WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS?
Here are some of the aspects we can work on together during a tour:
It is essential to be comfortable and confident in controlling the bicycle. This includes skills such as balancing, maneuvering and effective turns.
Mastery of climbing and descending techniques is important for navigating varied terrain. This includes skills such as gear selection and controlling speed when going downhill.
Correct progression requires overcoming obstacles such as stones, roots, barriers, steps and drops. Skills such as bunny hop and wheelie are essential for safe and active driving.
Knowing correct braking techniques is essential to maintaining control and speed management on descents. Learning when and how to modulate the brakes effectively can avoid skidding and loss of control.
Knowing how to position your body on the bike can improve stability and control. This includes techniques such as keeping your weight centered, leaning into turns, and shifting your body weight to improve traction.
For more experienced riders, jumping and falling skills come into play. It’s about understanding techniques such as preload, timing of takeoff and landing, and maintaining stability in the air
Learning to read the trail and anticipate obstacles is essential for safe and efficient riding. This includes evaluating terrain characteristics, choosing the best line and adjusting your riding technique accordingly to it.
