Dual Purpose Rider Course (DP)

This course has been developed for someone who is interested in riding their Adventure bike on- and off-road. It is assumed that the rider can already ride on-road but would like to discover and/or refine their off-road riding. This course will equip the rider to do intermediate tours but also lays a good foundation for progression to the advanced course (DP1).

Course content:

• Mounting a bike, balance and body position.
• Picking up the bike.
• Balancing on the bike in different positions.
• Mastering primary controls (throttle, brakes, clutch and gearing).
• Basic up and downhill techniques.
• Basic side slope techniques.
• Emergency braking (front, rear, both).
• ABS considerations.
• Maneuvering the bike in different terrains.

Duration

8h00 – 13h00
