ADVENTURE BIKE RIDES
There’s no doubt one of the biggest challenges for many toying with the idea of getting into off-road life comes in the shape of one huge psychological hurdle. The perception of off-roading being just too damned difficult, likely to end in tears or physical harm, as well as the worry of any bike damage, or just getting filthy dirty or soaking wet, stops plenty from giving the idea any further consideration.
It’s true life can get a bit challenging at times, and setbacks do occur. But as long as you can start off-road life gently, and see enough of the better side of it first, you’ll be able to put the hiccups in progress and happiness into a much more realistic context. And that’s where Lincolnshire-based company Adventure Bike Rides can help by giving you a very easy and highly encouraging start to it all.
To see exactly what’s on offer, editor Mikko and I had a go at what the firm calls The Blue Run, a gentle outing aimed squarely at the beginner.
