Hi I may be interested. If I can’t swing it, this year, maybe next year. Does the $800 fee include the $300 that we raise? Also, I see you are based in LeRoy NY. Do you do any rides/programs locally? I’m in Springville NY. My name’s Danielle Fallon. (716)860-5525
I assume you saw a Facebook advertisement and were responding to it. That’s great! The $800 is your cost for the training. You agree to raise an additional $300 or more for our charities. This is our first camp that we are doing with this program. We are expecting to do many more of these in the future but we don’t have all of the locations pinned down. If you are interested, I would suggest you join our mailing list!

I can’t this year. But I just got done with an ADV course where I was the only woman, and I would *really* like to do this event with all women!
Please sign up for our mailing list then! We’ll be doing more of these in the future!
FYI: DIRTY for GOOD’s $800 registration includes much more than just training. The $800.00 also covers meals, camping space, event shirt and seminars. We even have tents to loan. The training on day one involves basic skills development and honing. Days 2-4 involves being out on trails with the instructors providing situational trail training for myriad scenarios one encounters while dual sport riding. Participants also get the gps routes to use for their own return dual sport riding trips to the area.
Hope this clarifies what you get for your investment in yourselves for the safe enjoyment of dual sport riding.
Do you need any instructors?
Jon Rathbone
Sorry for the delay! It is our intention, in 2020 and going forward, to use strictly female instructors.
Thank you for your interest and we hope you can send some women our way!
Is this suitable for new-ish riders, and is there a dual sport bike still available? This would be my first training camp.
Our 2019 was appropriate for new riders. In 2020 we are focusing on a training around the North East Backcountry Discovery Route and that would be for more advanced riders.
After that, our training will go back to offerings that are well-suited to new riders.
Patricia,
Not sure where you live, but I am leaving my email address for you. There is a two-day Women’s off-road program June 26-28, 2020 in Tamaqua, PA. There will be dirt bike MSF Training available. There will also be some rental bikes available as well. These course would be appropriate for a newer rider.
