TIPS TO ACHIEVE THE MAXIMUM FROM THE COURSE

  1. You have to be comfortable with balance on the motorcycle .
  2. A reasonable level of fitness is recommended as training can be both quite physically and emotionally intensive.
  3. Drink plenty of water before and during the course.
  4. Especially in the colder months, wear layers of clothing which can be peeled off as it usually gets warmer in the day.
  5. If you have time, familiarize yourself with the controls of your bike as described in the bike’s manual.  
  6. If you drink alcohol, we recommend that you minimize your intake of alcohol before and during the course.   It influences your body’s ability to balance and focus.  This is essential for safety reasons.
