Motorcycle Training in Bend, oregon
There is no better place to take a training expedition than in Bend. But we're a little partial, it's our home.
RIDE Adventures is headquartered in Bend and we know all the great places to see. When you train with us here you'll be training in the foothills of the Cascade mountain range.
Depending on when you take your training course there is a chance you'll experience a WIDE variety of terrain including mud, snow, sand, and scree. A true test for any ADV rider.
Intro to Intermediate
What's the Difference
If you don't think you'll get anything from our of-road training expeditions, think again!
We've trained worldwide moto travelers with very basic off-road skills. We've also trained beginner ADV riders who were already highly skilled. Each type has something to gain.
So are you a beginner or advanced rider? Do the self assessment below.
Intro Self Assessment
You might be an INTRO off-road ADV rider if when riding off-road:
🏍 You find it hard to multi-task (talk through your mic and drive) at the same time.
🏍 You have several crashes or near crashes or drop your bike frequently
🏍 You get exhausted riding off-road and need to take frequent breaks.
Intermediate+ Self Assessment
You might be an intermediate+ off-road ADV rider if when riding off-road:
🏍 You don't have a problem multi-tasking, you can chat and ride easily most of the time.
🏍 Crashes or drops don't happen often. You might have a few near misses.
🏍 Riding off-road doesn't tire you out and you can travel somewhat long distances off-road.

★★★★★"The training and instruction yesterday was phenomenal. Each of your team’s direction and insights at the group and individual level was incredibly helpful, I walked away with a lot more confidence than I arrived with. Expect to hear from me in the future for some of your guided trips."

So what kind of stuff will I learn?
First we're going to jump into the foundations like what gear you need, getting familiar with the bike, clutch and throttle control, body position.
Then we're going to build on that foundation and transfer what we know into usable skills. Such as slipping the clutch, using your feet to steer, balancing the bike, throttle and clutch together.
Foundational Skills in Action
During the whole process of developing and building your foundation we're going to be on a true adventure expedition right near Las Vegas, Nevada.
We're going to build your skill and immediately use those skills in a REAL WORLD setting.
The type of terrain, obstacles, and exercises we'll practice will be similar to many of our training videos.
We have a full video training playlist available on our YouTube Channel.
