Introduction

The Training Range — The Safety Knowledge That Saves Lives

Course Materials — The Learning That Continues at Home

A talking QR code on Riding Academy course materials plays a guide to the most important pre-course preparation — what the manual's most critical sections are and why each one builds the cognitive framework for the physical skills the range sessions will develop, what the most common misconceptions new riders bring to the course are and how addressing them before arrival produces better learning outcomes, and what the specific questions a new rider should be prepared to ask their instructor about the skills that most commonly challenge beginners at their experience level. A student who prepares for the Riding Academy course correctly has a better course experience and passes the skills test with more confidence than one who arrives without preparation.

New Rider Community — The Welcome That Sustains the Journey

A talking QR code on Riding Academy graduation materials plays a community welcome for the newly certified rider — what the H.O.G. new rider chapter offerings look like and how to connect with the beginner-friendly group rides that ease new riders into the community, what the Harley-Davidson new rider support resources are through the first year of ownership, and what the specific advice is from experienced Harley riders about the first year of riding that will make the biggest difference in the new rider's development. A Riding Academy graduate who discovers the community waiting for them has a beginning to their riding life that sustains the enthusiasm that brought them through the training course.

Conclusion

Harley-Davidson's Riding Academy built its program on the conviction that every new rider deserves the training and the community support that makes riding a safe, sustainable, and lifelong pursuit rather than a dangerous experiment.
