This weekend sees the PMBA Enduro Series event return to Kirroughtree with the amazing addition of the Hope Academy offering coaching to the future talent of the sport we all love.

Galloway Hillbillies bike club is very pleased to be able to help Kev from PMBA set up this event.

As you will know there is a huge amount of work goes on behind the scenes to get everything in place for this amazing event.

PMBA 2023 sees the return of some old stages that have been improved and some brand new stages that we know will put a huge smile on the faces of the hundreds of competitors taking part from all over the country.

We have people from as young as 5 signed up for the hope academy and we won't mention the other end of the age spectrum who have entered the full event.

The numbers taking part is testament to the type of riding the majority of people are looking for at our trail centers.

We would welcome some feedback from you whether you are a competitor or part of the support team or just somebody who has stumbled across this event.

Have a great weekend.

Galloway Hillbillies Bike Club.

Our Skill sessions are back for the final round of PMBA Enduro Series Kirroughtree!

This round we've decided to switch up how the sessions run....

Saturday Sessions will cost £5 for a wrist band payable on the day and you will be able to join as many sessions as you like, Sessions will run on a first come first served basis at 10am, 11am, 12pm, 2pm, 3pm, 4pm and will be split into 2 groups.. beginner/intermediate and advanced.

We will be joined by TrailCoach and Galloway Hillbillies Bike Club

At 5pm we will have our Circle of Doom game where everyone can take part for free for a chance to win some F12 pedals!

Sunday Trail Sessions are aimed at riders aged 7 - 12 years old. We will be looking at line choices and trail skills. These sessions are perfect for any of the under 10's racers who are hoping to take part in the 3 stage next year or any current 3 stage riders who would like some hints and tips to place better next year.

All children will need to be accompanied by an adult and we will meet at the start of Stage 4 (which has been split from stage 1 to avoid racing a connecting hill) this part of the track is off piste... if we have heavy rain over the weekend we will change to Stage 1, which can be reached easily from stage 4
