Two-Wheel Dirt Bikes

no need to pre-book

Thundercross welcomes riders on their own dirt bikes, quads & UTVs, where adventures continue since 1999!

At Thundercross, safety is our top priority. Before hitting the dirt, all visitors must sign-in and watch our induction video at The Wool Shed. We're sticklers for proper PPE gear, you are required to wear the dirt bike boots, chest protect, and dirt bike helmet.

Spectators must sign-in too!

Hours

EFTPOS, credit cards (+ fee), bank transfer and cash all accepted.

NO NEED TO PRE-BOOK AT THUNDERCROSS WHEN YOU ARE RIDING YOUR OWN BIKE!

See you in the Wool Shed. All Spectators and children must sign in, too.

* Female youth on their own bikes are free of charge to ride at Thundercross. James' daughter used to race cross-country and MotoX when there were not many females in the sport. In order to encourage more girls to participate James decided not to charge them for riding at Thundercross.

If you'd like tuition, James is one of New Zealand's most experienced dirt bike coaches; you will be in good hands. No motorcycle experience or motorcycle licence required. Our experienced Thundercross team will look after you.
