Gorrick hosts Skills Training

Gorrick hosts Skills Training

Gorrick, the MTB club that has been organising XC races for nearly 20 years is to branch out with a series of training days to be held at Swinley Forest.

Teaming up with CTC trained mountain bike instructors, a number of mountain bike skills training days will help riders, young and old, new and old hand, to get the most out of their mountain biking.

Gorrick instructors will work with small groups of no more than six riders and, with their extensive local knowledge of Swinley Forest, will get right out onto the trails to the best sections to coach and develop riding skills.

There will be a choice of sessions pitched at different riding abilities. 'Forest Rider' is suitable for new and inexperienced riders through, while 'Singletrack Rider' will be aimed at more experienced.

The first event will take place on 26 April and will cater only for Forest Riders. For a full list of dates, head to www.gorrick.com/training/dates.php
