On the weekend of 17th June Mountain Mayhem is back and this year Go-Outdoors has brought ALine to the party.
On Friday and Saturday on behalf of Go-Outdoors, ALine will be offering a number of courses to help competitors, make the track as easy as possible (Use less energy carry more speed) and we will also be running some short fun skill progression sessions. See further descriptions and book in below.
FRIDAY - ON THE TRACK
These sessions are now full - Places available on the Saturday skill development sessions...Scroll down.
Available for teams of 4-8 riders
Minimum effort for maximum effect. On a 24hour race, economy of motion will be a critical factor. On Friday 17th June we have 6x 1 hour slots available for riders for book in. On these sessions ALine will ride with teams and work through a series of exercises to help riders reduce their energy “leak” and therefore go faster for longer.
Ride smart, save energy, go further, go faster.
Slots - 4pm – 5pm (Full), 5pm – 6pm (Full), 6pm - 7pm (Full), 7pm - 8pm (Full).
There is no formal cost for these sessions but we will be collecting for Mountain Rescue so please feel free to make a donation.
Just to confirm, you will be booking on behalf of your team with a minimum of 4 riders present for the allotted time slot
SATURDAY - OFF THE TRACK
On the Saturday we will be running a number of fun skill specific sessions. Check out the menu and times below. These sessions are for individuals to book in to and are limited to 8 places.
3 PRINCIPLES OF CORNERING WHICH WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
Cornering is the greatest skill in mountain biking. Ask any pro rider what they want to improve and cornering is always right up there. On this hour session we will work through a cornering progression and instil not just what to practice but how to practice. Riders can continue to develop months after this session.
Time slots 11am-12pm, 2pm-3pm, 4pm-5pm.
LEARN TO WHEELIE IN 20 MINS
The wheelie is great fun to practice and can make the most mundane fire road climb a skill building exercise. Practicing wheelies can improve your fine brake control and your balance. Come out with ALine and we will show you how to practice. Riders must be on flat pedals or able to pedal unclipped.
12pm - 12.20pm, 3pm - 3.20pm, 5pm - 5.20pm
CONCENTRATED PURPOSEFUL PRACTICE - “MESSING ABOUT”
Why "messing about" isn’t really "messing about" and how it could transform your riding. Come out with ALine and we will show you how and give you some Fundamental techniques to take away and practice. No matter how good you are there is always more to do!
12.30pm - 1.15pm, 3.20pm - 4pm, 5.20pm - 6pm.
If you don't manage to book in don't worry, come over and have a chat, we will be at the main Go-Outdoors tent.
See you all there hopefully!
