AIMS
The aim of the motocross try out is to introduce new riders to this exhilarating and
challenging sport in a safe environment without the initial expense of buying a bike
and safety gear.
ABOUT THE DAY
Once signed on, riders will get kitted up in full protective gear (all supplied)
before the technical briefing, which will cover the aims of the session and
introduce the riders to basic riding techniques.
At all riding locations, a small oval track will be used initially for riders to gain
confidence on the bike and to learn key motorcycle skills:
* smooth throttle control and braking
* correct cornering and body position
* starting the bike and using the clutch
* effective gear changing
Once the rider/s and the instructor feel confident that the basic skills have been
covered the rider/s will move on to a more challenging course with a variety of
turns and obstacles. Instruction is then provided very much on an individual basis
with the emphasis on safety and enjoyment.
