“I’ll just teach myself in a car park.”

You might be able to teach yourself to get a bike moving. But learning to stop, steer and control it properly is where things get harder—and a car park won’t tell you when you’re developing unsafe habits.
On a controlled training range, you’ll learn at low speed on a motorcycle suited to beginners, with an experienced instructor watching your technique and giving feedback you simply can’t get by yourself.

Bike, helmet and gloves included. All you need is a willingness to learn.

The most common question we get: how long until I can actually ride?

1. Learner course. One or two days on a closed range.
2. Ride on your learner licence. Build real hours on a LAMS-approved bike.
3. Provisional course or test. Then keep training as you go.

The exact steps, minimum holding periods and wait times are set by your own road authority, so check what applies where you live. We will tell you exactly what your state needs when you book.

Certificates in hand at Clyde. Congratulations to instructor Dan's group, including Harriet and Kun.

Every one of them turned up, put the hours in on the range and earned it. That piece of paper is the start of the riding, not the end of the learning.

Ride well, and we will see you back for the next one.

Day 1 Learners at Rouse Hill, with trainer Glenn keeping the mood exactly where it should be.

Nobody turns up on day one knowing how to do it all. That is the whole point. You start on a closed range, on a bike that suits a beginner, with a trainer beside you and no traffic anywhere near you. Bike, helmet and gloves are included, so all you need to bring is yourself.

By the end of the day you will have started the bike, moved off, changed gears, stopped and turned. Not perfectly. Just properly. Book via the link in bio.

Coming back to riding after a long break is not the same as never having ridden. It is its own thing. The licence is still there, but the reflexes are rusty, the bikes have changed and the traffic is heavier than you remember.

A refresher session puts you back on a bike in a controlled environment, with an accredited coach, before you rejoin the traffic. Book via the link in bio.

Fatigue does not announce itself. It shows up as slower decisions, missed hazards and a rougher ride.

• Plan your rest stops before you leave, not once you start fading.
• Stop every couple of hours, even if you feel fine.
• Eat, drink and get out of the weather at each break.
• If your concentration starts slipping, stop. The rest of the ride will still be there.

Wind, noise and vibration tire you faster on a bike than in a car. Plan for it.

Following our recent post about the passing of our founder, Warwick Schuberg, we wanted to share an update for those who would like to join us in farewelling Warwick.

Warwick's funeral service will be held at 1pm this Friday, 28 August in the Magnolia Chapel, Macquarie Park Cemetery and Crematorium. The funeral service will be available via livestream for those who are unable to attend in person.

We know Warwick touched the lives of so many people throughout his decades in the motorcycle and rider training community, and we would like those who knew him, worked with him, or simply wish to pay their respects to have the opportunity to join the service.

If you would like to receive the livestream details, please email [email protected] and our team will provide these to you.

We know many people will be joining Warwick's family, friends and the Stay Upright community on Friday as we remember him, celebrate his life and farewell a man who leaves an extraordinary legacy.

Your helmet is the one piece of gear you cannot afford to get wrong.

• Check that it meets an approved helmet standard and carries the correct compliance mark. It could be an Australian or European standard helmet.
• It should be snug all round, with no movement when you shake your head.
• Inspect the shell, visor, liner and strap for damage or wear.
• Replace it after any impact, even if there is no visible damage.

We supply a helmet, motorcycle and gloves for our courses, so you can start learning before investing in your own riding gear.

Riding at night removes most of the visual information you rely on during the day.

• Reduce your speed so you can always stop within the distance you can see.
• Use high beam where it is safe and legal, and dip early for oncoming traffic.
• Watch for wildlife, debris and unlit hazards, particularly on the shoulder.
• Clean your visor and headlight before you set off. A smeared visor turns every headlight into glare.

Ride to what you can see, not to what you expect to be there.

Lane filtering is one of the most misunderstood rules in motorcycling, and the requirements are not the same everywhere.

Broadly, lane filtering means moving at low speed between stopped or slow-moving vehicles travelling in the same direction. Where it is permitted, it usually comes with conditions covering the maximum speed, the licence classes allowed to do it, and the locations where it is not permitted at all, such as school zones and next to parked cars.

Lane filtering is also prohibited next to kerbs or parked vehicles and in school zones. Rules vary across Australia, so always check the current requirements where you ride.

Check the rules published by your own road authority before you filter:

• NSW: Transport for NSW
• VIC: VicRoads
• QLD: TMR
• ACT: Access Canberra
• TAS: Transport Tasmania

And regardless of what the rule allows, only filter when you can see it is safe to do so.
