Events and Demo days
A big thank you to everyone who attended and suppliers for making last year such a fun year for demo! Hopefully 2026 will be continuing the fun. We're quite excited for our line up of events this year with some new bikes being available to try.
2026 Events and Demo Days
7/3/26 Bosch Vs Brose Demo day
This demo day will focus on what we think are 2 of the biggest hitting motor brands available, giving you a perfect opportunity to settle the question of which you prefer.
Are you after the punchiness and powerful feeling Bosch to smash around the forest in no time at all. Or are you after the smoother, controlled feeling of the specialized that gets you round faster than you realize.
This day will take on our normal format of a guided morning ride then the included lunch and then an afternoon ride priced at £25.

17/5/26 Grizedale Funduro
It's not a demo day but we may have some demo bikes available on the Saturday, this is TBD. But if you've never raced between tape, have some young ones who want to get out and rip or have raced before and want a fun weekend. The funduro might be right up your street! The vibes were immaculate last year and we hope to continue the good times this year with the second event. Keep an eye out on instagram for more updates closer to the time for this event.
