Trail Cycle Leader Award
Trail Cycle Leaders are qualified to lead groups of up to 6 riders
throughout Scotland and the UK as outlined below:
On public highways, way-marked routes, rights-of-way on which cycles
are permitted, identifiable routes, tracks and trails with obvious navigational
features and with low to medium technical difficulty. The award covers
normal summer conditions. These routes will be 90-95% rideable and take
the group no more than 30 minutes walk by a reasonably fit person away
from a shelter with communication, and to be no more than 600 metres
in height. They will not involve cycling activity of more than one day’s
length.
The TCL consists of a two day training course, followed by a one day
assessment.
Coach : rider ratio - 1:8 (max) - Training
Coach : rider ratio - 1:4 (max) - Assessment
Holders of a Trail Cycle Leader Award may progress to the Mountain
Bike Leader award which entails a further 2 days training and one day
assessment.
