Motocross
Motocross involves racing motorbikes cross-country, often across wet and hilly ground. It's dangerous, fast and very, very messy. Carey Hart is probably the world's most famous motocross star. He started riding when he was 13 years-old, and turned professional at 17. It's not all been plain sailing; during his career Carey has broken 63 bones in his body! He's appeared in pop videos and is married to the singer Pink.

If you want to have a go at motocross try a one day course at an activity centre first. There are courses available for kids aged six and above. They'll let you borrow a bike and safety equipment. A one hour lesson will cost around £25.
