This one day course (9.30am till around 5.30pm) trains and confirms competency to inspect cycle and MTB trails.We have been involved with the ‘management’ of MTB & Cycle trails for well over 20 years now, working with both the private and public sectors as well as managing our own private Skills Areas. We also assisted to develop and delivered the CTC (now Cycling UK) program of trail inspection courses for the Forestry Commission in England and Wales. This unique experience give us a great pool of experience to include in our trail inspection courses.
Key sections covered on this course include:
• Understanding of the Why, the When and the How of cycle trail inspection.
• An overview of cycle trail construction and remedial actions.
• Developing a safe system of work for cycle trail inspections.
• Practical ridden and walked trail inspections.
This course trains and confirms competency to inspect cycle and MTB trails.
