Astounding Adventures | September Newsletter

Summer doesn't really seem to have got going this year and, if you thought it's been cold, it's actually been the coolest summer since 1993!

It's not all bad news though for mountain bikers though; the longer nights herald the start of a new night riding season and an exciting opportunity to experience the trails in a whole new light (or lack of).

Later this month we'll be restarting our series of Exposure Lights demo rides where you can sample the market leading mountain bike lights whilst enjoying the very best of the Surrey Hills singletrack.

Our competition this month is from our friends at Tri-Adventure to win a pair of entries for one of their brilliant two hour adventure races. To enter you just need to be a fan our our Facebook page.

See you on the hill soon!

Mountain Bike Skills Workshops
Intensive terrain specific clinics focused on moving your skills forward rapidly

Over the last two years we have developed a series of highly successful workshops to help improvers and advanced riders alike get to grips with the techniques required to tackle some of the most tricky terrain types and conditions.

These workshops cover a wide variety of problem terrain types and, with the help of a very low coach to student ratio (4:1), we'll fill you with confidence and rapidly move your skills to the next level.

Our half-day workshops last 4 hours, cost as little as £75 per person and cover some of the most common areas for improvement including steep terrain, tricky roots, cornering, hops and drops and energy management.

September Special Offer

Book two or more skills workshops at the same time in September and get a free copy of the brilliant Mastering Mountain Bike Skills by Brian Lopes and Lee McCormack (worth £15.99).

New Night Riding Season
Exposure Lights Guided Demo Rides

Be one of the first to try the superb new 2012 Exposure light range with our guided Surrey Hills night rides.

Starting on Thursday the 22nd of September these fortnightly rides will take place in The Surrey Hills alternating between a low-light blast around Leith Hill and a night time tour of Holmbury and Pitch Hills.

The rides cost £25 per person, but this is refunded from the cost of your new Exposure light if you choose to buy it from us. Not only that, but we'll give you an extra 10% off the suggested retail price too!
