Something new and exciting is opening in the Edmonton area this year. Brought to you by no other than James McCarthy, former Alberta Safety Council Instructor and creator of the motorcycle training programs at NAIT and CTEC. This is not a learn to ride course and James will be quick to tell you to go take that first unless you are already a class 6 holder, this is simply an option for enhancement of skills.
From James' announcement:
"What can we accomplish with private training? Over the many years of training well over 25,000 motorcycle rider training students, I’ve been compiling and keeping lists of teaching/practice points that students wished they had more access to.
Training can be provided on your bike or ours depending on your needs.
Training will begin mid April depending of course on weather.
All training will have a video component as a training aid.
