When it pours

Light rain

We ride. Wet-road practice is gold — drills slow down and we lend rain suits in sizes S to XXL.

Storm warning

A severe weather warning or lightning nearby and we stop. Your session moves to the next free weekend, no fee.

Heatwave

Summer sessions start at 6:30am and wrap by lunch, with a water station and a shade break every hour.

The callWe decide by 6am on the day and text everyone who’s booked. Check your phone before you leave home.

Who’s on the radio

Four instructors, one rule: nobody gets yelled at. These are fictional people — so we drew their helmets instead of their faces.
