Here’s a rundown of how the day will be structured: For Riders Kids will enjoy a “roll-around” on the track, supervised by our league coach and on-track volunteers. This is an "appetizer portion" of the fun to be had in the League. Each League session also includes racing as part of the program. For Parents Watch from the stands, or grab your bike, air up the tires and join the fun with your kids. When it comes time to sign up for the League, parents ride for $50 off the Youth tuition. After a tour of the facility, we will give parents a briefing on how the League format works.
