For anyone considering a techniques course then I can highly recommend Flattyres courses!!! They are excellent value for money and the whole day is packed with techniques and tips!......A great day with tons of fun with lots to go away with and practise! For anyone who wants some extra practical skills that you can apply on your next ride this course is a definite must! Nicky

As a mountain bike owner of just over 2 years I'm a relative novice, without technical skills but managed to get round most mountain bike trails and off road routes with sheer determination and at times trepidation. Following from my Trail Techniques course I found that the simplest tips that Colin gave have really made a massive difference in making trails easier to navigate. I am also much more confident on trails, in particular corners, and try to practice certain techniques on my own with further improvement. Courses are run professionally and with the small course number all skill levels have some 1:1 attention. Pauline Gallagher

I can recommend flat tyres 'Trail Techniques' course, as an MTBer with a number of years experience but fading courage for downhill descents, it enabled me to improve my riding style and confidence and pick up some new skills. Colin's stepped approach to learning and logical progression of techniques enabled the group to develop and his one on one feedback gave me the ability to improve my bike handling. Dr Diane Spivey

We leaned all aspects of Mountain Biking, which we both found extremely informative and benefited us in events we had coming up. A professional service offered and the teacher had great patience with some people who struggled with a couple of things. Overall, a really enjoyable day, learned allot, and would recommend to anyone! Steve Roberts

My first real eureka moment was when Col showed me how to slalom at speed. It took me a while to get there, but Col was patient and persevered until I eventually cracked it. Now, I tackle singletrack at twice the speed that I used to and feel a lot more confident whilst doing it.
