  • Basic Rider Course (BRC) is an introductory course intended for a new rider with little or no experience (although some veteran riders have found that they learned more than expected). Motorcycles are provided for on-cycle training. Pre-approved participants are welcome to use their own street legal motorcycle/scooters (250cc or under) during the course. Graduates receive a waiver of any additional, Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicle, on-cycle license tests.
