REGISTER NOWBASIC RIDERCOURSE 2
This one-day Basic RiderCourse 2 is designed for riders who already have basic skills. Similar to the BRC except speeds are higher and you may be on your own motorcycle. An excellent refresher course for practicing and renewing riding skills. Includes an informal classroom component for discussing safety concepts based on past riding experiences and current knowledge.
Here at Cascade Motorcycle Safety, we expect riders registering for the Basic RiderCourse 2 to either already have a permit, or possess permit level knowledge and riding experience.
This one-day course includes classroom instruction covering safety concepts based on past riding experiences and current knowledge.
The range exercises cover cornering, swerving, stopping, and hazard avoidance. WA 2 Wheel Motorcycle Endorsement Knowledge and Skills tests are included in this class.
The curriculum in the BRC2 for both the classroom segments, as well as the riding segments are some of the same segments from the Basic RiderCourse. If you have taken the BRC, this is an opportunity to further develop your riding skills, as well as gain a deeper understanding of the concepts presented.
A two hour MSF eCourse is included with enrollment, and completion is required in order to receive a course completion card. There will be a link to the eCourse at the top of your registration confirmation email.
While our staff will do as much as possible to help you learn to ride safely, we cannot guarantee that you will complete a course or pass any tests. A student may be dismissed from the course for a variety of reasons. Please review our polices and dismissal warnings below before registering for a course.
