minimum OFF ROAD requirements . . .

Terms and conditions apply, click for details.

The minimum requirements for all participants are as follows…

Age - For our off road school, there is no age limit; as long as you are physically able to ride our bikes (or your own bike) that is enough. For trail riding, please see the licence requirements section below.

Licence – You do not need any kind of licence for our off road school, but for trail riding the legal requirements are the same as for any road bike. If you use your own bike for a trail ride, you will need a road motorcycle licence, MOT, road tax & insurance just the same as you would need for any road bike.
If you use one of our bikes for a trail ride, the following requirements apply:

  • You must be 25 to 70 years old.
  • You must have a full UK road motorcycle licence that you have held for at least 1 year (restricted 33hp licences are acceptable).
  • You must bring your licence and one other form of ID (passport, bank card, credit card etc.) with you on the day. If you have a photo-card licence, you will need both parts.
  • You must have no more than 6 penalty points on your licence, and no prosecutions pending (other than parking offences and/or one speeding offence).
  • You must have been involved in no more than one motoring accident/claim during the past 3 years.

Medical fitness - It is your responsibility to ensure that you are medically fit to ride a motorcycle (with correct corrective eyewear if required), and to that you are not suffering from any condition (or taking any medication) that could affect your ability to control a motorcycle. You will be required to sign a declaration and indemnity to this effect prior to the commencement of activities.

Clothing – You will need the correct off-road clothing to take part (see CLOTHING for more info). In addition to this we recommend that you bring the following clothing with you on the day:
A t-shirt to wear under your body armour or jacket. You will not need a sweater etc. under your jacket because you will soon warm up once you start riding.
If it the weather is warm, bring a spare t-shirt to change into at the end of the day because you are likely to get hot when riding.
If you are hiring boots from us, bring 2 or 3 pairs of socks (you may get wet feet, and the socks will help you to achieve a comfortable fit for your boots).

Other essential items – We also recommend the following items:
£10 for lunch and any refreshments you may require.
2 half-litre plastic bottles of water with a screw top.
2 high-energy snack bars (e.g. flapjacks, breakfast bars or muesli bars).
