KIDS PROGRAM 2018
DFX Mini Shredders
This new program in DFX allows our youngest riders to start exploring the trails on run bikes or pedal bikes. Whether riders are cruising on their run bike, transitioning to a pedal bike or are already shredding on the trails we have a group for them. Coaches will choose trails appropriate to your child’s ability level to help them develop their technique, stamina and skills. Groups will also play games off their bikes, do crafts, have story time and go on non-biking adventures. Groups will be formed on age, ability and bike type. Groups may fluctuate as riders improve and will be coached by a core group of coaches that are experts with 3 and 4 year olds. Children need to be 3 by the start date of the program.
