Safety First

Get Trained and Licensed: Take an MSF RiderCourse and ride legally with certification from the DMV.

Wear Protective Gear: Wear real, head-to-toe, motorcycling-specific safety apparel and a helmet manufactured to the standards set by the Department of Transportation.

Ride Unimpaired: Never use alcohol or other drugs when riding.

Ride Within your Limits: Don’t ride faster/longer than your abilities allow.

Be a Lifelong Learner: Keep going to training classes annually to brush up on skills and knowledge.

Call DTM to find about motorcycle rider training, or to build on your skills. Our 10-Step Guide can tell you everything you need to know about getting started in two-wheeling, from lessons to gear; from insurance to the type of bike best suited for your needs. We can set you up in a class. We’re connected to the Motorcycle Safety Foundation that offers basic, experienced, off-road and even scooter schooling. DTM also has connections with high-performance, track-based riding schools.
