I'm in E Sussex, and decided to travel as I couldn't find a good local one.

I did a day with Jedi (ukbikeskills) in Hertfordshire, drove up before Rush Hr, and had brekkie locally.

I've also just done a day with Ed Oxley (great rock) which was great, in Hebden Bridge, and overnighted in a local Hostel for £20.

That's something I can help you with, I do bespoke coaching at various venues around Kent, if you want to have a chat and discuss the options my details are on my website at www.bike-it-all.co.uk

Cheers

Boris

If you're down south, you can't go wrong with Jedi. I make a regular pilgrimage down there as do riding buddies including the wife.

How far from the M25 are you? Jedi really isn't far from you

I live in Woolwich, went to see Jedi last summer.... oh I can't explain in words what he has done to my riding!!! I've improved so much.

Best money I have ever spent and would do it again and again!

Jedi, if you can wait. It's worth it. Hour and a half or so away.

Jedi is a truly exceptionally gifted coach/teacher of bike. That is the reason he is popular and busy - it's because he really is that good.

could be an understatement! I'm from Kent and am being Jedi'd in mid-August. That was the first available date when I booked in February 😯
