These classes are being offered as a set. Registration has closed. I will run a small list of people who want to be notified if someone should decide to cancel their reservation. All cancellations must go through Stan.

The first class, Precision Maneuvering Clinic (PMC) is a half-day course for endorsed riders modeled on police motorcycle officer training. Participants provide their own motorcycle and protective gear.

Participants improve coordination of clutch, throttle, and steering inputs to keep the motorcycle balanced at low speed while executing tight turns and U-turns with precision and control. Students also practice group riding formation, parking and signals. Watch the video. PMC is recommended for endorsed riders ready to take their skills to the next level.

In the second class (PMC-2), participants fine-tune low-speed handling skills, making quicker, tighter turns in more confined spaces. This course also features a high-speed weave and brake-and-escape drill.

The Cornering Clinic is taught on a kart track and focuses on the curve skills critical to safe riding. While participants ride at more real-world speeds, this is not a high speed, racing-oriented class. Participants provide their own motorcycle and protective gear. Participants learn to ride “two turns at a time,” linking multiple curves and choosing the best lines.

Here is the fine print: You will need proof of motorcycle endorsement and insurance, and your bike must be in roadworthy/safe operating condition.

Recommendation: Before attending, change your brake fluid if it’s more than 2 seasons old.
