There is also the Moto Gymkhana on site for riders to test their skill against the clock and police riders will be taking part in a Police Challenge on their patrol bikes. There will be stunt displays and a police parade lap around the circuit at the end of the day.

There will also be the opportunity to meet officers from the Police Firearms Unit, explore the world of the Underwater Search Unit, meet both four-legged and two-legged members of the Police Dog Unit and play giant “Cop Trumps”.
