Visitors at the ABR festival and Heritage Sprint event will get the chance to sample motorcycle trail riding and benefit from the expert tuition of Phoenix Trails coaches for free – all included in the event ticket price.

Phoenix Trails normally offers trail riding coaching at its iconic UK location in Salisbury Plain, the Peak District, the West Pennines and Kent at a cost of £299 for a full day, but the team also attends two selected summer events where visitors can have a free taster session to discover the joys of riding motorcycles on legal green lanes. The sessions are only offered at the ABR festival and Heritage Sprint event, so this is a rare chance to get a free taste of trail riding.

The taster sessions offer an introduction into trail riding for anyone with a valid motorcycle licence, covering the basic skills needed to control motorcycles on loose surfaces that you would normally encounter on a trail ride. In addition, the team will be on hand to discuss all aspects of trail riding, from where you are allowed to ride to essential kit and bike considerations. It’s the easiest way to dip your toe into this fantastic way of exploring the path less travelled.

At the Heritage Sprint event, Phoenix is also teaming up with Claire Jones and holding workshops on the psychology of riding. This is another freebie for event ticket holders, and offers great insights into how to overcome psychological barriers to your riding.

Phoenix Trails free trail riding tasters take place at the ABR festival at Ragley Hall, Warwickshire, on 26–28 June, and Heritage Sprint at Betteshanger Park, Kent, on 8–9 August.
