About the Business
In the late 1980s, Mark Willmore had talks with the Forestry Commission about bringing mountain biking onto forestry commission land at Coed Y Brenin. Willmore ran the first trail center at Coed-y-Brenin with his then French business partner Sophie Rebord. Mark and Sophie brought the French MBK brand of MTB to Wales after seeing the potential of this then fledgling sport in the French ski resorts and it was there that the trial centre as we know it was born. Dafydd Davis took up the baton the following season as Mark went back to France with Sophie as a Ski instructor. An opportunity missed maybe but Marks involvement in cycling wouldn't end there.
Many years later through Marks mechanical role in Motorcycle racing he met TT star Ben Wylie, through their mutual interest in cycling Ben and Mark struck up a friendship that in late 2009 resulted in the pair starting Brenin Bikes in Market Drayton Shropshire, using the Brenin name as homage to Marks earlier foray into the cycling world.
