The course Lynda and I attended was 30 hours long and we had excellant instruction. Even after decades of riding I did learned quite a bit which translates into more skill and confidence. This also gave Lynda as a new rider the time and practice to overcome any fears about not being able to ride safely. She has become an excellant rider and enjoys the freedom of 2 wheels instead of a cage.
I am sorry for Alan who didn't get much from his riding course. But it was not a total lose I am sure.

The class Alan and I took was 4 hours of classroom the 1st night, and 6 hours (approx) each on a Saturday and Sunday morning. Dang thing cost $250 too (aye, there's the rub). Yours would've cost $468.75 at that rate.
