We are rapidly approaching winter in the Northern Hemisphere and with that, in many locations, it means riding MTB in wet, snowy and muddy conditions. If you’re not one of those enviable Danny Hart types who can ride in horrendous conditions just as good as in the dry, then you may want to take a look through these pointers from Neil Donoghue, our in-house skills coach and ex-racer himself! From adjusting your braking zones and line choice to mastering the dark art of counter-steering your mountain bike and what to look for when you’re hunting for grip, Neil’s got all this and more.⏱ Timestamps ⏱

Are you lucky enough to be able to ride the trails where you are throughout winter or do they get shut down due to the severity of the conditions or what kind of material they’re made from? Do you attend dig days to revamp them in Spring and take care of some of the ruts you may have contributed to over winter? Let us know how your MTB community deals with winter in the comments below 👇
