Developed by former national champion motorcyclist Lee Parks, this course is designed specifically for returning riders 18 years of age or older, and for those that have been riding for years without a motorcycle license.


The IRC is challenging and exceptionally fun, but not a beginner course. Candidates must be at least 18 years old, well-practiced with basic motorcycle skills, and must supply their own 2-wheel street legal motorcycle.

Not for Beginners

This course presents intermediate-level riding skills required to safely operate a full-sized motorcycle, and the basic psychology of riding.  No beginner skills are presented.
