Jamhuri Motocross Track

Jamhuri Motocross Track is the dirt circuit near Jamhuri Park that hosts rounds of the Kenya National Motocross Championship and the East African Motorsports Club's races. On ordinary days it works as a training ground. Offroad Adventure East Africa runs an off-road school that takes children from age 5 on kid-sized bikes, and children on automatic bikes need no previous riding. Smaller riders can also book a 15-minute quad ride (ages 5 to 10). The school trains on its own bikes or on yours, and it charges a separate track fee for sessions at Jamhuri.

Jamhuri Motocross Track prices

Checked 8 Oct 2026 against Offroad Adventure East Africa, Offroad School.

Lesson prices, not an entry fee. The first four sessions cover body position, cornering, braking and throttle control. The school page does not list hours, so book by phone or form.

How to join

1. 1Call Offroad Adventure East Africa on +254 781 958 548 or use the form on their site. Give the child's age and say whether they have ever sat on a motorbike.
2. 2Choose a bike. The school lends kid-sized bikes (automatic, semi-automatic, KTM 65SX and 85SX, Honda 125). Kids on automatics need no experience.
3. 3Confirm the venue when you book. A session at the Jamhuri track adds KES 2,000 on a school bike or KES 1,000 on your own.
4. 4Ask what kit comes with the lesson. Their site lists helmets, boots, gloves, body armour and knee and elbow guards, but does not say whether any is included or hired.
5. 5Expect the first four sessions to be basics: body position, cornering, braking and throttle control. Ruts, jumps and hills come later.
6. 6Quad rides are a shorter option for ages 5 to 10: 15 minutes, KES 1,500.
