Will definitely go back for the trails one day. Would definitely recommend for the coaching.

Coaching session with Aidan

Our coaching session with Aidan was fantastic. He struck the perfect balance between pushing us just outside our comfort zones while still making the experience enjoyable and confidence-building. Despite being at different levels of riding ability, we both felt that the session was tailored to our individual needs and progression. By the end of the two hours, we were riding trails we wouldn't have attempted before—and actually enjoying them. Highly recommended for riders of any level looking to improve.
