About CTC Off Road Training Level 3

LEVEL THREE - Advanced off road skills involving advanced skills and tackling harder terrain, obstacles, emergency procedures, preparation for extreme riding and night riding

All sessions will include the 'M test Bike Check', braking skills, pedalling, gear changes and body positioning, the latter being very important, mainly because the gradients are more extreme bearing in mind that the basic principal of the body changes the weight distribution and therefore the pivot point of the ensemble changes.

 Core Skills for Level 3 include:-

Body position for more grip
Body position for drop offs and bomb holes
Track stands
Steep ascents/descents in slippery conditions
Steep long ascents
Drop offs
Bunny hopping
Technical single track
Clothing

 NB. For Individual 1:1 Tuition the methods used are tailor made to your individual needs although the same principles will apply vs. activities for a group to achieve the same objectives. Also we take as much or as little time as any one individual needs., there are no maximums as everyone is different.
