Go Mountain Bike (GoMTB) is for anyone who wants to develop their skills and experience in off-road riding, from those learning basic bike handling skills to riding long technical routes with advanced features.

Who is GoMTB for?

GoMTB is a fantastic skills development scheme for younger riders, and it can also benefit mature riders or anyone who wants to develop their off-road riding skills; from those learning basic bike handling skills to those riding longer technical routes with advanced features.

How does it work?

There are four themes to the award and 5 levels within each theme for all levels of experience, from novice to expert. You can tailor the course to focus on skills that you're most interested in.

The themes are:

  • riding skills
  • sharing the outdoors
  • first aid
  • being independent and self-supporting

Which will teach you to:

  • develop an awareness of safety
  • develop basic mountain bike skills
  • develop specific mountain bike skills
  • ride safely with concern for other users and the environment
  • be suitably clothed and equipped for the situation
  • become independent and continue to mountain bike as a sustainable and healthy activity.

GoMTB taster sessions
