About Bear Mountain Biking

Sam Bear

I am a British Cycling Level Mountain Bike Leader, hold a current Outdoor First Aid qualification, and am insured through British Cycling to lead mountain bike rides.

I also, importantly, love cycling, and mountain biking in particular. I am lucky enough to call the Lake District home, and although there are all sorts of amazing ways to enjoy this beautiful part of the world, my absolute favourite is riding my bike.

Mountain biking being the amazing experience that it is makes it a pleasure to share with others. Whether it’s introducing new riders to a new sport, helping a nervous rider build their confidence, taking experienced riders on a new route, or watching someone with trail centre experience conquer a natural mountain bridleway, the thrill for me is seeing riders having a good time.
