Aspire Coaching
Here at Mud, Sweat and Gears (MSG) we are committed to helping our riders reach the goals they desire, whether that is to learn how to bunny hop or to ride The Rock Garden at Hadleigh Park! MSG Aspire Coaching is now in its fourth year and has been a great success with many riders enjoying the low cost day of coaching at the venues we have available to us.
Youth Coaching
Steve is our go to coach for all our budding youth riders. Steve covers all youth, under 9 and under 12 sessions as well as running additional coaching over at Phoenix for the Phoenix Aspire youth at weekends. He has a number of dates available for coaching covering a range of areas from bike handling to more technical areas. Sessions can be made up for groups of 3 to 8 on technical terrain and up to 15 on less technical course. For more details please drop Steve an email and he will soon advise dates and costs.
Please see below for information on our MSG Aspire Youth and Women sessions. MSG Aspire days will be high quality coaching sessions at some of our best MTB venues. Riders will need to be fit and prepared to stretch themselves. It is likely that the Eastern Region Youth Inter-regional MTB team will be selected from riders that attend MSG Aspire sessions.
