Mountain Bike Coaching & Guiding for Women in Scotland

Based at Glentress Forest just twenty five miles south of Edinburgh, Swift Trails run mountain biking courses, guided rides, bike maintenance workshops and family fun days – all designed to inspire confidence in the female biker.

We believe mountain biking should be accessible to all riders regardless of their fitness or skill levels. Whether its fun and relaxed mountain biking, riding some of the most stunning mountain bike trails The Tweed Valley has to offer or developing your riding technique and confidence with qualified British Cycling coaches, Swift Trails guarantees a positive and memorable experience.

Working with young people and introducing them to MTB is always great fun and really rewarding but logistically can take a lot of time and work to get organised. Thanks to my ‘A’ team @jessiemaymorgan and @vcki_a who made sure our day with Longridge Towers school was a successful one #MTB #mtbschools #longridgetowersschool #carpediem #mtbcoaching #mtbskills #scotland #glentress #girlswhomtb

It’s been a bit like Christmas this week. Ahead of this weekends @traildaysfestival the very, very nice folks from @specialized_uk have sent @jessiemaymorgan and myself a couple of #specializedstumpjumper to ride.

Then get signed up to our coaching workshops over the weekend! #swifttrails #mtbskills #mtbcoaching #womensmtb #specializedtraildays #glentress #traildays #traildaysfestival #scotland #mtb

Looking forward to working with the students from Longridge Towers school, Berwick today- Big question is who is going to leave our MTB games champions? Although we think @kakasincy_ home-made traybakes may be the most sought after prize! #Mtbskills #mtbcoaching #glentress #tweedvalleymtb #swifttrails

Both feeling we’ve left it a bit late but Rachael and I chose the right day to start our Heb training @durtyevents. Only 8 weeks to go to get fit enough to cover 200km over 2 days on bike, foot and canoe 😳
