BIG CYPRESS — The Seminole Tribe Motocross has just opened a three-eights of a mile track specifically designed for beginning or younger Pee Wee motorcycle and Quad riders ages three through nine. The Seminole Tribe Motocross is one of few riding facilities to have a course specifically for Pee Wee riders.
The young riders and their parents will enjoy having a challenging, yet safe, track all to themselves, complete with jumps, corners, sweeping corners, and straights. Protective riding gear, including a helmet, goggles, boots (over the ankle), long sleeve shirt, and long pants are required.
Additionally, the Seminole Tribe Motocross Park recommends riders wear motorcycle-specific protective riding gear, including a chest protector, knee guards, elbow guards, and helmets with DOT or Snell approval.
Parents are asked to supervise their riders at all times. The cost for rider's age six and up is $20 and riders five and younger is only $10. Regular general admission for non riders is $3.
Riders of all ages and skill levels have been heading out to this incredible new riding facility in order to ride what is the motorcycle community calls one of the most state-of-the-art motocross riding facilities ever.
"We want everyone to be able to enjoy themselves and leave here with a big smile on their faces, so we are building different tracks to suite each and every need,” said Jack Gorton, Track Director. “We had 150 riders here last Sunday and we haven't even begun to promote this yet.”
The Seminole Tribe Motocross is currently open for practice on every Saturday and Sunday, 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., and every Thursday, 12:00 p.m. until dark.
