Some belated feedback on this course, to give a slightly different perspective. I did it back in May 2012 and enjoyed the weekend enormously at the time: Ed managed a group of riders with broad-ranging abilities very well, working away at the principles with those who took a little longer while adding on bits for those whose skills were more advanced and got the hang of things more quickly. Overall a great experience, and I spent the months afterwards putting it all into practice, however personal circumstances have prevented much – if any – riding during 2013 until this week. It’s testament to Ed that the skills he imparted over a year ago came flooding back straight away, helping me ride a descent I’ve not tackled in nearly two years more quickly and confidently than ever before. Treat yourself: you can’t help but benefit.

Having just had a weekend on the flow course at lee and cragg quarry i’ve come away from it with so much more than i ever thought i could. From the first minute Ed was getting the measure of us and pitched the course at the right level for the group in a really laid back and non patronising manner. His style of teaching helped keep a great atmosphere within the group and everyone seemed to take on board his methods quite quickly as the way he explained and demonstrated was spot on.
I was hoping more than anything to improve my cornering from this course but that was only a small part of what i learnt, adjustments to pretty much every aspect of my riding have taken place over the two days making me faster, smoother and more confident, the course has been my best riding investment for quite some time and has made more difference to my riding than any component upgrade could ever do.
Cheers Ed, thanks for a very rewarding weekend.

I went to do ‘The Flow’ and flew.

Ed upgraded my MTB operating system to the latest and greatest version, then after a reboot the trail looked and felt different, now it’s smoother, faster, easier and makes perfect, flowing sense.

Ed’s a great teacher …if you’re willing to challenge what you think you know and want to improve your riding massively, do this course; you’ll reap the rewards on the singletrack, the steep, the tech and the gnar!

I signed up for “The Flow” because I wanted to progress from battering along the trail. Before I attended the course, I would have described myself as a pretty competent wheels on the ground rider. Following a good day of coaching with Ed, it was apparent that even wheels on the ground is not about riding in just 2 dimensions. I’ve seen the wonder of 3D and it is the future!
