Policies
If you are going to ride a motorcycle we want you to do so as safely as possible. The Motorcyclist Training Course (MTC) provides the most basic instruction for new riders. It is an excellent place to determine if riding a motorcycle is right for you.
Safety First, Safety Always
At all times and in all ways be aware of your surroundings on the range. Things are moving pretty fast and your Instructors are constantly scanning to assess safety. If you are asked to leave, please be considerate of the rest of the class.
Carefully review “What to bring to class” information before the start of each session.
Code of Conduct
Instructors will enforce immediate dismissal for being under the influence of alcoholic beverages, reaction-altering drugs, including OTC or prescribed medications, possession of weapons, intent to harm students or Instructors, foul or abusive language, abuse of equipment, willfully not following instructions or any other intentionally unsafe or disruptive act.
Restricted License Notice
Individuals with a restricted license will not be allowed to take the course until all restrictions have been lifted. If a person with a restricted license does not disclose the information, passes the course and receives a DL389, the DMV will not honor the DL389 form.
Refund, Reschedule, Cancellation Policies
If you buy a ticket to a concert, play, movie or sporting event, and don’t show up, you lose your money. There are no exceptions. Buying a seat in one of our courses is the same as buying an event ticket. It’s a one-time opportunity: when it’s gone, it’s gone. You may request a date change or cancel within our approved period.
Refund Policy
This is a non-refundable course. The following will result in forfeiture of course tuition:
- Failure to appear to any portion of the class
- Failure to arrive on time, to any portion of the course
- Arrival at classroom without all the required documentation
- Arrival at the range without proper riding gear
Reschedule & Cancellation Policy
Cancellation refunds of tuition less 15% will be granted if you cancel 2 or more business days in advance of your class start date. You may also reschedule your class if you notify us at least 2 business days before the start date of your original class. You must contact the office and speak directly to the TWST coordinator within this time frame.
MTC Completion Fees
TWST students that didn’t complete or pass the training will be contacted by email with their option for re-test or reschedule. Students must respond to the email or contact the office to reschedule their training. Below are the various fees to complete the MTC training.
Re-test Only
Students are allowed a second chance to pass and complete the MTC training. There is a flat rate to re-test only. Students are guaranteed a spot for re-test regardless of whether the class is sold out. Students must complete and pass the training within 60 days of the start date of their training.

Extra Ride Time (ERT) & Skills Re-test Only
Students that fail the skills test and are in need of more riding time before re-testing can take the ERT and then re-test afterwards on a different date. The rate for the ERT + Skills re-test is $125 for a guaranteed spot, in both sessions. ERT classes are usually scheduled the day before most scheduled skill tests. Students must complete and pass the training within 60 days of the start date of their training.
