Trailblazers, Dural, NSW
Has trying to teach your kid to ride ended in tears, stress and a few dummy spits? Just imagine how embarrassed the kid must feel. Sydney-based potential riders have a great alternative.
TrailBlazers is based in Dural (north/west Sydney), approx 35-40 minutes from the CBD, with five acres on which it conducts training courses and private training sessions.
Sessions are based around the fundamentals and intermediate skills of learning to ride a motorcycle, as per Motorcycling Australia’s excellent Kick Start program. Time is spent on the safety aspects of riding, safety gear, bikes, safe riding and emphasize the philosophy ‘Safety and Fun’, in that order!
All riders initially receive ‘one on one’ training until they’ve mastered basic riding, balance, brakes and throttle and then training continues as a group.
At the conclusion of a basic course, trainees are generally confident riders who can then expand their skills by returning for the monthly, two-hour ‘Open Ride’ sessions, where riders can come back to revise their skills and build new ones, or go onto join a mini wheels club.
It’s the ideal situation for a lot of our parents, as everything is provided: bikes, all safety equipment and trainers; mum and dad just turn up and enjoy the atmosphere.
The private training sessions can be tailored to suit the individual, basic for those who would like a little extra care and patience whilst being taught to ride, right through to advanced for those wanting to hone their skills and improve their riding.
