Sofa to Singletrack

MTB east's free plan to get you off the sofa and riding singletrack. Two or three rides a week, timed by the clock, no bike computer needed.

The Sofa to Singletrack welcome screen on a phone: a short description, a Start your programme button and a progress line from week 1 to riding regularly
Pick your plan and go. Text size is yours to choose.
A session card on a phone: Saturday, The long one, Chatting effort, 30 minutes, a done when line, and a ride timer with Start ride timer and Log this session buttons
Every ride card says the effort, the done when line and runs the timer.

An MTB east programme

Pick a plan, ride the sessions

Every ride uses three effort words: Chatting, Breathing and Can't talk. If you can chat, you are doing it right.

The 12-week plan is three rides a week, with a real two-day version if that is all you have. Short on time? There is an 8-week plan and a 4-week Taster, each with its own finish. Entered a round under four weeks away? A short Race ready block gets you to the start line in one piece.

Juniors (about 6 to 12): eight weeks of games with a grown-up, collecting Badger and Squirrel badges along the way.
