Attendees at the event will have the opportunity to enter the Kirkcaldy Cycling Festival prize draw. \nThe 3-hour session will cover three main core principles of better off-road riding:  \nReady position and dynamic movement – riding out of the saddle and moving your weight smooths the trail and allow you to ride easier over rough ground  \nCornering – steering and cornering off-road come with their own challenges – looser\, softer surfaces require a bit more thought and planning. We will cover essential approaches to allow you to corner with confidence \nFront wheel lifts – the ability to unweight and even lift your front wheel over trail features and obstacles not only look cool but makes your riding smoother and less fatiguing overall.  \nLang Toun Cycles’ Project Manager David Glover is leading these events.
