      Level 2 Intermediate Training

      Continuing from our Level I class and/or building upon the skills you have already, this 2-day training class further refines your control of the motorcycle through the mastery of “The Triple Threat” – the Clutch, Brake, and Throttle at slow speeds, over terrain and during tight maneuvering.  Body position is critical in Level II training and will be explained and practiced at length.

      Level II Training is for life-long learners; those who realize motorcycling is a perishable skill.  At the end of this two-day training event, you’ll be ready to ride more technical trails, further gain confidence and become a better rider. Practice is still key, however. Ride with others who have good riding techniques, display safe and considerate motorcycling etiquette and encourage you to “ride your own ride”. Also consider adding the 1 Day Upgrade Beyond Training Ride to further enhance the experience and practice what you’ve learned!

      The experience was better than PERFECT... Dusty and Tom were amazing instructors. The 2 days of drills they put us thru were truly a boot camp for the 3rd day of riding 3 of us did with Tom. I cant emphasize how import it is to do the 3rd day if you possibly can. The "real world" situations you experience bring together the previous 2 days of "drills" they put us thru. Dusty and Tom were always positive and encouraging even if we were having trouble absorbing the "fire hose" of info they were directing at us. I have encouraged all my street bike riding friends to take this course if they ever want to ride in the dirt. Thanks West 38 Moto for making this transition from road to dirt safer and lots more fun. Now onward to Baja! Kim Marks

      I found Dusty on YouTube and have been watching all of his videos. having bought a new GSA, I needed to make sure I knew how to ride offroad and what to do in order not to get injured. So when I met him for level one he did just the required basic riding techniques and at Level II more in detail followed by a day of advanced riding which I think is essential for us to practice what we just learned on the two-day program. His explanation and how he conducts his teaching and training make you so comfortable that you become one with the bike. If you are an old-time rider like me or new and looking to improve what you think you know, this is always a good review course. I'm planning to join him on his 5-day trip to Baja soon and extremely happy with the learning and 100% recommend it to you all. Farshid

      I had an amazing experience in Baja with Dusty, Kelly & John leading the way. Their knowledge of the area, routes chosen, lodging selections and food were all way beyond my expectations. Not only was the trip so good but it was also an unbelievable value. While I wouldn't _want_ to spend more I do think Dusty could charge more for all that he provides. I look forward to doing another tour with Dusty and team!!!

      Fantastic experience with Dusty and Tom. Top notch instruction, attentive customer service, and overall just a fantastic time. More reasonably priced than comparable trainings but would gladly pay more for the same experience given the quality. I'll certainly be back for more!

      Dusty is an awesome guide and made the experience very worthwhile. I love how we adapted the routes to account for weather, terrain, bike capabilities, etc. Amazing food and lodging, will be looking to join more of these in the future.
