The story so far
Highland Bike Academy was launched in 2018 with the aim of showing riders how to get the most out of their mountain biking. For us, the focus isn’t on shaping kids into race-ready riders. What we do is teach good trail habits and life-long outdoor skills to ensure that riders can look after themselves, their bike, the environment and other trail users. All while having fun. Isn’t that why we ride our mountain bikes?
​
Our Chief of All Things MTB is Gregor and he’s been riding all over the UK and abroad in the never ending quest of finding the “perfect trail”.
