This 1-day Introduction is for complete beginners; it's taught for students who have never been on a motorbike - of any kind.
If you're an experienced motorcycle rider, you'll still have a great day of learning new skills for a dirt course and the handling of a dirtbike;
but this program will cover all of the basics, for everyone.
We'll teach you everything, top to bottom: pants, boots & helmet, gear overview, stretching (yes!), safety inspections, mounting, posture, controls, course exercises and more info on bike types, dealerships and how-to-continue.

My Own Bike?
Most people use our bikes, but if you have your own bike, definitely bring it! It's best to learn on your own equipment, after all.
Small Bikes?
We have 6 CRF150Fs, so we're happy to welcome "not tall" students - for those of you who stand 5'-ish.
