Astounding Adventures | March Newsletter

Well it might not feel like it when you're struggling through gloopy mud, buffeted by the tail end of a winter storm, but soon we'll be surrounded by daffodils and warmed by beautiful spring sunshine.

So with a brand new mountain biking season just around the corner, why not sharpen up your riding technique and reboot your skills this spring? Perhaps this year it's time to GET GOOD!

See you on the hill soon!

Easter Holidays | A Great Family Day Out

The Easter break and May Bank Holidays are just a round the corner, so if you're looking for a cracking family day out, why not bring your gang along for a mountain bike skills day in The Surrey Hills.

We'll provide everything you need to get you out on the trails enjoying some off-road fun; bikes and equipment can be hired if your don't already have your own.

Sessions can last as little as two hours, but we can also keep you entertained for a whole day with a combination of basic skills training and expert guiding around some of the finest trails in the South of England.

Prices start from as little as £40.00 per person with generous discounts for larger groups.

So, to solve the problem of what to do with the kids this Easter, just call our team of experts free on 0800 756 6999 or visit our web site.

Adventure Racing | Tri-Adventure Spring Series

Following the success of the first Singletrack School sponsored Tri-Adventure Spring Series race of the year in February, the second race in the series will be held at Shere Cricket Club in Surrey on the 20th of March.

A Tri-Adventure race is a great introduction to adventure racing with most races lasting less than two hours; a far cry from the multi-day epics that you often see on TV.

As part of our sponsorship we'll be giving every competitor a 20% discount voucher off our Mountain Bike, Navigation and Adventure Racing courses.

South Downs Double | 24 Hour Challenge

Astounding Adventures mountain bike coach Jessica Weston is riding the 100 mile South Downs Way in both directions in 24 hours in aid of Cancer Research this summer and, in the process, hoping to be the first woman to do so.

Please show you support for Jessica's challenge and Cancer Research UK by sponsoring her.

Community | Love to Ride

If you live in the South-East, and you're looking for a friendly bunch of people to ride with, why not join Love to Ride?

Love to ride are a group of mountain bikers based in and around the beautiful Surrey Hills.

They ride every week on Tuesday nights all year around and also on Thursday nights in the summer. They ride mainly singletrack, but also love to ride cross country in the warmer months.

Each month they also organise an Away Day (or sometimes a whole weekend). These consist of either challenging backcountry rides or visits to trail centres in Wales, Central and Northern England and Scotland.

Community | Facebook Page

Did you know we have several very active Facebook pages where you can get up-to-the-minute news, read and leave reviews, upload your photos and start and join discussions?
