RGS Biker Boys session!

This is a brief outline of the sessions however as its a private group, it can be tailor made around the boys and what they would like to ride/achieve.

These sessions are designed for riders who have already secured strong basic bike skills and are ready to progress further. Coaching will focus on developing techniques such as:

• Cornering on natural trails

• Riding steeper terrain

• Small drops and small jumps

• Maintaining control and confidence over longer trail distances

Coaches will work with riders to develop:

• Controlled stopping using back brake, front brake, and combined braking

• Strong, adaptable riding positions for low overhead obstacles, ground obstacles, and undulating terrain

• Effective body movement on the bike to manage sharp bumps and trail features such as inclines, corners, and rapid changes in direction

• Stability and control to neutralise bumps and trail undulations while riding at speed

Sessions will include trail riding off site as well as using Trail Academy’s private trails, pump track and jump line!

Price per session is £60.00 (to include a hire bike)

Location: Duke of Kent School, Peaslake Road, Ewhurst Surrey GU6 7NS
