Total Control Intermediate Riding Clinic (TC IRC)
All Courses:
The Total Control Intermediate Riding Clinic is the perfect next step for newer riders who are looking to improve their skills on their own bike as well as riders that have recently gotten back into riding after years away. This course includes both classroom and on-cycle instruction.
About This Course
You will learn intermediate-level skills required to safely operate a full-sized motorcycle and understand the basic psychology of riding to help make better choices on the road. Students completing the IRC report significantly improved riding skills, confidence and the ability to make better choices about when and how to ride.
Although designed primarily as a safety course, the IRC is both challenging and fun. The Clinics are taught over a single day or two half-days, typically on your own motorcycle. The IRC is based on the most current research in rider safety, utilizes modern training methods and has been proven to enhance student outcomes.
Topics covered include:
- having a proper mental state
- understanding two-wheeled vehicle dynamics
- cornering strategies for multiple types of turns
- emergency braking and evasive maneuvers
The IRC is also used extensively by the Navy and Marine Corps as “Level 2” training (within 60 days of completing a beginner course) and “Refresher” training (every three years) to reduce crashes, injuries and fatalities. It is officially recognized for Level 2 training by the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard, which satisfies requirements for active duty service members and civilians to get their base sticker to ride on base.
