Astounding Adventures | October Newsletter

Our September newsletter was more than a little pessimistic about this summer's weather, but we're certainly not complaining about the current Indian Summer. Long may it continue!

Inspired by the hot spell, we've been working hard this week adding brand new course dates to our web site to take us right up to the middle of next summer; definitely going from glass half empty to glass half full.

We've also expanded our North Yorkshire offering adding all of our popular mountain bike skills workshops to our Dalby Forest programme.

This Autumn, with the help of Exposure, our new series of Exposure Lights demo rides are now completely free to join and, if you buy your new Exposure light from us on the night, you'll get a whopping 15% discount off the retail price!

Finally our competition this month is to win a fantastic box full of waterproofing goodies from our partners at Grangers. To enter you just need to become a fan of our Facebook page.

See you on the hill soon!

Adventure Racing
Tri-Adventure Autumn 2012 Race Series

The second Tri-Adventure Race of the autumn series is coming up soon on the 16th of October.

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

The Autumn series, based at Albury Cricket Club in the heart of the North Downs, will take place on the following dates:

  • Sunday 18th of September
  • Sunday 16th October
  • Sunday 20th November

Don't worry if you haven't got your own bike, you can hire a bike for the race from as little as £20.00.
