New Rider Course
Learn how to operate a motorcycle in a safe and structured environment under the direction of professional instructors who emphasize five global skills:
- communication
- observation
- steering and balance
- space margins
- speed control
Our 30 hour course will get you riding quickly. It begins with two evening theory sessions on everything from selecting motorcycles and riding gear to traffic strategies. Following that, there are two Riding Skills sessions that progress from the basics of balance, steering, turning, and changing gears to advanced steering and sudden braking. At the conclusion of the second session, we administer the ICBC certified Motorcycle Skills Assessment. The final two days focus on Traffic Skills to prepare you for the Okanagan traffic environment and the ICBC Class 6 road test.
Before you start the course, you must have your Class 6 or 8 learner's permit. This can be accomplished at any ICBC Access Centre after studying "RoadSense For Riders." You will also need to collect riding gear that meets our minimum standards for rider safety. This includes: leather boots that cover the ankle, long pants and long sleeved jacket, and gloves with leather palms. You may supply your own helmet, or use one of ours at no extra cost.
Courses are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
For information on our standards for student riding
gear give us a call at our office (250-764-7075) or email
us at
v-twinokanagn@shaw.ca.
The cost of our
course is $699.00 plus GST. This includes the use
of our bikes, delivery of the ICBC Motorcycle Skills
Assessment and use of a helmet if required. If you
take your road test in Kelowna, we will also supply
the bike at no extra charge.
Come on out and enjoy the ride!
New this year, we are offering a course for absolute beginners. The cost is $450 plus GST. It does not include in traffic training, but that can be added later for additional cost. The course for absolute beginners will cover the same material, spread over 3 days instead of 2, so there will be more riding time to learn the skills. Students can then arrange a special traffic course for those who want to go on.
Learn to ride in the sunny Okanagan, and be well prepared for the ICBC Class 6 road test.
