The Gorlech trail, Brechfa forest

Carmarthenshire is made for biking with wild moorland and mountain rides, undulating rural trails, rocky bridleways, endless forest roads and singletrack, loads of old drovers' roads and long since used footpaths, beautiful green lanes through time-stopped villages and world-class trail centres - all right from the door.

Courses

MTB Skills Courses

For those looking to take their mountain biking to another level or just off that plateau they've been sat on. We run courses designed around bikers needs, whether it's learning how to ride trails more comfortably or tackling those technical ascents on a mountain ride. We also cover map work/navigation, night riding, group safety, trailside repairs, bike accidents in our residential courses.

Maintenance and trailside repair

These courses cover all the essentials to prolong the life of your bike and to get it working again when you crash. Loads of handy tips and techniques built up from years of riding and coaching to make bike tech easy.
