Keep up with the kids - lunchtime MTB skills clinic - Cornering

Enhance your mountain biking skills with FitlikeMTB's lunchtime coaching sessions at Banchory Woodland Trails on November 16, 2026. Led by British Cycling-accredited MTB Gravity coach Mandy Prowse, these focused training sessions are perfect for riders looking to improve their trail confidence and technique during a busy workday.
The session takes place from 11:45 am to 1 pm in the picturesque Banchory Woodland Trails, offering participants the chance to refine their skills amidst natural beauty. Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate rider aiming to progress, Mandy's tailored approach ensures that every participant feels supported and challenged at just the right level.
Each session costs £12 and includes hands-on coaching on techniques such as braking control, cornering, and body positioning. Participants are encouraged to bring their own bikes in good working order, along with a helmet, gloves, appropriate clothing for the weather, and essential repair gear like spare inner tubes or tubeless plugs. Knee pads are recommended but not mandatory.
Spaces are limited to eight riders per session, so be sure to book early to secure your spot. The meeting point is at Banchory Woodland Trails car park where you'll join fellow enthusiasts ready to learn and grow together under Mandy's guidance.
