💜 RIDER FOCUS 💜
Meet Sam and have a read below about her MTB journey so far:
“Having ridden road bikes for many years I really wanted to give mountain biking a go, hopefully improve my bike skills. I chose to do an intro course at Ashton Court. Hire bike at the ready, I met Vic and Hannah and immediately knew I was going to enjoy it. They were so great and helpful, put everyone at ease. With Ollie K coaching along side explaining everything so clearly the session was amazing.
I went on to purchase my own hard tail, had 3 more lessons and was taking myself off all over the place to practice. Joined some other groups ending up at BPW. Still very new with everyone being so supportive I was persuaded to try things beyond anything I imagined. The adrenaline rush was incredible and it took ages to come down off that high.
To say this makes me happy is an understatement, I have pushed myself outside my comfort zone so much and it feels amazing. I wish I had started sooner and I am trying to convince all my other cycling friends to give it a go as I think it will really help their confidence, and hopefully put as big a smile on their faces as on mine. Everyone is so nice, it is a community I think everyone should be involved.
I can only say the biggest thanks to Vic and Hannah of Tribe Adventures for making my first experience of this amazing sport so perfect that I now can’t imagine my life without it. Can’t wait to join them again x”
