The course is the brainchild of Earthwomble owner, Mark, who is passionate about looking after the unique and beautiful landscape that we work and play in and is delivered using the principles of the Leave No Trace Centre For Outdoor Ethics, of which Mark is a Certified Trainer. The day will start with an indoor session where we will cover the following topics.

Day 2

We will meet at a local cafe where we can grab a pre ride coffee and then we will sit down with a map and its over to you to plan the route for the day. You will be given a series of coordinates and its up to you to how we get between them, taking into consideration what you learnt on day 1. Once the route has been planned and I'm happy with it, we wil head out and ride it. Along the way we will stop to discuss the various topics we covered on day 1 and tie everything together.
