GLØD is collaborating with one of Alta’s most experienced mountain biking course leaders, Bjørn Michaelsen! Consequently, it gives us great pleasure to invite you to a mountain biking course in Alta.

Next MTB basic course will be in June 2014.

This course will provide you as a participant an insight into the basic elements of mountain biking. We also touch on types of cycles, equipment, repairs and maintenance and training.

This course is designed to suit most people who have an interest in mountain biking, whether you have tried before or are keen to try. Even those who have ridden a lot will get a technical boost by attending this course!

Day one will start at Øytun Folkehøyskole in Alta and we will be practicing in the nearby area.

Day two and three is a two-day mountain biking trip across the Finnmarksvidda mountain plain

Participants on the mountain biking course will on Saturday and Sunday participate on a two-day trip across the Finnmarksvidda mountain plain from Soussjavri to Alta.

The package includes transport to Masi, guide across the mountain plain, sauna, dinner/breakfast and accommodation at Jotka Fjellstue (mountain lodge). The day concludes with a fantastic single track down to the Alta/Tverrelvdalen Valley.

Please advise us when you register for the course if this is something for you!

You don’t have a mountain bike and are in doubt about which type to buy?
