We are SUPER excited to partner with the folks at the BMW Performance Center US Rider Academy, to offer our customers great deals (15% discount) on some world class training, and the opportunity to host your training experience! One of our staff will accompany each group in Spartanburg for the sessions offered, and join you in the experience!

We need a minimum of 4 customers per session to get the discounts, shown below with the course descriptions. Please RSVP (greg.north@bmw-ducati.com) and let me know what course and date you would like to participate in. Having previously been involved in the training segment, I strongly encourage the use of academy bikes, especially for the OFF ROAD courses - not worrying about dropping your own bike will make a HUGE difference in your learning experience.

In addition, BMW Performance Center US Rider Academy is holding an Open House on April 15 - and from what I'm hearing from the inside, there is going to be a ton of super cool stuff going on! I'll be organizing a small group to enjoy some back roads on the way down for the day, drop me a line if you're interested in joining me.

I'm putting a Feb 6th cut off date on this program, so if you want in, please let me know in the next week.

I will put something like this together again for some fall dates, so you will have another chance to take advantage should you miss this round!
