Overview

This 2-day SHRED Rider program is designed to help kids develop the fundamental skills of mountain biking. The program focuses on connecting with country at  Dju Wang Baring  through activities that develop fundamental MTB skills. Each session is carefully structured to ensure that skills are learned progressively, making it essential for riders to attend both consecutive sessions.

Rider Levels / Rider Grouping System

Our rider level system focuses on bike setup, confidence, riding experience, and skill level. Age will be a guideline, but will not 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 a unique combination of mountain biking skills and outdoor nature play, offering off bike explorations, fun bike games and of course plenty of trail time!

• Build foundational MTB skills: Stability and balance, controls – brakes and gears.
• Foster connections with self, others, and nature.
• Help riders develop confidence and control on the Dju Wang Baring terrain, including a focus on the park’s green beginner trails for less confident riders.

The 3-hour sessions are flexible, with a balance of riding and adventure play, ensuring fun and skill progression. Riders will enjoy plenty of trail time and outdoor activities, with time for a BYO snack break.
