MAD MTB will be running our ever popular beginner series onĀ 16th, 23rd, 30th April 2016. So if you can make all three dates or just one, sign up now and we will send you details of time and location closer to the date.
These spins are suitable for all levels of riders and especially aimed at people new to the sport and have been thinking of giving it a go.
As such, all spins will be at a gentle pace and will avoid the more technically difficult trails while still getting a varied choice of trails to keep it interesting.
All spins are led by experienced MAD members who will do their best to pass on any tips or tricks on improving your riding, or can do what we usually do and spend most of the day chatting about the latest bikes.
The whole series takes place in the Dublin and Wicklow mountains, never really more than an hours drive from anywhere in Dublin. Exact times and location will be emailed to you about a week before the spin.
Please note that our annual beginner spins have been replaced with our monthly Intro spin which you ca read more aboutĀ here.

My son is interested in getting involved in mountain biking. I have email you already a form for beginners. Would you please let me know when the next beginners session is starting and what would needs to have, cost etc. Also if you would know of any mountain biking clubs in the Kildare, Meath, Lucan, Leixlip, Maynooth areas that he could join
We always love to see young riders joining up but there are some rules for underage riders here: https://madmtb.com/v2_0/get-involved/underage-policy/
Intro spins are usually the last Sat or Sunday of the month.
KMBC is another Kildare based mountain biking club in that area.
