We hired bikes from Pedal Progression and the lads were really helpful and enthusiastic – they had a great bike for my son which was perfect for the trail but easy for a young lad to handle. Great value for money.

After 23 years of mountain biking, I thought coaching was for ‘someone else’, but my wife and kids got me a session for my birthday, so I had no choice! My instructor changed the way that I cornered, dropped and jumped – I’ve never been so confident on a bike.

Summary: expert, down to earth coaching. If you have an area of your riding you’re struggling to improve or just want to take your riding to the next level, these guys will be more than able to up your game.

I cannot recommend these guys highly enough, the proof of coaching is only ever in the outcomes, and I am a much better MTB rider now.

The skills and techniques for mountain biking that Matt has just shown me will revolutionise both my speed and enjoyment of this sport! I can’t wait to go back in 6 months to show them my new pace.

Matt gave me constant feedback throughout the whole day in a professional but relaxed way, nothing was too much trouble and I felt completely at ease to ask any questions I had. I cannot rate the day, the environment and most of all the tuition highly enough.

“We’re not mountain bikers but we all had a fantastic hour on the trails this morning. I now understand why its such a popular sport”

“This was the first time for us riding trails. As adults we have come away making plans for it again. The kids (7 and 9) had their highs and lows during the couple of hours, but after an hour reflection and eating something have both agreds on definitely doing it again. Pedal Progression were professional, well organised, really friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!!”

“We had a wonderful few hours of riding around Aston Court which is a stunning location in itself. Pedal Progression provided an elegant on-line booking service; excellent bikes with first rate guidance on how to use them; insightful advice about suitable routes which reflected our experience; and were generally wonderful.”

“My eldest son aged 13 has just had a one-to-one session with Phil. In 2 hours he learnt so much about technique – he’s super chuffed and raring to get out again to practice. Excellent teacher and would highly recommend them. They even called this morning to check what He wanted to get out of today. Brilliant all round.”
