Start location can be anywhere in the Strath between Kingussie and Grantown but will be publicised on the website. Guest riders are always welcome but must register for the ride by midnight the previous day and provide a contact phone number. The ride will be at a no-drop pace with riders looking after each other.
A classroom-based course that shows you the whats, whys and wherefores of bike maintenance.
We’ll take you through the anatomy of your bike, common tools, look at how we make sure your bike is ready and safe to ride, and tackle the thorniest of all trail-side issues — the dreaded puncture! If getting hands on with your bike seems a little daunting, we want to provide a relaxed atmosphere where no question is silly and you can take away the skills to look after your bike properly (so that it can look after you).
Minimum age 10 years old.
