Gorrick, the mountain bike club behind the UK's popular spring cross-country series, are branching out into skills training.

They've teamed up with CTC-trained mountain bike instructors to offer a series of courses covering everything from basic technique to mastering bombholes and trail flow.

The sessions will be held at Swinley Forest, between Bracknell and Bagshot near Windsor.

A spokesman said: "As the only official providers of training courses at this popular venue, Gorrick instructors will work with small groups (max 6) and with their extensive local knowledge they will get right out onto the trails to the best sections to coach and develop your skills. They will help take your riding skills to the next level as well as help you hone your fitness."
