The Total Control Intermediate Riding Clinic is designed to help licensed riders build confidence and internalize safe riding habits, with next-level instruction on vehicle control, emergency braking, obstacle avoidance and tighter, more efficient cornering. (Riders are required to bring their own bike for the course.)

In the IRC you will learn the critical information and skills to make you better, more knowledgeable and a safer rider.

Skill Development Class. Not a License Class.
You are expected to ride your own bike.

The Course

Our Total Control Intermediate Riding Clinic focuses on helping you build confidence as you go deeper into basic skills. You’ll learn techniques for sharpening your awareness on the road and using target fixation to your advantage (look where you want to go.) You’ll improve vehicle control with front-rear braking strategies, learn to shift body weight for tighter, more efficient cornering, and manage traction for control on a variety of surfaces.   

Students must have at least 500 miles of riding experience and hold a current California M1 license. Class size is limited to 6 per session, so you’ll always get the personal attention you need.
