Thundercross is the only dirt bike park with a range of tracks available to suit all levels, a fleet of 18 hire bikes and tuition from accredited coaches.  We are a one-stop shop for dirt biking!

Riders must be able to ride independently and steer/brake/corner confidently on two wheels.  

Our hire bikes are suited to rider's physical size and dirt bike experience; riders must be able to place their feet flat on the ground when sitting astride the bike.   

Beginners are required to have at least one hour of tuition with us (included in this package).  The personalized tuition is tailored to your needs, at any level. James is one of NZ's most experienced dirt bike coaches; you will be in good hands. 

Our experienced Thundercross Team will look after you.

No matter your age; if you can confidently ride a two-wheel pedal bike, we can teach you to independently ride a dirt bike around our Learners' Track. No motorcycle experience or licence required.

This package includes 1 hour of tuition, which will give you the basics of bike operation - starting, stopping, and braking for safe control and independent riding. Our coaches will get you going, so that you can enjoy the rest of the day on our Learners' Track, set in the centre of our beautiful 750-acre Park, with stunning views all around.
