Looks fine to me, simple clear layout earns points from me.

One concern, does Tim have a connection to Team McCoy?

I like the BIG and BOLD layout - very clear. Have you joined any of the social networking sites? I would suspect a lot of information could be sent out via these mediums and constantly remind people who you are and what you are about...

Could get your 300 friends a bit higher...

Could you just make the header font the same colour as the logo...thank you very much.

Looks good and if I had spare cash to burn it's definately something I'd consider doing

Another thumbs up. I like the visuals and the text is clear and concise. I didn't spot any howlers in the English. A little more detail on the sort of skills people will be taught at each level would perhaps help.

Yup. Where do the manual, bunny hop, sideways hop, pre-jump and drop-off appear in your levels? I'd like some idea of the sort of skills I'll be learning at each level. Obviously there are many other aspects such as reading the trail and choosing a line which you could also detail for each level.

Edit: same for the BMX section. I think many potential customers are unaware of the skills needed to get around a track quickly and giving them a name will motivate people to want to learn to do them.

Edit again: Sorry, I hadn't found the extra page for each level. I had tried to click on the white "level 1" rather than the green heading. The first green heading in capitals isn't clickable but the others are. I suggest the same colour for everything clickable.

Looks good

I had the same problem finding prices as sadbloke - I think it's because when you go to the mtb skills page the first title in green is not a hyperlink, therefore you assume that the other identical styled titles are also not hyperlinks and don't click on them?
