Join Appalachian ADV at Street Track n' Trail in Conneaut Lake, Pennsylvania for one and two day ADV & Dual Sport Riding Clinics! These Clinics are intended to familiarize riders with the theory, physics, and skills necessary to ride ADV and Dual Sport bikes on gravel and dirt surfaces (16+ with motorcycle endorsed license, Riders' bring thier own bikes). Small group training... each clinic will only have 5 riders and a USMCA Certified Coach! Our 2025 Riding Clinic Schedule is listed below with registration links after the New Year! Reach out to [email protected] for more information or for any questions.
In the first session we start with bike set up and ergonomics then build upon each aspect from bike lifting techniques through bike balance, friction zone, body positioning, braking drills, steering techniques, maintaining and breaking traction, line selection and tire placement, managing and negotiating obstacles (ruts, rocks, loose gravel, small logs, potholes, hill climb and hill climb recovery, mud, etc.). The second session takes us into the real world, building on the skills & drills from the previous session. Trees, rocks, ruts and other natural features replace the cones. The controlled environment at Base Camp is replaced by a semi-controlled environment when we hit the road. We review how to interpret terrain features that have been weathered and run through by other off-road vehicles.
Watching riders take on a challenge, somewhat reluctantly occasionally, and making it through the other side with a huge smile on their face, their clinic teammates cheering, and high fives all around is super rewarding for all and one of the best feelings to share with the group. When you don't make it through a drill or the real world features and your bike takes a closer look at the ground, your teammates are there to pick up your bike and your spirits. We review the failure point on the spot and, if desired, take another crack at it. Our goal is to help riders build confidence in their abilities and the abilities of their machines. We provide lunch on Saturday (1- & 2-Day Clinics) and the ability to camp on-site.
2-Day Clinic = $450
