We are East Texas' premier provider of motorsports training, and the only one that offers the Motorcycle Safety Foundation's Beginning Basic RiderCourse for both motorcycle and 3-wheeler riders. You will also find that, due to excellent relationships with local dealerships and the riding community, we have shiny new machines for you to learn on, like Can-Am Rykers provided by Broadway Powersports in Longview and Honda Groms and Rebels from H&W Powersports in Palestine! If you like what you're riding, you're going to have a better learning experience - and we think you'll love these machines! Our Rider Coaches and their families love to ride and, whether you're a beginner or have years of experience, they are highly motivated to help riders learn skills for a lifetime of safe, enjoyable riding.
