"The only word to say is GREAT! We are from Germany and on holiday in Scotland and England. The day with Mark was Kilian's absolute highlight on our trip" — Olaf & Kilian, customers of 2017 season.
Mark started off his riding career in a quiet village riding his bike with friends in Central Scotland. Like most youths, they would build jumps out of almost anything they could get their hands on. Whether it is Dirt-jumping, Free-ride or Downhill, he does them all, and after getting hooked on racing and riding Downhill for a while, it led him to travel to the Highlands of Scotland where he later studied Adventure Tourism. Of course, being the home of Downhill for the United Kingdom, Mark found himself chasing the mountain bike dream in Lochaber, developing the knowledge and experience in order to set up Alba|Mountainbike. From working within this industry for some time now, Mark has built up his expertise in the landscapes of Scotland and gained many mountain based qualifications, thus turning his passion into his career.
