WHO'S IT FOR?
This program is designed for young or Beginner riders who are still developing their confidence.
✓ Aged approx. 5-8 years
✓ Already able to ride a pedal bike
✓ Building confidence on Green (Beginner) trails
✓ Keen to learn new skills and have fun riding offroad
✓ Comfortable participating in a small group without a parent riding alongside them
Riding ability is more important than age. If you're unsure whether your child is ready for Shred Squad, please contact us before booking.
PLEASE NOTE
This is not a learn-to-ride program. Riders need to already be able to ride a pedal bike.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Get ready to ride
We'll meet at Mystic Park Trailhead, get everyone organised and make sure riders and bikes are ready for a fun session on the trails.
Learn through games
We'll use fun games and activities to help riders develop their bike handling, balance, braking and control skills without making it feel like a formal lesson.
Build your skills
Riders will work on fundamental mountain bike skills at a pace that's appropriate for their ability, with plenty of encouragement from our instructors.
Hit the trails
Once we're ready, we'll put those skills into practice on dirt paths, grass and Beginner MTB trails around Mystic Park.
Have some fun!
Shred Squad is about more than just learning skills. It's an opportunity for young riders to get outside, challenge themselves, meet other kids and discover how much fun mountain biking can be.
Expect plenty of riding, a few challenges, lots of encouragement and hopefully some very happy (and, perhaps, muddy) kids!
