As a newbie or a pro, we are all working on the same skills; better balance, traction management, vision and strategy. The ADV camp methodically builds your skills by carefully layering each new piece of knowledge and motor skill to rapidly advance your offroad riding. While teaching, we focus on reducing the risk to rider and machine during the learning process while enhancing the thrill of riding.

Cancellations typically occur when a rider suffers an injury prior to the class start date. In these situations, we seldom have enough time to sell your spot and are unable to issue a credit or refund. This is due to the considerable amount of time and money invested into preparing your event - transporting equipment cross-country, flights, lodging, food, and transport for instructors & staff, renting property, ordering food, etc. as well as a limited number of training spots, a short training season, and our goal to keep tuition low by minimizing profit margins.
Please consider purchasing tuition protection insurance (through us upon registration) or trip insurance (Travelex, Allianz, Travel Insurance Services, or any other) if you cannot afford the loss of your tuition in the rare case you are not able to attend.
Sunday school is all about mastering trail strategies while putting your newly polished riding skills to use during a 4-5 hour ride on Sunday. This optional add-on is not just going for a ride, but is an intense full day of learning critical ADV riding strategies, developing road reading skills, and polishing your skills from the previous days in a real life environment.
Protect your tuition from unexpected cancellation due to personal injury, illness or accident that prevents you from attending. More info.
Camping and training are both on family-owned property located in Plain, at the site of the annual Touratech Rally West. At this location, you will either have the choice of staying in nearby cabins or on a grassy field where you can pitch your tent or park your RV or campervan.
Arrival time begins at 3:00pm on Thursday afternoon. If you’re planning on camping, you will have ample time to set up your tent and get acquainted with your fellow participants and training staff.
Around 6:30pm or dusk, Bret and Paul will gather everyone around a fire (if possible, based on regulations) for introductions and to learn what specific skills attendees want to learn.
