Mountain Biking Courses
Back Country Skills
with Liam Scott
|
|
| |
Ride in the high mountains of The Lake District on some of the UK’s most amazing and seldom explore backcountry bike trails. Far from the crowds of the groomed trail centres we take you on two days of pure wilderness riding, teaching you some skills along the way to help you enjoy yourself all the more.
Run by Liam Scott this course is all about learning by experience – getting in amongst the big peaks and ridges, improving your riding, learning a bit about bike navigation, survival techniques and equipment selection as you go. Liam is not only a qualified Mountain Bike Leader and SMBLA Tutor, he is also a Winter Mountain Leader and a Lake District National Park Ranger; If you want a guide to take you into remote mountains you couldn’t choose a better person.
All courses are run in small groups of just 8 clients. You do need to be quite fit and a competent rider as there will be some long climbs, portages, technical riding, and plenty of time on exposed high mountain terrain. Note that there may be some short drives to reach the start points of rides so please come prepared to car-pool on one or both days. |
