These schools are entirely focused on off-road and dirt road skills for Adventure and Dual Sport riders. We aim to create a safe and fun low-pressure learning process, with a focus on giving you the techniques to develop over time to continually increase your skills. We split our schools into two levels: Intermediate and Advanced. This is to do our best to keep the groups moving at a similar pace each day, so that each group has similar goals.
We also have a new session for repeat customers: The Next Chapter

These clinics are dirt bike skills clinics (or 'enduro/trail' clinics) suited to riders of dirt bikes / moto x / cross country / trail / enduro bikes - whatever you want to call them, this is the course. Over the last few years we have developed a great one day course to suit all level of riders.
The focus of the group clinics are to teach balance, control and traction - the three most important aspects of riding off road. Once these three factors are in place it is possible to ride smoother, more efficiently and faster! These clinics are limited to 10 riders per day.
The clinics are flexible according to client’s needs. Some of the skills covered include:
* Setting up your bike correctly for off road
* Correct, strong and efficient riding positions
* Cornering techniques for traction and speed
* Drills to boost clutch, throttle and brake control as well as balance and timing.
* Addressing trail obstacles like logs, rocks, ruts and tree roots,
* Climbing and descending hills safely and more effectively.
Contact us to get on the list for future clinics.
Chris Birch Coaching clinics are aimed at improving off road riding skills. Chris focuses on helping his clients get the most out of their riding – whether this is to improve performance and placing in competition, to beat their mates, or simply to get the most enjoyment from the weekend’s riding. Chris has spent his whole life riding and racing motorbikes in many disciplines and has picked up tips, tricks, shortcuts and handy hints that you only get from experience. When you are being coached by Chris, it’s a fantastic opportunity to pick his brains about any riding or bike set up problems you have.
We offer a variety of enduro bike / dirt bike coaching options, and adventure bike coaching options.
Please contact us to be kept informed of upcoming coaching sessions. Our clinics are currently fully booked but we are adding to our 2026 waitlist.
