Junior MiniGP · New Zealand

First Lap. First Lesson.

New Zealand's dedicated junior MiniGP pathway. Purpose-built race-bred motorcycles, structured rider development, and sanctioned racing access for ages 3 to 16.

A serious start to a racing life.

Lap 01

The Pathway

Five stages. The bike is the entry. The pathway is the product. Every rider moves through it at their own pace, and no stage is skipped.

01
Trial

One session. Find out if it sticks. 60cc bike, full kit provided, instructor on track. Parents on the fence after this session are welcome to walk away. Most don't.

1 Day · From age 3
02
Beginner

Eight-week block on the Apex 60. Saturdays. Master throttle control, braking, body position, and the line before speed enters the conversation.

8 Weeks · Ages 3 to 10
03
Developing

Race-line training. Step up to the Apex 110. Lap times become real. Riders learn to read a session, debrief with their coach, and ride with intent.

12 Weeks · Ages 9 to 16
04
Competitive

Sanctioned racing. Race numbers issued. Riders enter the New Zealand MiniGP series, and the weekend becomes a race weekend. Parents become a paddock crew.

Race Season · Ages 10+
05
Elite

National-level pathway. Selected riders. Targeted coaching, fitness programming, and international race exposure. The route from Auckland to the world.

By Selection · Ages 12+
