Glen Oaks to host motorcycle training course

Glen Oaks Community College, the new regional host site for the State Motorcycle Safety Training course, has announced details of its upcoming session.

For bikers to receive a motorcycle endorsement in Michigan, they are required to complete a basic-skills course. The course has most recently been held at Sturgis Middle School.

Paul Aivars, Glen Oaks director of business outreach, said riding sessions require participants to practice basic controls including clutch-and-throttle coordination, straight-line riding, stopping, turning and shifting.

Basic rider classes are offered in one day, either on a Saturday or Sunday. Range instruction takes place on a Saturday or Sunday using the program-provided training motorcycles.

Registration for the Motorcycle Safety program takes place in the early spring and due to the high demand, the program fills up quickly.
