Any suggestions? I was thinking of just hiring a car and going exploring 'up-north', but a trip to Brechfa yesterday has convinced me I could better use the time to put in some skills training (I really need to be taught how to jump etc safely/properly... not much point having a beasty 6" travel FS rig and taking the chicken lines all the time! ๐Ÿ™„ )

So, all thoughts and suggestions invited from the STW massive, cheers 8)

I did a basic skills course at Llandgela in Jan and it was great. They also do a drops/jumps type one that would probably be more up your street.

We've an All Mountain 3 day course running on Sep' 4th, 5th and 6th. Every other day that week we're booked up which is good for me but doesn't really help you much. If you've any other free slots later on feel free to get in touch, bespoke courses and one to one isn't a problem.

I was thinking of getting some Ed training as I really could do with a bit of skill / backbone. Unfortunately the missus joined the STW jobless club so cash is a wee bit tight, Ed don't suppose you do reduced rates for (partners of) the unemployed ๐Ÿ˜‰ .
