0:14:06 > 0:14:08This is Blue Peter, but mini.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11Expect epic adventures, makes, bakes,
0:14:11 > 0:14:13badges, pets, presenters,
0:14:13 > 0:14:15and your post.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18We've only got five minutes, so get ready for your Blue Peter adventure.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21HE IMITATES REVVING
0:14:21 > 0:14:23- Oh.- What Barney's trying to say is,
0:14:23 > 0:14:25"We'll be doing that!"
0:14:25 > 0:14:27BARNEY LAUGHS
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Yep.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33He's excited.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35We're taking on Oset bikes -
0:14:35 > 0:14:38electrically-powered bikes that can go pretty much anywhere.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42We've come to a course in Yorkshire where young riders test their skills
0:14:42 > 0:14:45to see how we compare.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47It's time to meet our coach, Dan.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Dan, it is a pleasure to meet you.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Never mind the interview, I want one.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55- Barney is very excited about this. - Hi, Dan, how you doing?
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Hi, Barney. Pleased to meet you.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59I ride a bike, but it's a very different bike to this.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02What are the differences between mine and this one?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04- There's no seat - you stand on the foot pegs.- Yep.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06The throttle is on your right-hand.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08So, the throttle, is that the, "Vroom!"?
0:15:08 > 0:15:11- Not on these.- There's no "vroom", is there?- No. Completely silent.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13- Of course not. - Because it's battery-powered.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Dan, should we get a book out and find out all about...
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Radzi, you're a good friend...pipe down.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20There's a ton of bikes, let's make this film happen.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Here we go!
0:15:22 > 0:15:25And we're off. Well, one of us is anyway.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Hang on.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Don't forget this is my very first time riding a powered bike
0:15:29 > 0:15:32and, believe me, it's not as easy as Barney's making this look.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Look at him - he loves the speed.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37I'm scared of the speed...
0:15:37 > 0:15:40- And that needs to change. - Come on, Radz.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44I am definitely getting the electric bike bug, and I'm not the only one.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46These young riders love it, too.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48'Oh, they're really fun.'
0:15:48 > 0:15:52You can play about on it all day and the batteries last long.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Hup! Perfect.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56- Yeah!- Oh, mate!
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Barney just did a wheelie.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01'I was really excited,'
0:16:01 > 0:16:03like, "I want to have a go, I want to have a go."
0:16:05 > 0:16:09You can really play around any time you want, anywhere,
0:16:09 > 0:16:13and you get no noise complaints from any neighbours or anything.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14Already, training's over,
0:16:14 > 0:16:19and now we face three big challenges that will test our biking skills.
0:16:19 > 0:16:20Oh!
0:16:20 > 0:16:22But before we get stuck in,
0:16:22 > 0:16:25we need some final advice from top young rider Ollie.
0:16:25 > 0:16:29You need to understand that you can't put your foot down,
0:16:29 > 0:16:31cos if you do, every time you touch the ground,
0:16:31 > 0:16:33it's a penalty towards the ultimate score.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36So you want to be sharp on your breaks and have good balance.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Barn, I'm not ticking many of those boxes.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41I think if you believe in yourself, you can do this.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Do you know what? Bring on the challenge!
0:16:45 > 0:16:48He's got no chance.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Time for our first big test...
0:16:52 > 0:16:55It's a steep descent down a muddy track and up the other side.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58This one is all about brakes and power.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00- BARNEY:- And I'm up first.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Let's have a go here, Radz - let's see what happens.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Back brake on, stick to the line...
0:17:04 > 0:17:08Here we go, now the middle bit. Bit of power! Ya-hey!
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Stage one complete.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12It's now the turn of Chinyanganya. He is nervous.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14It doesn't look that steep on camera,
0:17:14 > 0:17:15but it's a lot steeper as I'm going down.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Keep the speed, don't fall off. Keep going...
0:17:17 > 0:17:19HE STRAINS Yes!
0:17:19 > 0:17:20Mate, well done.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24So, we've both nailed that one. It's on to challenge two...
0:17:25 > 0:17:28We have to ride up a rocky path to the top of a field
0:17:28 > 0:17:30and back down the other side.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33That may SOUND easy, but remember -
0:17:33 > 0:17:36we have to do a complete run without putting a single foot down.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39And this time I'm up first.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42'And I quickly realise this section is a lot tougher than the last.'
0:17:42 > 0:17:45That's not the track!
0:17:45 > 0:17:49'It's so rocky and no matter what I do, I just can't get my bike going.'
0:17:49 > 0:17:51My challenge has changed.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54It's, "Can I push this bike around?"
0:17:54 > 0:17:55HE PANTS
0:17:55 > 0:17:57'This stage has clearly beaten me.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00'But I really want to try and just complete it.'
0:18:05 > 0:18:07That was too tough.
0:18:07 > 0:18:08That was too... I tried my best,
0:18:08 > 0:18:10but I've met my match.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13'It's clear that no matter how hard I try,
0:18:13 > 0:18:16'I'm never going to be able to get around
0:18:16 > 0:18:18'this section without touching the ground...'
0:18:18 > 0:18:20but can Barney?
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- Wow, nearly. - HE GRUNTS
0:18:24 > 0:18:26'I soon see why Radzi was struggling.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28'This is really tough.'
0:18:30 > 0:18:32So close!
0:18:32 > 0:18:34'No matter how many attempts it takes...'
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Come on, mate. This is the one!
0:18:37 > 0:18:41'..I'm determined to do a complete run without touching the ground.'
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Go on, Barn.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45Go on, Barn!
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Go on!
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Yeah!
0:18:50 > 0:18:52'Hey, hey! At last, I've done it!
0:18:52 > 0:18:54'Get in.'
0:18:57 > 0:18:58Yes, mate.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Only the final challenge is left...
0:19:02 > 0:19:05OK, the name needs a bit of work, but this is tricky.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07You have to ride through water
0:19:07 > 0:19:10and make it over a large rock and on to a raised section,
0:19:10 > 0:19:13all without touching the ground.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Although I gave it my best on challenge two, I failed,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18so this one would definitely beat me.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Over to you, Barney.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27- BARNEY GRUNTS - So close.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31'But you know what they say - "If at first you don't succeed...
0:19:32 > 0:19:36' "..try again." And, yes - he does it.'
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Yeah!
0:19:38 > 0:19:40That is the most fun I've ever had.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43Not just the fun of the sport - this brand-new sport -
0:19:43 > 0:19:45but look at the future champions. It was absolutely amazing.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47Thank you for helping us with your top tips.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49One thing before we go, though, erm...
0:19:49 > 0:19:50do we get to keep the bikes?
0:19:50 > 0:19:52- ALL:- No!
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Ah, OK.
