Basic Rider Course
$250 ($275 Weekday)

A great way to get started in motorcycling! Come out and try a riding class without buying your own motorcycle. If you can balance a bicycle we can probably teach you to ride a motorcycle. Our instructors have taught thousands of riders, have over 75 years of combined teaching experience, and over 100 years of riding experience. Motorcycles of 125-250 cc will be provided for each student, and the student may qualify for a MVC road test waiver. The course is delivered on a closed course in a low stress environment and includes both classroom and riding instruction.

You will learn basic motorcycle control skills, defensive driving and advance turning and braking skills. In order to successfully complete the course, students must be on time and attend all sessions, pass a written test on Saturday afternoon, and pass a road test on Sunday. It is rare, but Rider Coaches reserve the right to remove any rider who cannot successfully complete the objective of the exercises in a manner that is safe for all participants. The course will run rain or shine so be prepared to ride.

1. Student must possess a valid motorcycle permit. This is a STATE LAW and there will be no exceptions. You must have successfully completed the MVC knowledge and eye test prior to the course date, and the permit must still be valid on the final day of class.
