Application Information
Each spring (shortly after March 21st), those on our mailing list will be mailed course information, including a schedule of class dates/locations, prices and an enrollment application. Having your name on the Rider-Ed mailing list doesn't guarantee you will be able to enroll in a class, due to a limited number of spaces.
To have your name added to our mailing list, contact us either by phone or email between January 1st and March 21st.
To be considered for a class with MREM you must mail in an application or submit an application online!
Other Important Information
Attendance: Students must attend all sessions and complete all requirements set forth by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) in order to obtain a completion card. Successful completion of the written test and skill evaluation qualifies the beginner student for a waiver of the State's road testPhysical ability: Great physical strength is not necessary for the beginner course, but a good sense of balance and coordination are essential! If you are unable to ride a bicycle, you may have a great deal of difficulty learning to ride a motorcycle. For the protection of all concerned, we reserve the fight to suspend anyone from riding activities if, in our opinion, they can't control a motorcycle.
