Join Pippa on a morning ride exploring the Elan Valley. The route will include some hills (its the Cambrian mountain after all!) and a variety of terrain. Nothing too technical but I can promise you wonderful views and lots of fun! Suitable for those new to mountain biking and the more experienced. I'm also a mountain bike coach so I aim to encourage all riders to build their confidence with helpful tips along the way. The route will include the Nantgwllt trails where you can have a go at the free-flowing blue or trickier red trail (or just chill with an ice cream from conveniently parked van!)
On Friday July 22nd the brilliant Beth Perrou of Dirt She Nomads will be running an MTB ride and coaching day in Elan Valley (I'll post the details on Breeze Network Powys) and on Sunday 24th there's a ride at Nant yr Arain - so why not make a weekend of it!
