This motor biking season, the BMW Motorrad Enduropark in Hechlingen offers you
a very special holiday pleasure on two wheels. Youngsters between ten and
seventeen will be able for the first time to hold the handlebar of a motorbike
for themselves. The off-road motorcycle training area in the Altmühltal
conservation area offers a trial training event specifically for young novices.
Experienced instructors familiarise the youngsters with the basics of motor
biking. The "syllabus" covers the right seating position and riding manoeuvres,
such as braking, U-turns and pulling away on off-road terrain.
In small groups - only four motorbikes per team - the young participants
execute the half-day training course on special trial bikes with 710 mm seat
height. And the parents are not there just to watch: While their teenagers
gather their first motorbiking experience, they will be able to treat
themselves to an off-road rider safety training as part of the BMW Enduropark
rider training programme.
A half-day training course for young novices with trial bike provided at no
extra charge costs 50 euros. The participants must bring their own protective
clothing (safety helmet, boots, gloves, suit with protectors). Training times
are either from 09.00 h to 11.00 h or from 15.00 h to 17.00 h. Training dates
during school holidays: 27.05./28.05/29.05./30.7./13.08./20.08.
Registrations are possible only by mail or telefax. Registration forms may be
obtained from the Customer Service Center :Phone: +49.(0)1805.324737 (0.12€/min)
