Where the rubber meets the road.

An excellent course for a newer rider: Spend an afternoon on the road with an instructor! The On-Road Clinic (ONR) is a 4-hour course focused on the skills most critical to riding safely on the street: Awareness. Speed management. Lane placement. Targeting. Control inputs. Judgment. We want you to thrive, not just survive!

ONR is designed to fine-tune your curve skills and minimize the chance of a crash. The most common type of motorcyclist fatality is “failure to negotiate curve.” Riding with our top instructors, you will practice finding the right target, picking good lines, delaying your entry and linking turns. This is not a fast ride, but a slower ride focused on precision. By the end of the class, your control and confidence in curves should be transformed.

On-Road Clinics involve riding in small groups. You should have one to two years’ riding experience, be comfortable riding at legal street speeds and able to “ride your own ride” without being distracted by other riders. Scooters, trikes and reverse trikes are welcome. Off-street versions of this course (Cornering Clinic and Advanced Riding Techniques) are also available.

“The instructors had great feedback and constructive criticism. Their encouragement meant the world to me!” – Dawn K, Hermiston

On-Road Clinics are recommended for endorsed riders ready to take their skills to the next level, but do not meet state mandatory training requirements for riders to earn a motorcycle license.

Please note: Riding gear is required for all riding activities. Also, see Completion & Eligibility Requirements.
