T.E.X.A.S. Motorcycle Academy
The motorcycle academy will be offering free training for individuals who own and are operating a motorcycle. The trainings will be held at various locations in Victoria, Harris, Bexar and Nueces County. The trainings will be mostly slow speed skills to prepare for future sanctioned racing events.
We encourage riders to obtain a motorcycle endorsement. Currently the State of Texas only has one path to an M endorsement. We would like to see this expanded. We currently have a plan in place, but need your help to send a message to your local Texas House of Representative. Please copy and paste this letter and send to your representative.
