ABATE of Indiana’s Off-Road Training (ORT) course was designed specifically to meet the needs of Hoosier off-road riders. The development team has more than 100 years of collective experience in off-roading and rider education. While the basic course is intended to be an entry-level class, experienced riders are often surprised by how much they learn.

The “hands-on” class devotes the entire time to practicing and actually riding the motorcycles. At the end of the course, students should understand the skills and techniques necessary to stay safe, act responsibly, and have fun while riding off-road motorcycles.

Open to children as young as 6 years old
Since children as young as 6 can enroll, our off-road training offers the entire family an opportunity to participate in this exciting learning experience.
