It says it’s a 15-hour course but your schedule is 20 hours-
why?
A. The start times listed are exact but end times are approximate.

Most classes end early the second day.
Q.
Can I really learn how to ride in 2 days and is all the gear listed
really necessary?
A. Most people are able to ride in 2 days. If you think you need
more time we offer tutoring or our Pre-Rider

Rider Course. Due to the MSF, insurance and state requirement
all gear that is listed is required when taking the class.
Q.
Do I get my motorcycle license at the end of this course or do I
still have to go to the DPS office?
A. With the completion of the BRC a certificate is issued, which
you take to the license office and take the written test only. If
18 years old or older you do not need a drivers license to take
the class.
Q.
What is the difference in the BRC and the ERC and how much riding
time do I need before taking the ERC.

The ERC is designed for the rider that has a minimum of riding time
as well as continuing education. You must have your motorcycle license
to attend. The AMA says that for a rider to increase their survival
skills, take the ERC regularly.

on the Advanced Turning, Braking, and Swerving techniques.
