Our next Go Ride session is here at Lotts Wood, near Amersham. This is a two hour skills coaching session for ages 6+ lead by qualified British Cycling Coaches and split into ability groups. (We sometimes take younger children - depending on their ability and the number of coaches we have available - please email us - summitgoride@gmail.com to discuss). We usually aim to work on 1-2 specific skills in each session and often end the session with fun games or a team relay race. 

This session is extra-special as we are extremely privileged to have Jenny Copnall, multiple National XC Champion and XC Marathon Champion, coming along to impart her MTBing knowledge, experience and advice. Jenny is a coach these days and is really excited about coming to meet the Summit and HSS Go-Ride MTBers (whatever your chosen MTB discipline!). So have a think about specific questions you would like to ask her, or specific skills that you would like to work on and we can see if we can accommodate these into the session. Also, please wear your Summit/HHS kit if you have it as it is a great opportunity to get your jerseys signed or grab a selfie with a star! 


Please meet at 9.45am to register and be ready to ride for 10am. The session will finish at 12noon. Please make sure you bring a drink and snack, helmet and gloves. Can you also please take a few minutes before coming to check the rider’s helmet fits properly and the bike is in good working order. Riders should be using a mountain bike or a hybrid fitted with gears and treaded tyres. Ideally bikes should have flat (not SPD-type) pedals, and given the flinty nature of the wood knee pads are a good idea too if you have them. Please make sure there is no loose clothing or shoe laces that could be caught on the bike.


There is a car park here in Weedon Hill Woods (opposite Lotts Wood) which will be open. If you are dropping children off please do not obstruct the gate.
If you would like to join us (or would like more information) then simply book to confirm your attendance BY MIDDAY ON FRIDAY 9th September at the latest with a contact number for the day. WE ARE LIMITED IN NUMBERS SO REGISTER EARLY TO GUARANTEE YOUR PLACE. LATECOMERS (after 10am) MAY BE TURNED AWAY!!


The cost of the session is £5 per Summit member rider and £7 for non Summit member.  HSS riders will pay the usual £5. This cost is to help cover the cost of leasing the land from the Forestry Commission and to carry out maintenance work. Please try to bring the correct change! New/potential members should email us before the session to complete a Parental Consent Form. 


All our coaches are either qualified British Cycling L2 MTB coaches or are training to reach this qualification and are First Aid trained and fully DBS checked.
