About us...

Gauntlet is a registered charity established in 1995, run mainly by young people and a voluntary management committee including County Council representatives, Youth and Social Work professionals, Engineers, Mechanics and youth representatives. Our aim is to work as a youth project encouraging members to become involved in the running of the project.
We seek to promote: |
Gauntlet has a variety of mopeds and motorbikes / Go-Karts and Quads. We have a coffee bar, workshop and a seven acre field. |
We have a membership riding accreditation scheme, camp-outs, holidays, outdoor activities and other events to encourage self esteem building and personal development. We have entered the national competition Youthbike for the last eight years and have won many trophies. All members have the opportunity to take part in these events.
