MTB Training Day

Following some enquiries from club members regarding MTB training for beginner/intermediate MTB'ers I have been in contact with Niall Davis from biking.ie.

Niall is an accomplished mountain bike rider who has competed at international level. He is known for running outstanding MTB events in Ireland such as the biking blitz and the gravity enduro series. He has coached us as a group previously and received nothing only the highest compliments from the groups involved.

He is offering to take a group on Sat May 25th at 10am in Ballinastoe. This would involve a 3 hr session covering core MTB skills on the trails of Ballinastoe. The group should consist of at least 4 people and max 8. Cost for the 3 hr session is €50 per person.

Niall expressed a preference for holding this session in Ballinastoe rather than Kilbranish as he feels that his knowledge of the trails in Ballinastoe will benefit the session.

Anybody interested please post here or contact me directly on o87 2i895i4.

I will make a decision on this depending on numbers on Wednesday May 7th.

God knows I should go to this because I need all the help I can get but it's the same day that the Ras goes over mount Leinster so that's where I'll be :-(
