OFF-ROAD TRAINING IN BOISE, IDAHO
3 stages - 250 miles
1/3 • Training
Your journey begins at our host hotel with a coffee meet-and-greet with your fellow riders. Your Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 motorcycles will be waiting for you at the hotel. There will be a group ride to our private training facility, followed by a full day of hands-on training. Our expert instructors will guide you through essential techniques, including:
- Body positioning for control and balance
- Braking and throttle control on loose surfaces
- Slow-speed maneuvers and hill climbs
- Emergency stopping and obstacle negotiation
The day is intense yet rewarding. There will be a break for lunch, with a group dinner following the training day. The evening is yours to explore Boise’s vibrant downtown.
Training on Private Land
2/3 • Trail riding through southern Idaho
After breakfast (included), we hit the trails to apply what we learned. Depending on the season, today’s ride may take us through the stunning hills surrounding, where we’ll encounter winding forest tracks, with a few paved sections linking quaint historic mining towns. Or perhaps we will explore the high desert, with unique challenges including rocky trails and traversing hills. Wherever our ride takes us, we will make stops along the way for photos, snacks, and skills coaching.
Lunch is enjoyed at a scenic rest stop before continuing the adventure deeper into Idaho’s off-road network. We return to our hotel for an evening debrief and a chance to share stories over dinner.
125 miles
3/3 • Boise area trail riding & Final Challenges
We begin the final day with a review of key techniques, followed by an exhilarating ride along some of southern Idaho’s best intermediate trails. Today’s route puts your new skills to the test with new challenges on new trails.
A picnic lunch is enjoyed along the trail (included). By the afternoon, you’ll tackle obstacles that seemed impossible just two days ago. We conclude the tour back at the hotel with a final debrief before departure.
