Licence Requirements
To ride in any Junior Offroad Riding Event you will need either a Competition or Recreational Licence issued by Motorcycling Australia.
Annual or one-event licences are available for both categories with prices as follows:
- Annual Junior Competition: $215*
- Annual Junior Recreation: $85.50
- One-event Competition: $44.00
- One-event Recreation: $20.00
* Discounts apply for 2nd and 3rd child from same family.
If you do a few sums you could save a lot of $$$ and time at registration in the mornings by purchasing a yearly licence.
Coaching Requirements
As from the 1st July 2006, any Junior rider wishing to participate in a Competitive Motorcycle Event, must have completed 5 hours of Coaching and completed the questionnaire provided by Motorcycling Australia in the Kickstart Booklet.
What this means-
Any Junior Riders that have participated in one of our Junior Riding Skills days in 2007 have met the 5 hours coaching requirement.
What you now need to do is –
1. Ask Motorcycling WA (9371 5333) to forward you a Kickstart Manual or pick one up at the next event.
This manual has the Coaching & Riding Test Assessment, and the Multiple Choice Theory Test. (For a limited time Kickstart Manuals will be available at our Junior Offroad Riding Events). You can download a copy here.
2. Once you have completed five hours of coaching ask one of the coaches to “sign off” on the Coaching and Theory Test.
3. Forward your completed assessments to Motorcycling WA.
Once you have your assessments signed off, you can apply for a One Event or Annual Competition Licence.
4. Motorcycling WA will then send you your own personal Log Book.
Your Log Book is your record of all events you have participated in, Coaching, Injuries and much more.
5. You must bring your log book with you to every event, and present it at Registration.
This ruling has been introduced for the benefit and safety of the sport.
It can sometimes slow the registration process at events and even prohibit some riders from riding competitively. But in the long run it will lead to a safer & more enjoyable sport.
Enjoy your Racing!
