BMW Off Road Training background

No matter whether you have had very little (or even none) off-road experience or have been dirt riding for years, the outcome is that everyone will learn a lot of new tricks and have a great time as well.
Courses started back in 2005 and each year the program has grown. For 2007 Sydney courses were added making the training available to more people than ever. All courses were fully booked, showing how much interest there is in the BMW Motorrad off road training programs.
All courses are conducted by BMW Motorrad’s Authorised Training Partner, Stay Upright Pty Ltd, which employs some of Australia’s best instructors.
