Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to ride mountain or other off road bicycles as part of a group on easy trails and according to planned routes.This unit provides the skills to cycle off road on easy trails defined as trails that are likely to be a combination of fire road and wide single tracks with a gentle gradient, smooth surface and relatively free of unavoidable obstacles. The trail surface is mostly firm and stable but may have obstacles such as small logs, roots and rocks, and some areas of loose surface. Climbs and descents are mostly shallow but may include some moderately steep sections. It applies to leaders, guides or instructors, who use these skills when leading participants during cycling activities. Leadership skills are provided in complementary units. The unit can also apply to assistants and support staff.This unit applies to any type of organisation that delivers outdoor recreation activities including commercial, not-for-profit and government organisations. When on road, cyclists must comply with the legislated road rules for the particular Australian state or territory, and with special road rules that apply to cyclists. All training and assessment activities must comply with the local state or territory requirements.No occupational licensing or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. | ||
