Performance Rider Education

Advanced Rider Training

Advanced Rider Training

The UtahSBA keystone element is our Advanced Rider Training programs. Our ART schools allow riders of all skill levels to learn basic and advanced sport riding skills in a safe and controlled environment. Our primary facility is the extremely technical Kart track at Miller Motor Sports Park. Schools are taught on the smaller course, where mistakes cause less damage and very rarely result in injury. However, we also provide the occasional Super-ART on one of the larger tracks at MMP where speeds are greater.

Our Advanced Rider Training programs are non-competitive, track-based curriculums that teach motorcycle control, proficiency and smoothness by providing lots of hands-on track time and high-quality, individual instruction at the lowest possible price. The UtahSBA is a not-for-profit organization that subsidies the prices of all of our programs through volunteer efforts from our membership.
