Mountain Bike event Pitmedden Forest Perthshire, Tayside Scotland 22nd April 2012
Scotland
has a fantastic reputation for mountain biking and has been accredited the class
of ‘Global Superstar’ by the International Mountain Biking Association (IMBA)
thanks to the beautiful natural landscapes and investment in top quality built
facilities. Mountain Biking in Scotland is big business and is
already worth £139 million pounds to the Scottish economy with growth expected
to be 30% over the next five years.
Slap bang
in the middle of Scotland’s MTB destinations and on the doorstep of some truly epic riding is Pitmedden
Forest. Straddling the Perthshire/Fife Border, near Newburgh it is one of
Scotland’s hidden gems when it comes to natural trail riding and due to its
location you’ll find more quality trails here than
midges!
Whether you race hard or are less competitive, the day will be relaxed, with the focus on just having fun on the
trails. There will be good music and top notch local caterers on
site, and it is a family friendly event with free skills training for kids and
adults alike. All of the companies that will be used at Muckmedden
are from the local community, from skills coaches and bike repair to waste
disposal.
