Tune-Up
Whether you have ridden for a number of years or have completed the New Rider Training and want to kick it up a gear, this course is for you! The Tune-Up is a transitional training course going beyond the fundamentals into levels of increased control and giving riders an introduction to advanced motorcycle training.
What you can expect to learn
The Tune-Up offers riders instruction into a variety of areas associated with motorcycle riding and safety, including (but not limited to): tactics for defensive riding, recognizing and addressing dangerous situations, handling emergencies, navigating challenging intersections, riding on various road surfaces, group riding and communication, slow speed stability, high speed mobility, and proper head and eye placement.
On-course portion
Many of the drills for this course are designed to simulate real road situations so that riders can practice tactical defensive riding. Learning to address dangerous situations ahead of time enables them to make appropriate decisions when these situations occur out on the road. Throughout the Tune-Up we will be working with students to establish the technique required for slow speed stability and maneuvering. These skills when mastered will give students full control of their motorcycle in heavy traffic situations dealing with multiple vehicles and pedestrians.
On-road portion
During this practical on-road instruction you will learn the importance of situational awareness and proper communication skills for group riding. We will explore and learn how to properly negotiate some irregular situations, challenging intersections and road structures, as well as various road surfaces while enjoying an afternoon ride with some new friends.
