I have a update for everyone. I had to find a new location for the Prorider classes this year and I wasn't sure that I had many options but then the Harley Riding Academy manager for No Cages Harley Davidson offered me use of their range when they are not using it. Wow, I cannot thank Vickey and No Cages enough for the fantastic support and commitment to help riders become safer riders. Here are the dates for the classes at the No Cages range.
June 14, July 19, Sep 13, and Oct 4. These will be the Precision & Control class and the will go from 10AM to 2PM. The classes will be available to book this weekend so please go to Proridercolumbus.com to book a class! Come on out to improve your skills and lets learn together!!

Hey Columbus Ohio riders, this is Mike at Prorider Columbus. I hope many of you are thinking about learning some new rider best practices this year. I have had a few people book classes already and I want to say thank you for booking early and trusting me with your advanced rider training in 2025!! The first Precision & Control class of the year is April 26th. I only have 5 classes I am offering this year and I only take 6 riders per class, so please don't wait too long to book a class this year. Also, I will only be offering 4 private classes this year. If you think you may want a private class reach out to me ASAP so we can find a date. I know that a private class can seem like the best way to go but I can promise you when you are riding with 5 other riders on the range it is a lot more fun and you learn so much more from watching each other throughout the day. Please reach out to me with questions. The website is Proridercolumbus.com or call at 614-779-1547. You can PM me here too. Thanks

Hey riders. I'm thankful for all of you that have let me coach you over the last 4 years at Prorider Columbus. I will be posting the dates for the 2025 riding season tomorrow on the Proridercolumbus.com website and hope you will consider booking a class to work on improving your riding skills this year. Some of you may not be aware that I have a regular 40 hour a week career in aviation and a growing family. I own and coach Prorider classes on weekends by myself out of a passion to help others become more confident and safer riders and I really enjoy doing it. With that said I am planning on this year being my last year owning Prorider Columbus and coaching classes so I can focus more on my career and family. If any of you think you might have a desire to own Prorider Columbus and teach Prorider classes please reach out to me. I will let you know up front that it takes a lot of practice and effort but it is very satisfying to help others. At this point I am only offering 4 group classes this year but I will still offer a few private classes if and when I can this year. Thank you again for your support the last 4 years and I hope to meet you on the range this year!!
Here are the dates that will be posted tomorrow evening on the website; Saturday April 26th, May 17th, June 21st and Sep 13th.

We have had a few riders the last few weeks learning how to be in control of their motorcycle. I have nothing but admiration for these guys. They came to learn and work at becoming better, safer riders! I want to thank Tom, Mike, Rod, Travis and Dave for allowing me to coach you and learn with you on the Prorider Columbus range. Thanks for being willing to let go of your old "best practices" and learning some new "best practices!!" You don't know what you don't know until you try something new.

Ben Simpson and myself had a great weekend at Prorider Columbus with Stan and Scott. We coached them through the Precision & Control Course and the Defensive Rider Course! They are very accomplished riders who train and practice regularly and it was fun learning with them. As you can see, Prorider courses are not just for old people on Harleys!!
