What to Bring
Participants are required to bring their own dirt bike and a full set of riding gear that meets the requirements outlined in our Dirt Bike Equipment Regulations.
All bikes and riding gear will be checked upon arrival to ensure they meet our safety standards before participating in riding activities. We are committed to creating a safe environment where young people can confidently challenge themselves, learn new skills, and enjoy the adventure.
