Hi all, I'm doing the mountainbike leader training in April but want to get it off the ground in the mean time our sister school won't offer there's does anyone have one they could email me ?
Thanks Adam

Got loads of MTB leaders and an instructor in the regiment, i will ask about and see what i can get hold of mate.

That would be brilliant pete

Asked about and the come back i have is to just use a standard Risk assessment form and add any and all risks you can think of for the area you are planning to ride. Couple of mates have said they will have a dig around for previous ones they have used. I will chase them up on Monday for you mate.

Brilliant I've done them before it's just school ones are crazy and county takes 6 wks to approve a new one so a pre used one is better for some reason:)

I think the only way you will get an assessment that does not need to go to county is to get hold of one they have already approved mate.

Yeah
Another school I know won't give me theirs seems a waste having bikes and waiting on training in April to be a leader

Any way you can get the Head or a school governer to lean on them a bit? all that 'not what you know, but who you know' shit.

I asked my other half about this as she works in a school and she says that they use EVOLVE which is an online based system but you have to be a member to use the service. I assume your not a member?

She did scaff me a template Risk Assessment off that system though and I tried to attach it with little success.

Will try send it in private message.

Thanks

Cool I'll take a look risk assessments are easy but county can be a pain and don't like risky sports so if you can say you will do x like x school it speeds up the process
