Rachel is going to bike park Wales in September and wanted to gain confidence to ride the green and maybe blue trails there. Today was about making sure her physical skills were all in place to allow the techniques she needed to work. Rachel really struggled previously to get he rear wheel off the floor but soon she understood why that was the case and that her overall positioning needed correcting before this could work. Soon, Rachel was riding over an obstacle that would have been impossible for her before. From there we worked on berms and fluidity on an undulating trail to get used to letting the bike move more freely beneath her. We finished with a small drop to show why the skills all applied there too. Brilliant session.
