Parents are encouraged to take the course with their kids. Why? Well, besides the bonding experience, after taking the class themselves, parents will have a good understanding of how to ride safely and in control, using good technique. Dirt bikes are easy to ride incorrectly, and can be ridden very fast, incorrectly. If you take the school, you then become a "coach" for your child when they have their own dirt bikes.
DB101—FUNDAMENTALS OF DIRT BIKING
One-Day School. This course is the basic building block for all our other schools. Take this course before you even buy a dirt bike. In it, we cover the fundamentals of what, when, where and how to ride a dirt bike. It doesn’t matter if you already ride a motorcycle or don't know which end to get on. If you want to find out why a dirt bike is sooo much fun, or increase your skill levels, start here. Lunch is provided and plenty of water and Gatorade for breaks. Optional second-days can be made at sign-up if you are not sure about a two-day school.

DB201 TWO-DAY DIRT BIKE SCHOOLS
Two-day schools are designed to get you really riding good by the end of the second day. No, you won't be jumping doubles on the MX track, but you will have a very good basic knowledge of how to ride a dirt bike in varied terrain, with good technique.
- If you have taken DB101 one-day school, you may take the just the second-day of DB201

DB301--THREE-DAY MINI-SCHOOLS
Three-day mini-courses are designed for ex-students ready to get EVEN better. Four hours in length each day. Both kids and adult classes for ex-students only. These are four-hour schools, grouped together to maximize training, where we work on techniques and skills and progressively add to them each day. Bonus--you can "free-ride" with your group after the school for an even more fun time. Schools are held on Sundays or three-day weekends (with a Friday or Monday holiday).

Wondering whether to take a one-day, two-day, or three-day course? One-day courses are designed to get you comfortable on a dirt bike and having fun. But, if you think you will want to pursue dirt biking, then the two-day school is the way to go. Three-day schools are reserved for ex-students. We reinforce what you learned on day one and introduce new skills during the following day(s).
