Clark & Kent Contractors were selected to undertake the design and build of a new section of the mountain bike course at Conlig. The facility will be primarily a 'Go Mountain Bike' MTB Instructors coaching area (CyclingScotland – Mountain Biking Proficiency Award).It will not be a public skills area.
The Detailed brief we followed was as follows:
The facility should be capable of coaching a new rider through all of the Go Mountain Bike skills level 1 & 2 along with basic riding and core skills.
Core skills include balance, safe effective braking, gears, body position, weight shift, cornering, bunny hops, pumping, track stands, manuals, front and rear wheel lifts, energy management etc.
