The course introduces skills required for the progressive beginner to navigate smoothly around red graded trails at purpose built cycle centres and build your overall confidence on a bike. The course is based around a number of coaching zones at Pedalabikeaway, to give you the clients the best opportunity to try new skills and improve on old tricks.

Topics covered during the course include:
- Cornering including berms
- Weight shift techniques

FOD Flow is the second step of our comprehensive coaching pathway. It is a progressive structure for you, the rider, to develop from a complete beginner to exhibiting hardcore skills on your mountain bike! Already been on this course? Then have a look at to FOD Flow: Part Two to further progress your mountain biking skills.

Decided to give this course a go to help me get back into mountain biking. As an instructor Dave had a really reassuring style. He was able to make it feel relaxed whilst still pushing you. I felt so much more confident afterwards. Course obviously has a structure but has flexibility to look at any other areas that might be relevant which I found really beneficial.
Without a doubt I shall attend a logical progression course once the skills learned here have been embedded.
I cant recommend these guys enough!

This course was fantastic for building my confidence. I started the day quite nervous, i couldnt carry any speed around corners or over roots, but Joe was brilliant, he explained the techniques really well, and at the end of the day i could do little drops. My speed and technique have improved loads by practicing what i learned. Awesome day and a great group..Thanks Joe i’ve booked FOD flow 2 already.
