Calendar

We’re at Croft on Wednesday evening as usual, for some laps of the trail, which has a different feel in the dark! (don’t worry, it’s good fun! 😊 )

You will need a helmet and lights – it gets very dark in those trees.

Meet in the Croft car park at 5.30pm

This is our first #getintomtb event of 2018 and is aimed anyone starting off mountain biking, or coming back to it after a break.

We will being laps of the Croft Trail in Swindon, which is a great trail for starting and progressing on a mountain bikes. There will be 2 ride leaders with mixed and ladies only groups.

Club coach (and maintenance instructor) Gaz will be there to run through the M check, so you can check your bike is ready for the trail before setting off. We will then take you round the trail and point out some of the features along the way. Don’t worry, everything is optional, but we will be there to encourage you 🙂

Please bring a helmet and suitable clothing (if it’s raining you will need waterproofs).

We will also be holding a “Questions Amnesty” where you can ask anything you always wanted to know about mountain biking, but were afraid to ask, anonymously. Ask your questions here.

We’ve got another weekend session at Croft coming up.

This is a perfect opportunity to try a mountain bike trail if you haven’t before, or just to reintroduce yourself if it’s been a while (it’s been a pretty grotty winter!).

We will have at least 2 ride leaders there, doing ladies only and mixed groups of all abilities.

We will meet in the Croft Car Park at 10.30am

Please bring a helmet

We’ve been off on hols for a few weeks, so before things get back to normal, we’re going to make this one a bit of a bash!

We are going to be begin with a family ride, doing laps of the trail. So bring your kids (who remain your responsibility at all times) and we will be going round from 4.30 for about an hour.

After that we move on to the regular style session,  starting with a lap of the Blue trail to warm up, then sees what people want to do next.

And as it’s the end of summer, we’ll thrown on some snacks and drinks to celebrate too, so come and join us!

This a very relaxed ride, at an easy pace, with lots of opportunities to develop and practice skills. Everyone is welcome and this is a great introductory ride if you’re just starting or coming back to mountain biking.

You must bring a helmet, but you don’t need lights 😊
Also thoroughly recommend insect repellent!

Meet in the Croft car park at 4.30pm for the family laps, 5.30pm onwards for adults.

We will start with a lap of the Blue trail to warm up, then sees what people want to do next. The options will be to head over the motorway to Wroughton for a couple of laps of the new pump track there, do a practice trip up and then down Ladder Lane, or just more laps of Croft.

Wednesday rides are back with a new format.

The evening will be split into two parts:

6-7pm will be a Croft trail ride, laps of the trail (when it gets lighter we will also be sessioning some of the features)

7-8.15pm will be a local, fairly flat route, less than 10km in total.

These rides are part of our GetintoMTB series, designed for anyone just starting mountain biking, coming back after a break or just wanting a shorter, flatter ride 😊

Helmets are compulsory and you will also need lights at the moment.

Meet in the Croft car park for both rides
