All instructors have a minimum of 20 years of street, mountain riding or racing under their belts. “Experience is the best teacher.”

Riders that show they can’t control their machine or ride in such a manner that they are a “Safety Hazard” to the rest of the group will be asked to leave the ride. We will not tolerate some “SQUID” jeopardizing another rider's life. These rides are intended to be fun and educational at the same time.
