Minikhana Come & Try Days are a fun, skills based, low risk and excellent introduction into motorcycle sport for new junior riders.
Unlike most other motorcycle disciplines, riders are not competing bar to bar and rather completing fun courses to develop their own skills.
There are 12 different courses available to run on these days. Organisers can run as many of these courses as their venue space permits.
Even though these events are targeted at new riders, we encourage current club members to participate and help out new participants enjoy their first event and make them feel welcome.
