MTB Coaching & Clinics

Learning is fun! And private coaching is a great way to learn. You might be a racer looking to climb the results sheet or a beginner learning the ropes - our private sessions are tailored to you, your learning style and your goals. Private coaching sessions can be either one on one or in a small group with your mates.

The Local Bike Coach also runs regular MTB skills clinics that are great building blocks in becoming a better rider. We run sessions on Jump skills, Cornering, MTB for Beginners and more. Subscribe to our list to be the first to find out about upcoming clinics and programs.
