Mountain Biking Skills assessment on the Quantocks





It was a stunning day on the Quantock Hills with the sun shining and the trails dusty. Perfect for the Level 4 Public Services students mountain biking assessment.

The group were tasked to plan a 16km route with minimal road. Each member took it in turns to lead a leg of the ride, showing their bike navigation skills and group management skills. When they were not leading it gave me a chance to observe their bike handling skills.

The six students that came along completed their assessments although their were clear differences in bike fitness levels within the group. This tested their patience and leadership.

The day finished with a trip back to Cannington Outdoor Centre to wash and maintain the bikes.
