Designed with you in mind

We can offer half-day, full-day or multi-day mountain biking sessions for existing cyclists, those new to the sport or for people who just fancy some muddy good fun!

We develop routes and activities that suit fitness and ability and will tailor skills training, navigation and maintenance advice applicable to everyone’s level of knowledge and experience.

On a BikeRight! mountain biking experience you get more than a guided ride in beautiful countryside. You can develop specific techniques to improve your off-road riding experience and knowledge of cycling and the countryside, such as:

  • Ride rocky climbs and sweeping descents
  • Learn to track-stand
  • Techniques for front and rear wheel lifts
  • Correct braking techniques on loose ground
  • Body positioning and bike handling
  • Trail-reading and line choice
  • Navigation techniques and map reading tips
  • The countryside and mountain bike codes
  • Consideration for other trail users
  • Trail-side maintenance advice
  • And much much more…

Special needs and learning difficulties

We have access to specialist bikes and appropriately trained personnel to handle groups with special needs and learning difficulties. Call us for more information.

 

One-to-one training

Our experienced instructors can offer one-to-one training for those people who can not make one of our group courses. Availability very much depends on timings and existing commitments so please email or phone us to discuss your requirements. Prices will vary depending on location and dates.

Training for charity rides and expeditions

Whether you’re pootling through the British countryside or riding 200 miles across the Sahara desert for your chosen cause you would benefit from some cycling training. Improve your technique for long distance charity rides, ensure you stay safe whilst riding through monsoon soaked India, develop your climbing ability for a two-wheeled assault on Everest or just hone your riding before tackling an End to End or Coast to Coast trip.
