ADVWoman Group Training
May 23 - May 27
ADVWoman presents a group training event for women adventure motorcyclists, limited to 16 riders with lead instructors Pat Jacques and Shalmarie Wilson.
LEVEL 1 session for new riders, but if you’ve trained with us before, you’re ready for more—new for 2024 we will focus on LEVEL 2 and LEVEL 2 PLUS training.
All riders will learn essential skills including how to handle the height and weight of tall ADV and dirt bikes, proper seated and standing body position, balance, clutch and throttle control, counterbalanced turning, braking on loose terrain, line choice, and riding obstacles. LEVEL 2 means deeper ruts, steeper hills, loose rocks, deeper sand. LEVEL 2 PLUS is about combinations of challenging terrain like really steep hills (think sand dunes) and combinations of steep, loose, tight turns, and sand.
Small class size means riders will receive lots of personal attention from professional coaches. Our step-by-step teaching method builds skills progressively meaning you’ll learn to ride slow in a straight line before you’ll learn to do slow turns. Build skills and confidence quickly with practical training which you will immediately apply. We will end the day with a short, fun scenic instructor led, beginner appropriate ADV ride.
Sunday, we’ll pack lunches and enjoy an all-day outride in the dazzling Escalante Canyon region. It would be nice if the entire group could ride together, but we can split into LEVEL 1 and LEVEL 2 groups.
