The future of off-road dirt bike riding depends largely on the next generation. More riders are needed and that’s why Honda Canada and Popkum Motor Park have decided to offer Honda’s Junior Red Rider and Red Rider Evolution programs at Popkum’s facility in Rosedale, B.C.

Tailored to kids aged six to 12, the Junior Red Rider program teaches the fundamentals of off-road riding while the Red Rider Evolution program is meant for riders aged 13 to 17. It is designed to teach advanced riding techniques to those who are looking to improve their skills. Honda’s Red Rider programs emphasize safety and they are designed to be both fun and instructional for kids and parents.

As part of the training programs, Popkum will have a complete line of 2013 Honda bikes available for participants. The park also has riding gear, such as pants, gloves, helmets and goggles, available for rental. Visit Popkum’s website for more information; a schedule of upcoming Red Rider training programs will be announced shortly.
