Paul Coach
Enjoys the outdoors, mountain biking, walking and horse riding. Having spent more than 35 years exploring Cannock Chase there are few areas left he does not know. Paul specialises in Mountain Bike Leadership training and assessing he is a MIAS level 5 instructor, working with young people, corporate activities and some beginners courses, (he reckons he’s to long in the tooth to keep up with riders in their 30’s and 40’s). Paul rides most days on Cannock Chase or in Afan Valley, favourite places are the natural trails of North Wales and the Brecons. Paul is the director of Mountain Bike Adventures and also Webmaster.
What he most likes :- Hot sunny days in some wild place.
