NOVICE LEVELS:
Level 1: Riders who have ridden a few times or haven't been on a dirt bike for a few years. A person in this level will experience difficulty maneuvering well on rocks, in sand or climbing and descending hills.
Level 2: Riders who can ride a motorcycle but do not feel comfortable riding up and down hills, whoops, or standing up on the pegs.

INTERMEDIATE LEVEL:
Riders who can ride over rocks, sand, up and down ledges with little difficulty and can ride at a faster pace. Riders in this class will have a good understanding of body language as it applies to motorcycles as well as the mechanics of how a motorcycle works.

ADVANCED LEVEL:

EXPERT LEVEL:
Riders who are able to ride on any surface without experiencing difficulty and who can ride for extended periods of time (7-8 hours) without tiring. Racers will be in this category.
