Minikhana is a motorcycle sport designed to help kids learn motorcycle skills in a controlled environment. Riders race around cones, a small motocross track, trail tracks, and Enduro tracks, all in one discipline.
The age of the rider on 1st January determines their competition age for that year. The club offers different age classes and bike categories, ranging from 4 to 21 years old.
