Desert Rose Support Two Wheels for Life

On a fairly damp Friday morning in May, Desert Rose hosted a day’s off road riding instruction that had been donated to the motorcycle/healthcare charity Two Wheels for Life at a charity auction at the Malle Mile. Money raised through the auction will support Two Wheels for Life fund raising efforts and help provide much needed healthcare to some of Africa’s remotest communities. The successful bidders came down to East Sussex and it is fair to say they threw themselves into the exercises with enthusiasm. Huge thanks to the lads for supporting such a worthwhile charity.
TWfL and their sister organisation Riders for Health provide off road motorcycles and support for health workers in several African countries. Using small capacity, off road motorcycles means that health workers can reach more communities, more effectively to deliver the healthcare that is needed. Riders for Health was established over 30 years ago. Find out more about how Two Wheels for Life supports Riders for Health and programmes in Africa, visit the TWfL website here

Stage 1 in Autumn Sunshine

Who would have thought we would have to search out some shade in Mid September. Our popular Stage 1 course saw a dozen riders join us in the Autumn Sunshine down in East Sussex. Working through the foundations of off road riding techniques we covered bike handling, body positioning, braking techniques and we tackled ascents and descents. Everyone threw themselves at the exercises enthusiastically and there were smiles all round.

Ladies Day in the Sunshine!

Early September saw a small group join us on a ladies only day, for a day of off road riding at our East Sussex venue. We were lucky enough to have some sunshine and even had to seek the shade of the trees for a while. With the coaching based on our Stage 1 syllabus, the ladies had to get to grips with body positioning and bike handling techniques, learnt the importance of clutch control, tackled braking exercises, took on a couple of hills and of course some dreaded ruts. As the group were progressing so well, we even threw in some on bike yoga, helping them improve their balance and bike handling. The girls all rose the challenges we posed and came away more confident riders.

Midweek Enduro Practice Sessions

As the summer draws to an end we have put on a few midweek, afternoon/evening enduro practice sessions. With an all new 2 1/2 mile lap, taking in some tight single track and faster flowing twisty sections through the fields, along with 2 or 3 “special sections” there was something to challenge everyone.
