FIVE-DAY MOTORCYCLE BOOT CAMP
FIVE DAYS OF RIDING
It’s five days of thrilling motorcycle adventure. Boot Camp is split up into three sections: two days of On-Road training, two days of Off-Road training and a final day of off-site adventure riding. It’s rigorous and fun.
FIVE DAYS OF INTENSE FUN
Our pro instructors are here to guide you through every challenge.
PRO RIDING INSTRUCTION
Our professional riding instructors have years of experience and are with you every step of the way. They’ll always perform the initial exercises with you, demonstrating everything from proper seating positions to the best way through a corner.
REACH YOUR OWN LIMITS
We practice challenge by choice, so you’re always at a level of performance that you feel comfortable with. Our instructors provide instant and positive reinforcement while encouraging each rider to have a little fun. Okay, maybe more than a little.
FIVE DAYS OF ON- AND OFF-ROAD TRAINING
SLOW RIDE
Your brakes aren’t the only way to keep it slow. We’ll show you how to control speed through the friction zone of the clutch. Get your fingers nice and loose.
TRAIL STOP
Trail Stops involve bringing the motorcycle to a complete temporary stop while you maintain your balance. Then, add throttle and, with a controlled release of the clutch, you’ll regain stability with forward momentum.
WASHBOARDS AND RUTS
These sections are all about body control and managing suspension capabilities of the bike. You’ll learn the proper position for traversing small and big hills alike while keeping it smooth.
GRAVEL AND SAND
Learn how to control your adventure bike in deep loose gravel, building the foundations for riding in sand and mud.
START AND STOP ON A HILL
Overcome an unexpected stop on the face of a hill by getting yourself back down safely in a controlled manner. Then, head down the other side and recover from a drop.
HILL ASCEND/DESCEND
Prepare for attack. You’l gain the confidence needed to navigate any size hill. Then, ride down in a controlled manner that will allow you to react to the unexpected.
CONE WEAVE
Cones, your greatest frenemy. Learn the importance of dynamic transitioning from one direction to another with confidence by using countersteering.
FIGURE EIGHT
Keep it in tight. We arrange our cones in a figure eight, enabling you to make tighter, more efficient slow-speed turns by utilizing the friction zone to control speed and counterweighting to control lean angle.
CORNERING STYLES
There might be more than one way to take a turn, but there’s only one right way. Here, we teach the importance of body position and momentum when navigating various corners.
