Did you do our Express Training or our First Timers, are considering or have already done the Alumni, and still, you want to continue to challenge yourself and improve on many different skills?

The Advanced training is for you!

In our Advanced training, we created a series of exercises that will be key for you to ride up to Class 5 terrains with ease, comfort, and safety.

We will go over drills such as:

• Off-Cambers
• Emergency braking with obstacle avoidance
• Jumps and how to lift the front wheel to pass obstacles
• Deep ruts and steps perpendicular to the tracks
  
• And more!
  
  

While explaining you:

• The safety envelope this training will give you
• Clear instructions on what you can train on your own afterward to continue improving
• The principles behind these advanced maneuvers so you can master them faster
  
  

With a clear understanding of these techniques, you will be given a bigger safety net that will accompany you in many adventures to come.

You don't need to be super fit or an athlete to complete our Advanced training successfully, but you are required to have already taken Express Training or have done the First Timers with us. After all, we can't teach you to write complex sentences if you haven't yet learned your ABCs.

As far as tires are concerned, we strongly recommend a 50-50 tire, with no need for serious knobbies.

Our Advanced training values are for two full training days from 09:00 to 16:00 at our Enduro Camp facility in the Alentejo.

The value includes:

• Two lunches
• Water, and snacks during the class
• Experienced and certified Enduro instructor
  
  

Our class does NOT include:

• Sleeping arrangements, although we can recommend a hotel we work with
• Gasoline
• Dinner and breakfast, which are possible to have in the hotel as part of their service
• Bike rentals. We do not rent or arrange bikes for training at this point.
• Personal accident insurance for the training days

As with all our training, if you have any questions you would like to see answered before booking your training, send us an e-mail and we will be more than happy to help!

Classification:

This training is suited for Class 3, Class 4, and Class 5 types of terrain.

Verify the classes of terrains and rider rating system for more information.

Dates:

As long as the weather allows, we work all year round, and to make it easier, we have one scheduled group class per month.

It is also possible to open a new date on request. Dates on request opened outside our regular calendar dates will always be subject to a higher fee than regular scheduled training, which does not constitute a guarantee or promise of a private class.

Group classes are usually for up to 6 riders. If you have your own group of more than 6, please get in touch.

Check our available dates, and if there are no available dates when you want or need them, get in touch with us.

Languages:

There is nothing worse than having a class to learn something, just to realize you and your instructor cannot understand each other. We know, we have been there, both as instructors and students.

With this in mind, we decided to stick to what we know best, so our classes are hosted in both Portuguese and/or English.

Conditions:

Everything has rules, and our training and tours are no different, so let's go over what you need to know to attend this training.

• At least a 50-50 tire, designated as such by its respective manufacturer (recommend)
  
• An integral helmet that is not modular
• Protective gloves
• A suit or assorted protective gear capable of protecting your back, upper and lower limbs
• A mid-calf or full-calf boot, preferably, off-road biased
  
  

If you have any doubts about the gear or tires, let us know before you sign up for the class, as our instructors and guides have the right to refuse your participation in any of our activities, without reimbursement, if you do not present yourself with the minimum required safety gear.

As far as gas is concerned, it is important that you know that our Enduro Camp is 15 minutes away from the closest gas station and that we do not store extra gasoline on the camp. 

This means that it is your responsibility to arrive with a full tank, or enough for at least 100kms (60miles) before the start of any activity. 

The minimum quantity of fuel may vary depending on the activity, but it will always be disclosed to you beforehand.

Even though we are always flexible, due to the distance of the gas station, and out of respect for the instructors and the remaining participants, we generally cannot delay the start of any activity due to any participant's lack of fuel, the same way that there is no guarantee that any staff member will be available to escort you to the fuel station.

So get your bike fueled up, get your gear on, and come enjoy this incredible training!

During this 14-day period, no cancellation fees will be applied. After this period has expired, the cancellation conditions described below will apply, calculated based on the training date.

The requirement to make full payment at least 7 days before the training does not override the legal 14-day right of withdrawal.

Cancellation by BN If BN cancels the training, all participants will be refunded the full amount paid up to the moment of cancellation.

BN may cancel any training up to 10 days before the start date in case of an insufficient number of participants. In such cases, participants will be notified immediately, and all payments will be fully refunded.

BN reserves the right to cancel or interrupt any training if, for any reason, the safety or comfort of the participants cannot be guaranteed, including in cases of force majeure such as riots, floods, earthquakes, etc. In the event of cancellation for safety or comfort reasons, no refund will be issued, but BN will offer one alternative date only to complete the remaining part of the training. BN will not be liable for any hotel or other expenses resulting from such a cancellation.

Cancellation by the Participant If cancellation is received more than 10 days before the training: the participant must pay a cancellation fee of €10.
