Master Trainer Training

Dave Millier of Adventure Routes Canada (formerly Motorcyclists Confederation of Canada) provided advanced training to our four newly certified Master Trainers. The course material was exceptionally well designed and demonstrated an impressive depth of knowledge by the program’s authors. The MCC Off-Road Motorcycling 101 training program is specifically designed to give students who wish to ride off-road motorcycles the knowledge and skills to do so safely and responsibly.

Program Highlights:

Insightful Instruction: Prospective coaches are guided with practical tips and techniques drawn from many combined years of hands-on riding and formal training experience. All master trainers are true enthusiasts with decades of off-road riding experience.

A Lesson-Based Approach: The philosophy of “There are no mistakes, only lessons” encourages growth and confidence.

Problem-Based Learning: Challenges are presented, then discussed as a group, creating an effective and engaging way to develop and present solutions.

Positive Learning Environment: A supportive atmosphere focused on continuous improvement.

Ongoing Education: Annual formal training ensures coaches stay current and continue developing their skills.

Strong Presentation Skills: The program emphasizes clear and effective instruction.

The final portion of the training was hands-on at our training school, located on land generously provided by a dedicated dirt bike enthusiast, Brent Pottle, owner of Kynock Resources. Our student coach, Brennan Foote, allowed our four master trainers to demonstrate and hone their training skills.

With the management of Motorcycling 101 now in transition, Dave has helped ensure a stronger and more secure future for our program.

NSORRA is proud to announce that Steve Smith, Josh Kelly, Mike Ritter, and Neil Jennings are now certified Master Trainers. They are officially authorized to train and certify new coaches throughout the province, greatly expanding our ability to provide high-quality training to current and future offroad dirt bikers.
