Bike, age, skill... you're set!
No matter what age, what class - if you've ridden at Taikorea in the past or this is your first time - you're going to have a great ride.
The purpose of the park and tracks are to develop riding skill. It's a venue to both foster stars of the future, yet just as importantly... provide a great day out for the family who just want to ride at their own pace for fun.
If you are a keen part-time fun rider in the Manawatu and are ready to move up to the next level ... Motocross racing, sign up for MOMCC club membership and organise a competition licence.
