Ride Off Road Scotland: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Kevin was amazing! It was my boy’s first time on a bike, and I never thought he’d manage it — but thanks to Kevin’s patience, professionalism, and encouragement, he did. As a proud mum, I’m so grateful for such a safe, fun, and unforgettable experience! Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Went to the Dumfries and Galloway shoe and had a go as a bike rider big difference between riding off road and on road all I can say is brilliant great guys to learn off highly recommend ment to have one hour ended up with over a hour and half putting into practice what had been shown to us absolutely brilliant it’s amazing just how knackered you get highly recommend you have a go
Fantastic experience: Wonderful and very patient trainers. I got an 1 on 1 session and it was very good. Definitely worth a go. Great bikes and beautiful scenery!!
Fantastic experience: Great for outdoor fun with motorbikes and quad biking. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Friendly, encouraging chaps offering very good tuition.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic instruction taking you safely out of your comfort zone to do things you never thought you could do on a motorbike! I would highly recommend any of the RORS training days.
Fantastic experience: Ethan has had 2 days with RORS and learnt so much already. The team are full of information and always happy to help. Ethan is looking forward to more training days. Thank you again
Fantastic experience: Brilliant experience. Kevin and Jay were great instructors - they broke everything down into simple steps, and were very friendly and patient. I would highly recommend RORS.
Fantastic experience: Kev is a great choice for coaching from beginner to expert , he has good patients with kids and also older there is no age limit with his sport , even when it comes to regulars or first timers there’s always a good vibe and everyone has a big smile by the end of the sessions or day .
Thanks Gary. We've enjoyed seeing you progress and really miss your demo's ;-) would be great to see you back out on the bike soon!
Fantastic experience: 1st class coaching from experienced riders . Kevin mentored a group of relatively experienced youth enduro riders inc my son through the winter & noticeably improved all aspects of their riding . The following season these lads were all faster, smoother & technically better .
Hi Grant, after enjoying a few hours with Robbie working on technique and preparation I'm confident he will succeed and achieve his goals! Thanks to your initial commitment to the training we're now opening up our youth training days to riders as young as 4 and aiming to run more throughout the year, hope to catch you at the next one, cheers.
Fantastic experience: The coaching is really good value. Kevin is a really fast rider and it’s a pleasure to watch his demos. Generally he shows 2 or 3 demos on the core skill showing a full range of approaches starting at beginner level and progressing upwards. Kevin is very approachable patient and understanding. Iain and Jimmy give lessons from another angle which reinforces the same approach Kevin teaches but with an emphasis on finding a way that suits you as a rider to execute them and a comforting yes this one’s bloody tricky have a go attitude. Days out with RORS are like riding with friends in a safe fun structured environment. The pricing structure is pretty good especially considering track fees. Some nice venues with lots of challenging terrain.
David always a pleasure riding with you - and watching your progress! Looking forward to seeing you at the Scottish Championships this year Cheers✌️
Fantastic experience: I had a great afternoon learning to ride off road with Kevin from RORS. I am a novice rider off road and Kevin taught me some basic control skills which has given me a lot more confidence in taking my own bike off road. I was even lucky in getting 1 to 1 tuition. Not even an epic snow storm could spoil the fun. Thanks again, Andy
Thanks Andy, really nice for us to see your confidence growing throughout the day - keep up the good work and we hope to see you at the Drumlanrig Festival in June.
Fantastic experience: Great experience all round the lads were great craic and there to guide you through the obstacles step by step. Excellent way to swing my leg over a bike after 20 years break
Great to have you thanks Chris don't leave it so long next time!
Fantastic experience: First went riding with Kevin at Ride Off Road Scotland just as somewhere to ride in Scotland as access to off road is limited. I’ve been riding for 30+ years, off road, trials, enduro as well as road riding for same time, mainly self taught. Ridden up to clubman level at BEC (once! ) . Within a few minutes of riding with Kev he picked up on some technique and riding position changes that made a big difference straight away. Unlearning bad habits learned over 30 years take a while (!) but knowing the principles and trying to remember to apply them each ride makes a big difference. My riding, and probably more importantly my understanding of riding techniques has improved significantly since training with Kevin. Kevin has access to a wide range of venues and terrains for his training and experience days as well as bikes and kit if required. His teaching style is also very good in that he is supportive and encouraging to all levels of riders and not only is capable of riding very well but also explaining to others how to do it, how to gradually build up skills and technique and to build confidence. All levels of ability are catered for and supported and encouraged
Pleasure riding with you Andrew and very satisfying for us unlocking those barriers to your progression, cheers.
Fantastic experience: I did a day with Kevin and Jay this week, Kevin was great I learned a lot and managed to tackle all of the obstacles in really slippery conditions which amazed me as they looked pretty daunting, however with Kevins help I managed just fine!
Thanks Ralph, we enjoyed helping you understand and apply the techniques for the hard enduro sections, was great to see you ride them all so well by the end of the session!
Fantastic experience: Recently had a full days riding and coaching with RORS. They really were very accommodating and professional, providing great coaching. Kevin coordinated the event and everyone left with smiles on there faces. I will definitely be booking more days out with RORS team. Cheers guys
Thanks Angus! Was great to meet you, and really cool to see you improve throughout the day
Fantastic experience: After several sessions with Kevin and his team I can honesty recommend them to anyone looking to learn and improve. Kevin is a calm, knowledgable coach who has a great ability of explaining techniques and getting the most from you. Kevin has taught both my daughters to ride a manual motocross bike within the first session and has been great to see them progress so quickly. My own riding has improved greatly under his instruction. Highly recommend for anyone looking to improve their skills and confidence in a fun environment under the watchful eye of an expert coach.
Thanks Bryan, we've enjoyed riding with you and your family, it's great to see the sport bringing people together to have fun and relax, the learning bit is an added bonus!
Fantastic experience: Had a fantastic day with Kevin doing enduro cross. Learned a lot in one class, will be booking more in the future.
Thanks Stuart, was a tough day for Endurocross but you guys came on loads, well done!
Fantastic experience: We had an awesome day out, doing a refresher/beginner day with Kevin and the guys. Kevin was a great coach, the day was excellently planned and we had plenty of time to practice and refine the skills we had been taught. Everyone progressed loads, we'll definitely be back Thanks again RORS.
Cheers Ross, great day, thanks for training with us, we really enjoyed it too
Fantastic experience: This is one of the best off riding experiences I have had. Kevin and his team are great and easy to get along with. They assess each rider on their individual ability and tune their instruction to that rider’s skills. I joined a one on one session and a group session and had a great experience both times. I’ll be doing this regularly as I noticed an immediate improvement in my skills and riding flow. Couldn’t recommend this highly enough!
Thank you Michael, it was really cool to see you relax as you applied the techniques, will be good to see you put them into practice at our next session!
Fantastic experience: So as a failed short circuit racer of 20 years this Hard Enduro was all new to me! I had been horsing about here in N. Ireland for 8 or 9 months and getting slightly better but there were loads of things I couldn’t do........i.e. some of our "courses" had ditches and they were too steep to ride down into and had to be jumped. I had to hand my bike to one of the better riders in our group who had to jump his own and mine too. Not now! After a weekend with Kevin, I can jump ditches and clear logs! 10 of us from N. Ireland went over and stayed in a lodge in Lockerbie and were able to ride out the back door to the training. Kevin and his team showed us different techniques all throughout the 2 days. Even simple things like recovering your bike up a hill and being able to step off if you aren’t going to make it rather than flipping it over your head down the hill. Definitely worth a visit to improve your off-road skills as a newcomer or even experienced rider! We will be back for more. Next stop Romaniacs ;-)
Thanks John, it was a pleasure riding (and dining) with you all, hopefully we can come over to NI this year for one of the extreme events
