Intermediate trials days are designed for riders who have some off-road or trials experience and want to improve their skills on both electric and petrol trials bikes. You’ll receive expert coaching through practical exercises and marked obstacle sections tailored to your level. The sessions offer a fun, supportive environment to develop your technique and confidence on the bike.
After signing in, you’ll be provided with full riding gear including boots, helmet, gloves, and trials clothing. A brief safety video will introduce key points before you meet your instructor and get assigned a bike suited to your experience. Initial training starts on flat terrain to focus on bike control and comfort.
As the day progresses, you will tackle “sections” marked with coloured flags, representing obstacles that help improve balance, clutch use, and throttle control. The instructor adjusts the challenges to match the group’s skill level, ensuring gradual development. Full-day participants enjoy two hours of morning riding, followed by a hot homemade lunch, then another two-hour afternoon session capped off with refreshments.
You can choose from a range of electric trials bikes, some with clutch and gearbox and others simpler for ease of use, or traditional petrol bikes requiring kick-start and clutch skills. The electric bikes feature adjustable power settings that evolve as your ability improves, making this suitable for riders with different backgrounds.
The venue is set in Whitewell, a village within the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Lancashire. The location provides a mix of open fields and natural terrain, ideal for creating a variety of trials sections that suit different skill levels.
Whitewell’s rural setting offers a calm and safe environment for focused riding practice. It is easily reachable by car and offers scenic views, helping create a relaxed atmosphere for learning while maintaining safety and control.
Participants should already have some experience riding on or off-road, including basic trials skills. These sessions are not intended for complete beginners but for those looking to build on what they already know.
A reasonable level of fitness is helpful since trials riding requires balance, coordination, and physical effort. Minors must have a parent or guardian present on site throughout the session for safety.
Instruction is delivered by knowledgeable trainers who tailor coaching to each rider’s individual needs, encouraging steady improvement and confidence. The variety of modern electric and petrol trials bikes ensures that riders can choose the right machine to suit their skills and preferences.
The sessions combine expert tuition with a friendly atmosphere, allowing riders to enjoy a full day of riding alongside others who share their interest. Provision of hot meals and refreshments keeps energy levels up, making the experience comfortable and rewarding.
