A Little About ProRider
Thank you for visiting ProRider's website and taking a few minutes to learn more about ProRider. Throughout the website, you can read up on the classes that we offer and the people that make things happen, but in this section I want to provide you with the background on how ProRider "came to be."
After realizing the value gained by police officers who complete motor school, we began looking at the motorcycle training options available to civilians and were disappointed to learn that there weren't many. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation does a great job of providing basic training to beginners and intermediate/refresher training to experienced riders. However, there was no training available that was comparable to the advanced skills taught in police courses. There is nothing secretive about these skills- nothing that is going to compromise officer safety if learned by the public- they simply aren't incorporated into any civilian classes.
Upon realizing that there was huge opportunity to bring advanced skills to civilian riders, we began talking to a number of police motorcycle officers and other instructors and obtaining feedback and ideas. There was overwhelming support for the idea of creating a civilian riding course that is truly modeled from police motorcycle exercises and techniques- and not just the low-speed work, but the crash avoidance, proper threshold braking and street skills as well.
With the collaboration and input from other motor officer instructors, we developed three challenging, fun, and rewarding course options for experienced riders that want to take their riding abilities to a new level: Advanced Riders Course, Precision and Control Course, and the Defensive Riding Course. Classes kicked off in Fall of 2013, and has since expanded nationwide.
Each Training Site is independently licensed and operated, but meets a rigorous approval process and conforms to the high standards established by ProRider.While each Training Site and every instructor brings their own personal flare and touch to the learning process, every affiliate of ProRider is committed to providing an exceptional training experience and giving riders the tools and confidence they need to develop their maximum riding potential.

Testimonials from ProRider participants
Moto Coach Review
I started motorcycles 6 years ago. I enjoy it as a discipline and wanted to get feedback on my riding and sharpen my technique. I booked Chuck for a couple of hours on a weekend to work with me. Chuck was great, he was very patient as he assessed my skills and was immediately able to adjust his lesson plan to meet me where I was at. He set up many different drills focusing on clutch control, this was fun and taught me to live in that friction zone at slow speeds. Throught the many drills my skill increased and I felt a lot more confident in myself after spending a couple of hours with him. He is very patient and I think anyone, regardless of skill level, would benefit from spending time practicing with him. I’ll definitely be riding with him again.
Ralliegh
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and got some great coaching and tips out of it. My confidence level went up, and it highlighted my weaknesses in using too much rear brake and not focusing enough clutch and throttle. I do hope that you are able to grow this business and also get a cone camp set up. Thanks again for your time this weekend.
Ryan F.
