For Fort Carson & military riders

Fort Carson: on-base class full?

The free motorcycle course on post is a great deal, but seats can be hard to get. We teach the same Basic Rider Course taught on base, with the same curriculum — so you can earn your waiver card and add the Colorado M endorsement without waiting for a base seat.

  • Same Basic Rider Course, same curriculum as the on-base class
  • Pass the course tests → waiver card for the Colorado DMV
  • Small, nearly new training bikes included
  • Weekend-friendly dates
Riding on post: check with your leadership about on-base riding requirements before you ride on base.

Don’t burn leave on a cancelled class

We teach even with one student. Your class won’t be cancelled for low enrollment — only for severe weather or emergencies — so you aren’t burning leave or vacation days on a class that disappears. That means less hassle for you and for your leadership and supervisors.

Why Fountain & Fort Carson riders choose us

1

We teach even with one student

No minimum roster. If you’re the only one enrolled, class still runs — we cancel only for rare severe weather or emergencies.

$

$395, bike included

Your course fee covers a training motorcycle plus both the state knowledge and skills tests. No bike rental add-on.

✓

Nearly new, small bikes

Light, late-model learner bikes (CFMoto Papio SS, Kawasaki Z125 Pro, Yamaha TW200, Honda XR150L). See the fleet.

☀

Year-round classes

Pueblo’s milder climate (warmer, with less snow than Colorado Springs or Denver) keeps training on the calendar every season.

Getting to Pueblo

From Fountain or Fort Carson, take I-25 south to Pueblo, then follow our driving instructions to the training range. It’s usually easier to drive to Pueblo rather than northern Colorado Springs. We email driving instructions with your state-required eCourse link after you book. Just bring your driver license.

Fountain & Fort Carson questions

Is this the same class as the on-base motorcycle course?
Yes. We teach the same Basic Rider Course taught on base, with the same curriculum. The free on-base class can be hard to get into — we have open dates in Pueblo. If you ride on post, check with your leadership about on-base riding requirements.
Will you cancel my class if enrollment is low?
No. We teach even with one student. We cancel only for severe weather or emergencies — so you aren’t burning leave or vacation days on a class that disappears because of student count. That also means less hassle for your leadership and supervisors.
I’m a civilian in Fountain. Is this a military-only class?
No. Anyone can take it. Fountain civilians and Fort Carson / military riders take the same Basic Rider Course — the military notes on this page are just for service members.
Do I need to check with my leadership before riding on post?
Yes — check with your leadership about on-base riding requirements. Our course gets you the waiver card for your Colorado M endorsement.
I took a Motorcycle Safety Foundation course on a base in another state. Do I need this class?
Maybe not. The Colorado DMV generally doesn’t accept out-of-state Motorcycle Safety Foundation cards, but it makes an exception for cards earned on a military base (with a valid military identification card). Check with the Colorado DMV first. If they won’t accept yours, our course is a quick path.
Do I need a permit or my own bike?
No permit is needed to take the class, and a training bike is included in the $395.
What if I get orders or a duty conflict?
Classes are non-refundable, but we’ll gladly reschedule. See the rescheduling policy (fees may apply within 72 hours of class).
Already ride a little?
Most Fountain and Fort Carson riders take the Basic Rider Course. If you already have clutch and low-speed skills, look at the one-day Basic Rider Course II. Not sure which class fits?
Do you offer a military discount?
Thank you for your service. We don’t typically extend discounts — we’re a small, family-owned business, and filling each seat is what keeps our doors open (and lets us run every class, even with one student). We work hard to make the $395 worth it: your training bike, both state tests, and two full days of coaching are all included.

Very competent and helpful instructor! Me and my friend took this class to a trip abroad and received very good instruction, tips and skills from the class! We were also given very realistic expectations due to weather.

Highly recommended. Shane is great! I did the 2 day course as a new rider and learned a lot. Felt really comfortable the whole time and development some good skills. Thank you so much. I had a great time and now have my motorcycle endorsement.

Great course, great instructor. I recommend even experienced riders take the full course. It's the same price and can perhaps give you a refresh and maybe teach you something that will save your life.

Took this course for our 10 year anniversary as a couple. I was so nervous going in with only dirtbike skills and little no street bike skills. Shane and Anna were amazing instructors with unlimited amounts of patience. They helped me take the time to get the skill I needed to pass the course. I would highly recommend them! Was worth evey penny and was such a special experience that I got to enjoy with my husband right with me. Thank you guys!
