Back after great success last year! Everyone can improve their slow speed riding skills. Slow Ride Motorcycle Training will be at the 49er providing their top-notch Police Style Riding courses for improving your slow speed riding.
If you're a motorcyclist and you ride often, you've probably experienced a low-speed maneuvering issue at one time or another. The failure to control a motorcycle when speeds get under 12 miles per hour usually results in a drop or tip over. Think slow tight turns or weaving around an obstacle. If this describes you, then you need to attend our Slow Ride Motorcycle Training course.
We offer the Level 1 Class in the morning and afternoon on Friday and Saturday morning. The Level 1 Class is offered only on Saturday afternoon. Be sure to select the correct class on the registration page.
The level 1 course teaches civilian riders the techniques used by police motorcycle officers in a non-stress, controlled environment. We don't use tall cones! The introductory course will cover the proper use of the clutch, throttle, and rear brakes to balance the motorcycle at low speeds. All techniques will be discussed, demonstrated, and then coached on a one-to-one basis.
Designed for experienced riders looking to up their game, or for those who completed the introductory course in the morning. Our instructors will take you through a step-by-step process to help you master low-speed maneuvering techniques needed for U-turns, turns from a stop, and more. Each exercise will be discussed, demonstrated, then practiced in a non-stressful controlled environment.
Each session is $250 per rider.

Riders should bring a ball cap, sunscreen, and plenty of water. The following must be worn while operating your motorcycle on the range:
Motorcycles will be inspected by the instructors prior to riding on the range. Please ensure that your motorcycle has good brakes, tires (properly inflated), and a good battery. Handlebars should not touch any portion of the rider when the wheel is at full lock in either direction. The rider must be able to smoothly operate the throttle and clutch.
After building your skills, be sure to sign up for BMW NorCal's Asphalt Trials Challenge on Saturday!
Slow Ride's mission is advancing your rider skill level through focused coaching in a non-stressful learning environment.
