Bikes After School - Introduction to MTB

About

The Intro Crew is all about getting kids aged 10+ comfortable on their bikes in a social setting, preparing them for the wonderful world of mountain biking by developing skills and techniques they can call on to ride safely and confidently. The goal of the program is to create a safe, fun and inclusive environment for the kids to learn some valuable skills on their bikes - and hopefully make a friend or two while they're at it! The exact meeting location of each week is TBC but will either be Wesburn Park or Scotchman's Creek Bridge in Warburton. Beginning Tuesday 17 February, sessions will run from 4:00pm - 5:00pm on the following dates: Tuesday 17 February Tuesday 24 February Tuesday 3 March Tuesday 10 March Tuesday 17 March Tuesday 24 March You’ll need to bring your own (working) bike and helmet, as well as some other important stuff - see the full gear list below. Cost: $175 for 6 weeks payable prior to the first session. Please ensure participants are registered prior to Friday 13 February 2026 to secure their spot. Participant numbers will be capped at 6 for Term 1 to ensure safety and maximum fun! Please note that as the cost covers the full 6 weeks, no full or partial refunds will be issued if a session or sessions are missed due to illness/holidays etc. Upon booking, an invoice will be sent with payment details. For our wet/crazy weather policy, please refer to the Terms and Conditions section. Please ensure each child has the following for each session: - A safe and working off-road bicycle - it does not need to be fancy, just in good working order. Please don't hesitate to contact me prior to sessions for advice on this. For example, a BMX (as long as it has working brakes) is fine! MTBs are encouraged but not mandatory. - A well fitted, good quality helmet that complies with Australian Standards. - A water bottle or backpack bladder (we will never be too far from water refill) - Snacks Parents/Guardians: - Please ensure you have read, understand and agreed to the Terms and Conditions on behalf of your child - Please bring any specific medications your child may need e.g. Ventolin, Epipen, glucose supplements. *Term 1 program will go ahead provided a minimum of four participants are registered prior to the first session.
