🚵‍♂️ FOD Flow Part 2 – Advanced Trail Skills 🚵‍♂️

What a brilliant session with Chris and Andy today at WyeMTB.

Today’s coaching session focused on developing advanced trail techniques while also revisiting some of the fundamental skills that underpin confident, fast, and controlled riding. As always, it’s amazing how often the biggest improvements come from refining the basics.

We worked on:
✅ Advanced cornering techniques
✅ Dynamic body position and bike-body separation
✅ Pumping and generating speed from the trail
✅ Line choice and trail reading
✅ Technical descents
✅ Revisiting braking and body position fundamentals

One phrase that kept coming up throughout the session…

💃 “Hips don’t lie!” 💃

Your hips play a huge role in creating grip, balance, and control on the trail. Get them moving in the right direction and the bike tends to follow.

Great effort from both riders, with some huge improvements as the morning progressed. It’s always rewarding to see riders leave with more confidence and a better understanding of why techniques work, not just how to do them.

Looking to take your riding beyond the basics and ride upper Red and Black graded trails with more confidence? FOD Flow Part 2 is designed exactly for that progression.

It was brilliant listening to their reasons for riding — mental health, being social, fitness, and pushing themselves both mentally and physically.

It was also a real eye-opener hearing from some of the pioneers of the Dyfi Valley. We still remember when the original Mach 1 and Mach 2 trails opened.

If we didn’t live in the Wye Valley, we would 100% have settled in Corris.

New Blog ☀️🚵‍♂️ Get Ready for Your Best Summer on the Bike Yet!

Summer is nearly here, and now’s the perfect time to get your bike — and your riding — ready for the adventures ahead.

🔧 Visit your local bike shop
A professional bike service can completely transform the way your bike rides. Fresh brakes, smooth gears, and a well-maintained bike mean more confidence, more comfort, and more fun on the trail

🛠️ Give your suspension some love
A fork and shock service can make a huge difference on technical terrain. Here in the Forest of Dean, suspension works hard all year round, and a fresh setup means better grip, comfort, and control.

🚵 Invest in your skills
Mountain bike coaching isn’t just for beginners — it’s about riding smoother, safer, and with more confidence. Small improvements in braking, cornering, and body position can completely transform your riding experience.

At WyeMTB Coaching & Guiding, we help riders of all abilities build confidence and progress their skills on real trails throughout the Forest of Dean.
