    I’ve just got back into the off road scene, purchasing a WR450 mid last year. I’ve also purchased a CRF150f for my 13 year old daughter. There are limited options for taking junior riders out for enduro /bush riding and the only other options are Broady Mx Park in Melbourne. My bike is fully reg’d and the crf is not yet rec registered. I was thinking that a system could be put in place where the following rules have to be complied with to allow this to happen. What are your thoughts out there?

    1. Child over a certain age, ie 12 years.

    2. All bikes to be rec registered.

    3. Child to be accompanied by an adult licenced rider to a ratio of 1 to 1.

    4. Child to attend an approved adapted rider training course. (Which could be run through the various rider training centres around Melbourne)

    5. Only to be used in designated areas such as state parks etc.

    Gday Col,
    welcome to OBT.

    Having two kids who ride, I would love to see a plan like that come to fruition. Good luck getting any of the legislators to look at it though,they are having enough trouble keeping the schemes they have in play now to work properly. :S

    Keep an eye on the site, to get yourself on a ride with our resident Viccos, they are nuttier than squirrel shit but are good blokes none the less. :laugh:

    Thanks Micknmeld! given the recent increase in motorcycle deaths this may be a way to educate kids before they’re permitted out and about on there own. Anyway I will be putting the feelers out with rider trainers, Vic Pol special solos etc to see what their thoughts are on the idea. If i can get enough support I will try to push it forward!
