Andy’s Glentress 7. A quite different story.
Following on from Allan’s heartfelt and honest Glentress 7 (GT7) story, it encouraged me to write my own. It’s a very different story despite the fact we rode together for a few laps. For months, I’ve had an issue with nerves being impinged by my neck. It means I lose feeling in my left arm […]
Mountain Bike Leadership Award. A Leaders Long Journey to Becoming a Tutor.
Mountain Bike Leadership Award. What is it and what does it mean?
