Some things just never come to Cape Town because of all sort of reasons, none of which of course has to do with the Kapenaars and their sense of adventure ... , but this time we are proud to say that this very successful course offered at Country Trax Amersfoort (mother ship) and KZN is now also offered in the Cape close to the Mother City at the beautiful farm Eselfontein, Ceres.
Country Trax became the benchmark of off-road training in South Africa with its Adventure/Dual sport courses about 10 years ago and the Dirt Bike Fundamentals Training became the next field of expertise for the Country Trax team a while back already.
Everyone agrees that your skill and confidence to ride an adventure bike is greatly enhanced when you learn to handle an Enduro/Dirt Bike correctly. It is GREAT fun and you can practice many techniques and tricks on the smaller & lighter bike which you can apply with good results on your bigger adventure bike. This course is also ideal for those self taught Dirt & Enduro bike riders to get rid of bad habits and if applying the correct techniques, will get much more enjoyment from their bikes. Please note that this is not a course for novice off-road riders, and we recommend that you have attended one of Country Trax's Weekend Off-road courses or other training or that you have some Dirt or Enduro experience already.
Country Trax has spent much time and effort in developing a curriculum which covers all the basics of Dirt Bike riding. At commencement of the course, riders will be divided in groups according to experience and current level of skill. You will be in the hands of excellent riders & instructors Leon Kroucamp ( you probably know him - senior Country Trax instructor; competing & excelling in local Enduro races) and William 'Wild Will' Gillitt (check him out at www.wildwillracing.com and see his regular column in Enduro World).
