Second Gear Club’s Rider
Development Clinic

The student ages range from 6 to 14 years old. Bikes will be limited. Let your kids learn from the pros, we’ll have lots of CMRC and CMA racers on site providing their expert instruction. Kids all ages must have parent/guardian stay onsite all day.
Second Gear Club’s Rider Development Clinic will teach basic safety and motorcycle techniques. Students will experience hands-on training, verbal coaching and riding demonstrations on how to operate a dirt bike then perform exercises in a controlled environment. Class sizes are kept small to ensure that maximum attention is given to each rider on and off the course.

What do I need to
bring?
We realize that there are many kids starting
out don’t have a full set of riding equipment just yet. We do not recommend
riding without a full set of riding gear. However, at a minimum participants will be
required to have a good quality helmet, goggles, knee pads, a pair of boots
with stiff ankle support and of course a bike!
It is highly recommended that riders invest in
quality safety gear such as a helmet, boots, chest protector, neck
collar/brace, goggles, and proper jersey/pants/gloves.
Hotdogs, burgers and drinks will be provided
at lunch. Don’t forget to pack your,
lawn chairs, snacks, drink & gas.
How much does it
cost?
While you don’t
have to be a SGC member to attend, it has its benefits! Registration is $40 per participant with a
valid SGMC membership. The great part is that we’ve kept the cost low and
have tried really hard to make family participation as inexpensive as
possible. With an annual family membership, you can attend all our great
events and races! These will be
available the day of the clinic.
