    Aaron Rankin

    Aaron Rankin’s students range from law enforcement officers to racecar drivers. His goal is to help riders develop confidence in their abilities and achieve a feeling of accomplishment, all with an emphasis on safety – both theirs and others. “It is not the speed that gets you. It’s the sudden stop that hurts!” But no matter how advanced the bike or experienced the rider, “You can never receive too much training. Sign up for classes, trust what the instructor tells you and always practice!”

    Ricardo Rodriguez

    A motorcycle rider since the age of 7, Ricardo Rodriguez’s twin passions are bikes and teaching. For many years, this BMW Rider Academy pro has given riding confidence to everyone from police to teens, both here in the U.S. and abroad. Emergency Braking (with and without ABS and traction control), Avoidance and Tight Circles are his favorite exercises; rider safety is his major concern. Advice to new riders? “Always look where you want to go, and be as smooth as possible with your controls.”

    Richard Few

    A rider since the age of 17 with 12 podium finishes in Motocross racing, Richard Few knows his way around a track. He also knows how students have different needs and wants, and adapts instruction techniques to each individual. Students are challenged to be open-minded and expect the unexpected; an easy way to get them to learn and change their riding behavior is the Washboards and Ruts exercise. His advice: “Stay within your limits until they are broadened by proper practice and training.”
