The Basic Rider
Course is approximately 15 hours of classroom and on-cycle instruction
conducted over a two day session. Emphasis is on basic techniques
as well as defensive maneuvers. It is designed for the beginner
who wants to learn to ride a motorcycle and for the experienced
rider who wants to sharpen their riding skills. This course is physically
and mentally challenging and students must be in good health to
participate.
* As of January 1st 2018 The state of Texas has moved to a new version of the BRC curriculum. This change means that all BRC customers will need to complete an online eCourse, print the completion certificate, and bring that certificate to the start of class. (certificate must include: name, completion date, certificate ID#) We cannot allow you to enter the class without this completion certificate. Your confirmation will have the information on how to complete the eCourse and a "coupon code" to use (there is no additional cost for the eCourse). Please read your confirmation and if you have any questions contact the office asap.
We provide motorcycles for this course and
a helmet, if needed.
Successful completion
of this course is recognized by the DPS for licensing requirements,
and could qualify you for a 10% reduction in your liability insurance.
Minimum age: 15 (under
18 with parental consent and Class C driver's permit or classroom
portion of Drivers Education completed).
Students must attend
all class sessions and pass both the knowledge and skill tests in
order to receive a Certificate of Completion.
The certificate, when
presented to the DPS licensing office, allows any person with a
Class C unrestricted license to waive the on-cycle test.
This course is designed
as a foundation to develop basic techniques. Almost ninety-six percent
of students pass the course the first time. We cannot guarantee
you will successfully complete the course nor can we guarantee the safe
operation of your motorcycle after completion of the course.
