Level 1

March 15-17

Level 1 Beginner Training

Off-road skills don’t happen overnight.  We want you to feel comfortable when you transition from the pavement to the dirt, and our training will help you build the finesse required to adventure ride safely.  Breaking down each movement into easy-to-understand steps is the key to our training.  The Triple Threat—or clutch, brake, and throttle—is one example of our focus on the fundamentals of controlling the motorcycle at slow speeds.  By re-learning how to precisely control the actions of clutching, braking, and throttling, you’ll maximize your riding capability using this core principle.  The Triple Threat is the backbone of our training program, and it carries over into every exercise we do. One thing is for sure…you will have a lot more confidence, the necessary tools, and refined skills to help you “Ride your Ride.”

I had a great time. The off-road riding in general was easier than I expected, faster and flowing, but extremely fun. We did get into some more technical terrain which is what I was expecting which was extremely fun. There was a nice variety. The lodging accommodations and restaurants were excellent. The routes were great as was the support.

This was my 3rd event with Dusty and West38 Moto. Dusty and Kelly were outstanding to work with, as they always are. Dusty is genuinely concerned with the success of his students and his ability to translate concepts is top notch. I’m looking forward to training and touring with West38 Moto in the very near future.

I would call this tour an expedition! It was physically and mentally challenging and I loved every minute of it. The friendships that have been formed and the camaraderie with the group was definitely one of the highlights of the trip. I had very low expectations regarding the accommodations on this trip (It is Baja and very 3rd world down there). With that said all of the hotels were at least clean and doable, and there was one location that was off the charts amazing. It was just all part of the Baja experience. I wasn't there for the accommodations I was there for the riding and friendships. The riding did not disappoint, it was some of the best and most challenging riding I have encountered. The tour leaders were great and did a fantastic job scouting everything out. If you are into challenging riding and meeting some amazing people I would highly recommend a tour in Baja. I will definitely be going back.

Dusty and crew know Baja like no one else, great trip.

Dusty is a gifted teacher and an all around great guy.. His team is wonderful as well. Each location offers different challenges and opportunities to learn new skills, so many people like me take courses in different states. I can’t wait to learn more at my next class.

Amazing class. I had Dusty and Matt for my adv training. I'd originally signed up for level 1 but Dusty helped sort me into the Level 2 group which we agreed was more appropriate and my best learning environment. Dusty is fantastic instructor and was as attentive and knowledgeable. When asked a question you can tell you get Dusty's full attention, he stops whatever he is doing and focuses completely on you and your needs providing thoughtful and thorough answers. Matt as well provided very insightful alternative comments and helped setup the drills while providing a different take and personal experience to each lesson. The class was completely safe and done professionally with highest regard to student learning and safety. I wouldn't hesitate to send anyone to this class beginner or advanced. You will learn and have fun here. During a 1 day ride post-class, when the trail got tougher than expected, I never doubted the Dusty had the ability and knowledge to handle any situation adventure could throw at us. Which it did with tough trails, medical issues, heat related dangers, etc. in the AZ desert. Dusty had my complete trust not only in my personal safety but in the techniques he was teaching and I have very high standards. If you are new to a adv class then this is perfect and you will be handled with white gloves and learn everything you need to be a better safer rider. If you are an advanced rider then you will dial in your techniques with the their teachings and become an even more competent rider. I have nothing negative to say about the training or class. Great job and I will be doing a BDR with Dusty and\or Matt soon and looking forward to the experience. I have no doubt I will continue to sign up for training, BDRs, and anything else West38moto has to offer as my funds and time allow for years to come. Thanks Matt and Dusty, looking forward to riding again with you.
