STREET SKILLS COURSE I: Building CONFIDENCE
Street Skills I (SS I) is intended to help developing riders
build confidence in their riding abilities and in their bike,
whether recently licensed or a returning rider.
Participants must have successfully completed a Basic Rider
Course (BRC) or hold a valid
motorcycle M endorsement on their driver’s license to enroll in
Street Skills I. Road America recommends having ridden at least
one season on your current motorcycle before enrolling in this
course.
Focus Areas Include:
- Cornering Confidence
- Clutch/Shifting Confidence
- Starting and Stopping Confidence
- Braking Confidence
Price: $225/person
Participants ride their own street-legal motorcycle. All
motorcycles must be properly licensed and insured, and riders
must provide proof of insurance at check-in. Motorcycles should
arrive fueled with enough to last through the day/approximately
50 miles. Motorcycle specific DOT approved tires are
required. Riders using car tires mounted on their motorcycles
will not be allowed to participate in course
exercises. Bikes are subject to a safety inspection by the
course instructors. Road America instructors have the right to
refuse any customized motorcycles deemed unfit for course
operation.

On-range course work at the Briggs & Stratton
Motorplex is designed to simulate real-world riding
conditions. The Motorplex training circuit encompasses nearly one
mile of paved roadway featuring over a dozen unique curves,
elevation changes, interconnected curves of various and
alternating lean angles, and line of sight challenges. These
features combine to give the rider multiple repetitive
opportunities to study the road features to determine
the best control and path options.
SS I runs rain or shine. Plan accordingly for the weather
and bring rain gear if inclement weather occurs. Course size
is limited. Advanced registration is required.
