TRAINING
RULES & CONTRACT
Adhere
to the following rules and meet the required standards -- you are
assured of completing and obtaining a MSF Completion Card.
1.
It is a prerequisite that you are able to ride and balance a
bicycle. [At some point
in your life you must have been able to ride a bicycle so you know
how to balance on two wheels -- inability to balance on two wheels
will require counseling out of the course].
2.
The course has a schedule to maintain. If you miss a classroom session
or range exercise, you will be counseled out of the course.
3.
RiderCoach(s) are responsible for providing a safe and orderly learning
environment. Any student who behaves recklessly, disrespectfully,
or unruly during any phase of training you will be counseled out
of the course.
4.
A large portion of the classroom work is done unsupervised utilizing
group learning techniques. To maximize the group’s learning effort,
everyone within the group is responsible for asking questions and
stimulating discussion to get the most out of the classroom material.
Failure to contribute to your groups' learning (by using cell phones
or being inattentive) will result in you being counseled out of
the course.
5.
You are required to wear the following protective gear during every
range exercise:
--
Helmet (DOT approved -- RidingSafety has loaner helmets)
-- Eye protection – face shield, glasses, sunglasses, or goggles,
etc
-- Full fingered gloves (do not have to be motorcycle gloves --
just flexible)
-- Long sleeve shirt or jacket
-- Long pants (no cuffs or bellbottoms)
-- Ankle protecting foot ware -- boots or over the ankle protective
shoes
-- 2 piece rain-suit [available in case of rain... we ride, rain
or shine]
6.
During range exercises, individual coaching is provided to help
you maximize your learning on the motorcycle. Each exercise has
a maximum amount of time allotted for completion, and a minimum
standard that must attained. If you cannot attain the standard within
the allotted time, you will be counseled out of the course.
7.
Each exercise builds on skills, knowledge, and confidence gained
in previous exercises utilizing a building block approach to learning.
If you regress (unable to execute a riding skill previously performed
to standards), you will be counseled out of the course.
8.
It is natural to be nervous about learning to ride a motorcycle.
While some apprehension is expected (and normal), excessive fear
or anxiety is not -- they lead to tenseness, learning and comprehension
problems, and ultimately to mistakes that could endanger yourself
and the other students. If a RiderCoach perceives fear/anxiety is
limiting your riding ability or affecting the safe operation of
the range, you will be counseled out of the course.
9.
To attain a Motorcycle Safety Foundation completion card, you must
1) pass a riding skills test on the range, 2) pass a multiple-choice
knowledge exam in the classroom, and 3) demonstrate/apply a comprehension
of safe motorcycling techniques/practices as ride on the range and
discuss safety in the classroom. The final decision to award a MSF
Completion Card rests with the Chief RiderCoach. All RiderCoach
decisions are final.
