British Cycling will be bringing the exciting Go-Ride skills test to Mountain Mayhem this year. Go-Ride gets bigger every year and works with local clubs and schools to make cycling safe and fun for children as well as taking (and talking!) cycling to young people at big events.
With hundreds of clubs and schools already involved, Go-Ride is bringing the thrill of cycling to more and more children every year and not only giving them a chance to experience the challenge of tackling skills tests and activities, but also providing them with ideas about how to get regularly involved with cycling locally.
This year, Go-Ride will be present at Mountain Mayhem for the first time. Go-Ride coaches will be offering young riders aged 8-16 the opportunity to experience the Go-Ride Skills test. There will be a British Cycling Goodie Bag for all participants – Why not give it a go?
WHAT’S INVOLVED
Young Mayhem riders will be able to pit their newly acquired skills against the clock, after a short skills based sessions with coaching input from Go-Ride coaches. The skills test will tests skills such as riding slowly, riding under a limbo pole, bottle pick up and put down, slalom, mini ramp etc.
Don’t worry if your first go isn’t as fast as you want it to be! There will be lots of opportunity to have repeat goes. The main aims for Mini Mayhem is to have fun, be safe and be accessible for all.
