Camp VC Beginners riding lesson: Saturday 1:30pm - 3pm

For 2025 we have reduced the number of participants per session, as we feel this will give riders the best possible experience. This is reflected in the new cost and time per session.

In this session with the team at Days on the Dirt you will:

• Learn how to use a clutch on a motorcycle, from neutral to first gear

• Start/stop a motorbike, with the use of a clutch

• Complete a turn

• Link turns in a slalom

• Complete a figure of eight

• Progress into second gear (if you’re feeling brave!)

• Ride around a little track we make

What does my £65 get me:

• The use of a 2022 Honda CRF125, the PERFECT bike to learn how to ride on, shared with a small group of riders

• A helmet and gloves to use

• A damn good time in an hour and a half and the perfect foundation to pursue motorcycling

• Plenty of ride time at the end of the session

• All the necessary insurances and fuel for the motorbike

• No charges in the unlikely case of damaging the motorcycle

Can I bring my own kit?:

Sure, if you have a suitable helmet and gloves, please do bring them. We have them if not and you can also borrow kit from the provider on site.

We also ask that you wear clothes that cover your arms and legs (no shorts and tees) and that you wear good shoes, ideally boots covering your ankles but trainers are fine for what we’re doing (just no slides).

We also recommend not getting full kit from the provider on site, as when you’re new to motorcycling it’s often too much and we find that riders in it struggle, especially with the big boots on!

Who will train me?:

At Days on the Dirt we pride ourselves on being passionate motorcyclists. Every instructor has grown up, riding and racing their whole lives and look forward to sharing the thing that they love most, with you.

We don’t let just anyone teach for us, all instructors (male and female) have been heavily vetted by bossy Leah and share our ethos. And are all very capable motorcyclists.

How will I get more info on my session?:

Final instructions will be mailed (so please input your best email address) out at least a week in advance of the event. Detailing meet points, times and all the info you may be wondering.

If you have any other questions or queries in the meantime, please contact- daysonthedirt@gmail.com > please don’t DM us on social media… we’re pretty slow atm.
