Transcend Trail Academy- Mountain Bike / MTB Skills Glentress / 7 Stanes

Trail Riding 0.1

The next step on from the Fundamentals course aimed at Intermediate to Advanced riders who want to develop their MTB handling skills to the next level.

The Trail Riding Course is perfect for those who are comfortable riding all but the most daunting sections of the Red route at any of the 7 Stanes or Glentress, and who are physically fit.

On the Trail Riding course you will be taught the following techniques:
• Slow speed control
• Manuals
• Rock steps
• Drop offs
• Jumps

Based at some of the finest trails in Europe the day starts with a focus on core riding techniques such as Track Stands and Manuals. The second half of the day (after a rather tasty lunch at the Hub Café) is based at the MTB Skills Loop section of the Glentress trails. There, we will begin to apply your newfound skills to real trail obstacles like, Rock Steps, Drop-Offs, and Jumps.

Finally, the day is rounded off by a swift downhill cruise back to the hub for more Coffee and Cake.
