Question 1

I don't have my own mountain bike. Can I rent one?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can! Raw Epics will provide a rental bike and helmet at SGD$40 for the duration of the session. Please arrive 15 minutes before the start time to get properly fitted to your bike & helmet.

Question 2

I'm under 18 years of age. Can I still attend these rides?

Accepted Answer

This ride series is suited for new & beginner adult riders aged 18 years old and above. You may enquire about the kids- and youth-specific training that Raw Epics runs and whether you may be suitable for that instead.

Question 3

I have no experience with riding off-road trails. Will I be OK to join this activity?

Accepted Answer

Yes! This ride series is created for people just like you. Professionally-led, beginner-focused group rides provide a supportive, welcoming environment, without the stress and expectations (both self-imposed and imposed by others) associated with 'trying to keep up' with faster & fitter riders.

Question 4

How serious is this ride going to be?

Accepted Answer

Not serious at all! Our ride series is a community-building opportunity and safe space. We are all about keeping the pace of learning, riding, and chit-chat comfortable and attainable for all attendees - whilst maintaining the highest standards of professional conduct and safety/risk management.

Question 5

How tough are the trails we will be expected to ride on per session?

Accepted Answer

The distances on trail will be minimal, typically not exceeding 5km. The trails will be rated mostly green (suited for up to novice riders) with occasional blue-rated features (suited for up to intermediate riders). All trail features are regarded on a no-pressure, 'challenge by choice' basis.

Question 6

What attire should I wear to attend this ride?

Accepted Answer

Sturdy, covered shoes (no slippers, sandals, or open-toe footwear allowed) are mandatory. Comfortable sports attire that is suitable for Singapore's tropical climate is strongly advised. Cycling helmets are also mandatory - if you do not have one, please enquire about renting one.

Question 7

What do I do when I reach the venue?

Accepted Answer

Locate the ride host/guide (Wilson Low) - attired in Raw Epics uniform. A waiver/medical declaration/emergency contact form will be required to be filled up prior to commencement of activity. An equipment and rider check - as well as a safety briefing - is conducted once all attendees are present.

Question 8

Can I bring a friend along to accompany me?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can! They should be riding at a similar level as you (first-timer to novice level). If they are much more experienced/skilled/fitter than yourself, we may have a separate chat to them about managing their expectations for the ride, so that they do not feel left out or under-stimulated.

Question 9

Can I join in for more than one session in this ride series?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you may! There is no obligation to sign up for (paid) dedicated training or lessons that Raw Epics offers - although you will certainly progress your riding more that way.
