Overview
This weekly session is designed for our younger ‘Dirt Riders’ and will be run on Wednesdays throughout Term 4, 2024. More details about our rider levels can be found here.
Rider Levels / Rider Grouping System
Our new rider levels system focuses on bike setup, confidence, riding experience, and skill level, replacing the previous age-based grouping. Age will still be a guideline, but it will no longer be the main factor for group placement. More details on rider levels can be found here, along with a pictorial glossary for bike setup and relevant terms. If you’re unsure about where your rider fits, feel free to get in touch for assistance.
Session Structure
This program is ideal for newer riders, focusing on developing fundamental bike handling skills and introducing them to off-road riding. Balance bikes are welcome, but training wheels are not suitable due to uneven surfaces.
Sessions are structured to help build essential skills such as body position, balance, and riding in control. This is done through fun, group-based activities in an open area, progressing to the trail using select paths within the Walmer Day Visitor Area.
