The concept of MTBSkills - The Clive Forth Mountain Bike Academy was formed many years ago.

Clive started racing mountain bikes in 1987, a time when racers outweighed the recreational rider.

The seed was planted many years ago but the sport (and Clive) both needed time to mature.

Competing at an international level and for some prestigious teams he has gained a unique insight into the industry.  The success of the teams he has been involved in and the riders he has coached were to him proof enough that it was time to share his knowledge with a wider audience.  With his diverse CV he stands out as being a key authority on the subject.

Now a published author with his second book underway he has combined his established MTBSkills business with the newly founded Mountain Bike Academy.
