Slow Ride Motorcycle Training
The Academy of Rider Skills offers a comprehensive and progressive approach to learning how to ride a motorcycle, catering to both complete beginners and experienced riders seeking to refine their skills. They provide a structured pathway, beginning with the foundational ‘Motorcycle Class,’ designed specifically for individuals with no prior experience. This initial class covers fundamental concepts of motorcycle operation, including controls, clutch operation, throttle management, braking techniques, and basic road awareness. Participants receive hands-on instruction and supervised practice in a controlled environment, building confidence and establishing a solid base of knowledge. The class incorporates theoretical elements as well, focusing on motorcycle safety and responsible riding practices. Moving beyond the introductory level, they then expand into the full ‘Motorcycle Course’, a multi-day program that builds upon the skills learned in the initial class. This course delves deeper into advanced riding techniques, including cornering, hazard avoidance, emergency braking maneuvers, and navigating various road conditions. They utilize a variety of motorcycle types to expose students to different handling characteristics and rider perspectives. Throughout the course, a strong emphasis remains on motorcycle safety, with instructors continually reinforcing safe riding habits and emphasizing the importance of defensive riding techniques. The Academy of Rider Skills is committed to providing unparalleled motorcycle safety training. Their curriculum incorporates advanced courses focused on specific riding styles, such as adventure riding and off-road techniques, each building upon the core principles taught in the initial ‘motorcycle class’ and the overall ‘motorcycle course’. They also offer specialized training in areas such as traffic awareness, risk assessment, and motorcycle maintenance, further enhancing student competency. They maintain a strict focus on creating a safe and supportive learning environment, ensuring that all students graduate with the skills and knowledge necessary to become confident and responsible motorcycle operators.
