North-central Indiana finds a new home for rider training

 

ABATE of Indiana and ITR Concession Company (ITRCC) - the operator of the Indiana Toll Road - are pleased to announce that we will be continuing a more than 40-year history of providing motorcycle safety training in north central Indiana.

 

ITRCC is to be commended for their dedication to traffic safety. Collaborations like this make Indiana roadways safer for everyone.

 

Studies indicate that 90% of riders involved in a crash were self-taught. Participating in a formal rider education program, such as the Basic Rider Skills course, provides the skills needed to better manage risks, thereby making motorcycling safer and more enjoyable. 

 

As a 501(c)(3), charitable, not-for-profit organization, ABATE of Indiana relies on the generosity and support of hosting facilities. ABATE is proud to partner with ITRCC to offer this invaluable, life-saving, community service.

Does Indianapolis have a location for classes?

  

We continue to search for a host location for our Indianapolis training site. If you have contact information for the manager or owner of a parking lot the size of a football field, please introduce us ASAP. As soon as we secure a facility, we will post a class schedule, so check the website frequently.
