I'm working on compiling a list of available training that isn't limited by things like, "Is it MSF?" While this site is primarily intended for interaction between those of us who teach an MSF-based program, and MSF lists those places teaching MSF-based classes on their site, there ARE other programs out there, and MSF isn't in every state... The idea is that, if someone is looking for motorcycle training of any type, they can pull up a page that shows what's available, from basic training through racing schools, with links to reach the people with additional information. What I have so far is posted as a static web page over at http://motorcycletrainers.org/ .

If anyone has additional links and information they want to pass along, I'd appreciate it... And that's why I'm posting this topic here. While it is fascinating to read through the hundreds of web pages detailing what this or that school offers, I've only got so many hours in the day to do non-work things, and I'd like to spend some of them riding, sleeping, or otherwise not in front of a computer.... :wink:

For things like track schools, please list what states and (preferably) tracks they run classes at, if more than one. If there are any special things about the particular program, such as "low cost/free to residents", "only offers basic instruction", or "offers individual training", please include that with the other information.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info. His website doesn't say whether or not his MSF classes are qualified for license waiver or military, but I'll assume they are, for the database.

Ah, "upon further review", I found you can get a lot more information out of Mark's site. Whoever did his web design needs to be beat with a clue bat - they've made some very basic, and wide-spread, mistakes, which make links not work, and many important graphics not accessible. But, parts of it were done in Microsoft Word, so, "stuff happens"...

Thanks again for the link!
