Kid's B class. What should we expect?
Posted: Mon Feb 19, 2018 10:21 am
My oldest daughter started riding last year. She's 9. A very small 9.....
We started on her a crf50, but moved her up to a ktm50 senior towards the end of the year.
We did several races at PBMX. It was pretty laid back with only the occasional fast kid.
It was a very good fit for her developing skill level. Then......... we signed her up for the arenacross event a Barten. Those kids were all stupid fast! And bc she was on a senior, she had to ride with them.
Now, we are looking to do the Kirby scramble. Because of her age and bike, she is forced into the Kid's B class. What should we expect from the competition? What Bikes are they riding in that class? I don't expect her to win, but I don't want her to get hurt or lose interest in the sport.
Thanks
