Getting Started
Here is some information that may assist you with your decision making process:
ABOUT US: As we are one of the smallest Minikhana clubs in NSW we pride ourselves on offering a friendly community environment for kids to ride. You can read more on the About Us page and the More About Us page.
PREVIEWS & PHOTOS: You are more than welcome to check out the club before you join. Come along around 9.30am, preferably on a practice day and ask for one of the committee members, who will go over everything with you. You can see lots of photos showing what we get up to on the Club Photo hosing website HJDBC.smugmug.com here.
MOTORIKE CLASSES and TYPES: There are five classes of bike in Minikhana, plus Nipper/Demo that is non-competitive. You can find a summary here.
KICKSTART: All new members of our club are required to complete a kickstart program which is basically an introduction to the clubs rules, policies, safety procedure for both riders and parents. This is a requirement from Motorcycling NSW, our governing body. Dates for the Kickstart program are listed on our calendar here and see REGISTRATION below for information about what and how to do it.
PARENT/ GUARDIAN PARTICIPATION: On any day that your child/children rides we expect a parent / guardian to be available to be a flag person or Marshall. As you could appreciate we are a small club and need all parents to get involved for the benefit of the kids. It’s not a difficult requirement and we will provide training to all parents.
FEES: In summary it costs each applicant $75 to join plus the yearly membership fee of $60 for singles or $90 for families. Our Fees for 2020 can be found in Annual Fees and Charges here.
REGISTRATION: Follow New Member Electronic Enrolment Procedure (pdf) for a guide on how to enrol and pay using the RiderNet website, which is a program operated by Motorcycling NSW.
RIDER NUMBER: Once you become a member of our club and have completed our Kickstart program you will need to choose a rider number that will become your child’s unique club ID. This number will also be printed on their jersey that all riders must purchase and wear on ride days. We always try to accommodate all requests for numbers however we can’t promise anything as some numbers may already be taken by existing members.
RIDE DAYS: We expect to have a total of about 20 ride days at Hornsby during the year subject to availability of officials. These days will be made up of Training, Practice, Club Competition rounds, Endurance and Mini Cross events. Once your child is a member of the club and licenced they can attend as many of these days as you choose. See our calendar here.
