Revvi South West Showdown – Final Instructions

We are just over a week away from our first-ever EXGP Electric X Championship Rounds 1 and 2 and the Revvi South West Showdown event at the Wheeldon Off-Road Centre on the 3rd & 4th June and we are excited as always to be welcoming you, your little ones and your families to our event.

Here are a few final instructions to bear in mind ahead of the event…

– First up we want to say this is a fun event and the number one priority as a team is that everyone has a great time!
– Little dude’s cut the big dudes some slack if they are a little slow on track as we all get old sometime, and the same applies to looking after your parents, they are just as nervous as you.
– There is to be no riding outside of the Arena
– Please take your litter home
– Please drive responsibly in and out of the Venue and remember there will be lots of little ones around
– Parking is limited so please park where asked and with space in mind.
– Please feel free to ask our team any questions you have, we are here to help so you and your riders and families can have a great time.
– Please make sure you attend the riders briefing which is on Saturday at 8.30am on the track
– Please make sure you have your number clearly displayed on your bike
– Please be kind and courteous to our staff, members of the public, other riders and their families. We are here to all have fun.
– Make sure your batteries are fully charged
– Long hair needs to be tied up and inside their helmet
– All bikes must have chain guards.
– Parents must stand back from their riders at the start. If a parent pushes a rider off of the start the race will be red flagged and it will have to be restarted
– Parents who go trackside must be signed in. When signed in for going trackside you you will recieve a wristband which must be worn as well as a high viz vest. If you do not have one you can hire one from us for a £5 cash deposit.
– Parents who are trackside must stay in a safe place and not run around the track. It is their duty to pick up any rider who falls off near them. If we have a situation where parents are running around the track in front of other riders the race will be red flagged
– Parents must stand back from their riders at the start. If a parent pushes a rider off of the start the race will be red flagged and it will have to be restarted
– Lastly and most importantly, have a blast
