WEEKEND WARRIOR
RIDER development.
timed practice between the tape
a weekend focused around personal rider development, & meeting other riders & brands
Made possible thanks to the support provided by our incredible sponsors TF Tuned, Mitchell Cycles, Propain, Melon Optics, Winch & Plummet and JB’s Grill Shack.
THE CONCEPT
The best bits of all of your favourite brands and events.
The concept is simple – to provide a fun social environment to ride your bike, whilst having the tools at your disposal to improve your mountain bike skills.
More structured than a jam and less restrictive than a race day, using a combination of all the facilities available with one aim; to improve your own lap time!
As well as the timed laps, there are coaching, mechanics and suspension workshops taking place throughout the whole weekend, so get involved, increase your knowledge and improve your timeT
- Timed practice
- Music
- Hot food & drinks
- Demo bikes
- Coaching sessions
- Tips and advice from the professionals
The whole park will be open as normal, so you will not be limited to one track like a race day!

Parents are able to add 1 x adult to a child’s ticket for £10 on the Saturday, but will not be able to participate in the coaching sessions and must arrive in a single vehicle.

OUR WONDERFUL SUPPORTERS
TF TUNED SUSPENSION
Long established on the MTB scene, who better could we ask for to offer suspension setup advice and guidance. The TF Tuned team will be available all weekend to answer your individual questions. There will also be a number of suspension servicing workshops, which will hopefully enable you, by the end, to be confident at giving your forks and shocks some interim TLC between full services.
MITCHELL CYCLES WORKSHOP
The Mitchell Cycles team will be on hand with their workshop to help ensure your bicycles are setup properly for you – from the handle bar and brake lever angles to smooth shifting and seat height! With so many moving components, it is vital that you are aware of the basics as a rider to ensure proper safety checks before every ride. As well as personalised individual advice, TMC will be providing group workshops to go over proper bike setup.
PROPAIN DEMO BIKES
WINCH & PLUMMET APPAREL & DJ
After a successful pilot last year for the final B1ke race of the season, we are pleased to announce that Winch & Plummet will be supporting all of our B1ke events in 2023. A MTB apparel business at its core, but much with so much more to offer! Go and see the guys behind the decks spinning some tunes for your entertainment, and buy a jersey or a pair of gloves whilst you are there! How many seconds does a new pair of gloves get you on your timed lap? There is only one way to find out!
JB'S GRILL SHACK SNACKS
After nothing but amazing feedback in 2022, JB’s are back to support B1ke in 2023! With a selection of burgers, dirty fries, drinks and BBQ goodness, look no further for your weekend warrior culinary needs! Maybe the only thing on this list that might actually slow you down, but we don’t mind that!
