Come and Join us for our first Dual Slalom Jam presented by Mountain Biking Jersey in conjunction with Jersey Cycling and Jersey Youth Cycling in aid of Headway Jersey.

1pm-4pm on Saturday 26th July at Jubilee Hill. 

This will be a relaxed and fun event for ages 8-16. If you want to ride the slalom course on your own or you prefer to battle it out with a friend, anything goes! We can even time your run and add you to our leader board throughout the afternoon if this is what motivates you!

All proceeds will be donated to Headway Jersey. Each entry includes a day member fee of £2 to cover insurance. You will need to abide by the Jersey Youth Cycling club rules and will complete a registration sheet on arrival. https://www.youthcycling.je/our-club/code-of-conduct/ 

Bikes and helmets must be in good working order, with functioning brakes, bar ends and good condition tyres otherwise no ride! Gloves are highly recommended. 

Headway Jersey raises awareness for wearing helmets.

'As a charity dedicated to preventing brain injuries, we sadly know how easy it can be to sustain a life changing brain injury as a result of not wearing a helmet, whether on a bike, scooter or other wheeled vehicle. The long lasting impact is profound, affecting not only the individual who has sustained a brain injury but also their family and friends.

The reality is that an accident can happen to anyone at any time, whether you are an experienced rider or just starting out, young or old, on a busy road or quiet countryside.

Appropriate, correctly fitted helmets offer vital protection to your fragile skull and can save lives and significantly reduce damage to the brain in the event of an impact. Headway Jersey believes everyone should follow this helmet guidance – Get it. Fit it. Wear it.

Evidence shows that wearing a helmet significantly reduces the risk of serious head injury. The difference between a mild brain injury and a moderate or severe brain injury can be catastrophically life-changing. Unlike other injuries sustained as a result of a cycling or riding incident, a brain injury doesn’t simply heal in time and many people who sustain a moderate or severe brain injury will never fully recover to be the person they once were and live the life they once lived.'
