1. Welcome, how to check your bike and helmet, mounting, dismounting, points of contact and weight shift. 
2. Balance and coordination, starting and stopping (effective braking). 
3. Cornering and choosing the right gear
4. Hills, ascending and descending
5. Riding with others, leading and following
6. Putting your skills into practice on the track.
