The blog post where I go into detail on my experience is here - adamchandler.me/blog/2021/04/19/my-bike-a-weekend-at-bmws-performance-center-moa-premiere-training-2021/
The "Enduro Park" is so perfect to improve your riding skills. The instructors are so qualified and fun to be with. And the track is also fun to open up on it! Good job Adam!
I liked the tree course. You could make it really hard or easier just by going between every other tree. lots of chances for slow speed balance maneuvers.
Great capture of the Experience, Adam!! I had a blast and left with some new skills and enjoyed meeting you and the rest of the Crew that weekend.....If only there had been.....Pie!! :)
Thanks for watching! Sorry it was so long. I got it from 3 hours of video down to 30 minutes. I thought of making it 2 videos but it just flowed better to have just one.
@@AdamChandler86 Yes sir. Was going to do just the 1 day but I decided to do the 2 day. I figured the 1 day was just the same as day 1 of the 2 day. It'll be cheaper in the long way. Plus I get to drop their bike instead of mine lol
This is common on any training from BMW GS Certified trainers. Mirrors are removed for obvious reasons, windshields, this is only my guess and not backed up but I'll be sure to ask next time I see a trainer in person. First, if you roll the bike over, it'll mostly be fine but the windscreen won't so keeping it off is a good way to let the bike roll without issue. Second, off road, windscreens will hit you square in the nose if you're standing and hit a hard force that throws you forward. I broke my nose once riding ATV trails and falling into a rut and flying off the bike and it was a bloody mess.
Thank you for the video, it's a better explanation of what to expect than any of their marketing material. What kind of gear were people wearing? I'm going for the 2 day course in February and am already making a packing list :-). Does it look like motorcross boots and a basic textile suit would do the trick?
I appreciate you taking time to watch it. I was going to make it 2 parts but things flowed together as one and those about to spend $1000 on training might enjoy 20-25 minutes showcasing what that training was like.
MOA's "Premiere Training" comes out every April and they usually offer 6 dates and they usually sell out in a week. It's just such an incredible value and is only open to members but the performance center does 1-2 day trainings every week so you can always call directly and book something, it just won't come with hotel, dinner, etc.

Never a bad time for pie!
Thanks for taking us along Adam! Looks like an absolute blast!
Thanks Jonathan. I try to do at least one training every year and usually early in the year to hone in the skills and break up the cobwebs.
Seems like a lots of fun Adam.... lucky you!!!
It was a fantastic time. I learned a lot.
This looks like a lot of fun. I would have definitely been letting up on the right left turns.
Really good vid Adam enjoyed that one !! 👍🍻
I appreciate you taking time to watch it!

Awesome! I'll watch this later. I will be going June 26th and 27th this year.
Nice! Looks like your'e going to the 2-day off road school? That means you'll get to do the sand & grave pits. JEALOUS!

Great video!
Excellent post Adam. Will re-watch for sure. This is now on my to-do list Hopefully for the fall 2021.
Let me know what day you go down. I may be going back for a private lesson before the GS Trophy Qualifier.
Awesome video ! Thank you .
Thanks for watching!
awesome! Thanks
Thanks for the great video! One question: why did the machines have no windshields?

Have a great time. You have to cover everything and wear a helmet. Dress more for the climate than a standard touring get-up.
Thank you, that's good information. I'm excited about the course!
hey Adam Seriously thanks so much for this. That training is something i deeply want to attend. Now more than ever. #makelifearide

Nice one Adam :-)
Seems like an awesome event to go Adam. Is this for all MOA members? Anyone can participate?
