FREE MOTORCYCLE RIDING CLASS

Begin2ride Session 1, “Basic Motorcycling Skills”

What: The begin2ride program is for first time riders.  This program is specifically designed and spectacularly successful in lowering the risks and increasing the enjoyment for beginner riders.  No knowledge of motorcycling is required for this session.  We do require that you can balance and pedal a bicycle prior to taking this practice session.

The begin2ride program consists of three, 3-hour riding sessions for beginners using 125cc motorcycles. Each session in the begin2ride program develops a particular skill-set. Participants in these sessions learn risk management techniques and fundamental skills used to operate any motorcycle with control.

During the Basic Motorcycling Skills riding session you will develop and practice the physical skills of shifter control, clutch control, smooth take-off, and efficient stopping technique.  You will be introduced to the mental skills of motorcycling including an important risk management technique.
