It's the time of year where you're asked what the hell you want for Christmas, so I was wondering whether these half (or full) day mtb skills courses are any good...

I'm on the SW tip of Wales so has anyone any experiences of any at Brechfa or Afan?

Cheers ears smile

Cant help you with location but being relativly new to mtb and not biking for a while I've done a couple of courses with these people : http://www.mtbskillsclinics.co.nz/ ( phunamentals and trailmaster 1)

They've been huegly worthwhile for understanding whats going on, for floating over trails, for technical stuff, for going faster and going smoother.

I can say that they are well worth it...... even if you feel like you are a good rider, the likelyhood is that you make the best of bad habits. They can really improve your abilities and your thirst for riding. So yeah i'd recommend it to anyone.

Unfortunately I can't help you out locationwise cos the guys I know www.ukbikeskills.co.uk are based around Herts/Beds/Bucks area but I think they do offer voulchers for crimbo/b'day pressies!
