Does anyone have any experiance of anyone near to Bristol?
I would go to Jedi if he were closer, and failing finding some one closer, I'll probably still travel.
Cheers
Depends what you want to learn.
It'd be worth the trip to Herts; I've done much longer journeys for a few hours ride.

MTB skilss
and speling 
Ok, so I'm a pretty competent rider, however a lot of my riding has been on long, bridal way type rides or very slow, technical descents so I'm looking to get some more speed into my riding, get a bit more air (so I'm hitting things faster with more confidence) using berms properly, taking dropins and not rolling everything.
Dooes that make sense?
Rob Hilton - yeah ok.....
If you're willing to cross the bridge into Wales, I'll teach ya'. I mean, how hard can it be? 😀
Bristol Mountain Biking cllub was running one this weekend.
If SaxonRiders offer doesn't tempt you 😉 but you do make it over the bridge then - www.forestfreeride.co.uk
Make the trip to Jedi, it's 100% worth it.
I've been twice now and will go again when I am ready to step up another level in my riding.
Go and see Jedi.He will get you doing stuff you never thought possible, and he is passionate and cares about his customers you get the best possible learning experience.
What toys says worth the drive 🙂
Another +1 for Jedi. Took a while for all the stuff he taught to sink in but now it has and I'm riding so much better.
I went to Woburn from Bristol with 2 others for a Jedi lesson and it was well worth it.
Having said that I wish there was someone of a similar standard around the Mendips, Quantocks or South Wales.
In order to balance the jedi commendations (and I appreciate he throws in a bit of lightsabre practice), I will second still_s8tannorm's suggestion of

I read some of the appreciation letters on Forestfreeride, and one of the girls wrote:
'I've been jumping sleeping policemen & shopping trolley-ing anything I can on my way to work all week'
Can anyone enlighten me to what 'shopping trolley-ing' is?
Hop in your car and go to Jedi.
Worth every penny 🙂

The action you'd use to push a shopping trolley across a carpark is very much like the action used to to lift your front wheel onto or over something, eg log, drainage ditch, etc 😉
^? You must push your shopping trolley in a strange manor 😉

And coach Clive got his bikes stolen 🙄

Shocking morning, here in Bristol, woke up to find an empty garage, 3 bikes stolen including my lovely (and rare) Transition Bandit. Green frame, Fox fork, Gravity dropper etc etc. Also robbed from the garage was an xs Giant Anthem xc and a Trek Fuel. Please keep you eye out folks. That's just taken the edge off a fantastic weekend teaching members of the Bristol Mountain Bike Club.

I should point out Geoff that your shopping trolley is empty at the time and you're letting go of it ... imagine you can't be arsed walking it back to the trolley park or perhaps you were trying to use it to skittle an old dear 😉
Jedi! I've travelled down a few times from Cheltenham and well worth it.
thanks for the recommend guys 🙂
the trolley huck was something we used to describes hucks/drops back in the day. same movement as unweighting the front end to stop lifting/pulling
Trekster - yeah just seen on the forum. Bloody shame there is a lot of it about.
I've been to forestfreeride and Jedi/ ukbikeskills.
My recommendation would be Jedi.
kind words slowrider
