RANGE PREPARATION RANGE RULES
174DOT approved helmet, Facial covering/mask, Long-sleeved shirt or jacket, full-finger motorcycle gloves, long sturdy pants, over-the-ankle shoes or boots with little to no heel.
RANGE RULES
1. Do not practice without RiderCoach permission.
2. Always wear all your protective gear when seated on the motorcycle, even when the engine is off.
3. Know the location of the engine cut-off switch and how to use it.
4. Keep the clutch lever covered during early skill development (especially the first few exercises). This is because a quick squeeze of the clutch lever will remove engine power from the rear wheel. Always be prepared to reach and squeeze the clutch lever.
5. If you start to accelerate out of control, squeeze in the clutch lever and apply the brakes.
6. Be ready to roll off the throttle to use the front brake lever. Keep your fingers around the throttle with your wrist flat to help with handlebar and throttle control.
7. Keep a time-and-space safety margin; check front, sides, and rear before moving out.
8. Yield to other riders as necessary.
9. Use courtesy and cooperation when sharing the range.
10. Stop smoothly in position if you see or hear a group stop signal.
11. If you get behind in an exercise, do not hurry your actions to catch up. Take your time.
12. Do not pass other riders unless directed to do so.
13. If you have a problem, move out of the path of travel if you can, and stop. A RiderCoach will assist you.
14. If you have a tip-over, do not pick up the motorcycle. Be sure the engine is off. A RiderCoach will help.
15. If you do not understand an exercise or become too uncomfortable to ride it safely, let a RiderCoach know.
