Training is one of the best things you can do for yourself, as well as other motorists on the road. According to the AMA, riders who take motorcycling seriously, ride legally, ride sober, and try to continuously improve their riding skills are more likely to have long and happy riding careers. Here are some key resources for motorcycle training:

• Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) Motorcycle Safety Program provides Basic RiderCourse (BRC) and Experienced RiderCourse (ERC) motorcycle rider training, plus other motorcycle safety-related resources. For more information, see http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/safety/vehicle/motorcycle.
• Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) provides motorcycle safety-related curricula and training resources. For more information, see www.msf-usa.org.
• The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) is dedicated to pursuing, protecting and promoting the interests of the world's largest and most dedicated group of motorcycle enthusiasts. For more information, see www.AMADirectlink.com.
