The IRT is NOT a Learn to Ride Course. This is an eight hour class designed for the rider who has ridden for at least a year, has a good degree of knowledge & experience, as well as for the transition from dirt to street rider. MOTORCYCLES ARE PROVIDED FOR THIS CLASS! Riders must be able to ride a motorcycle, riders who are not able to ride will be dismissed from class with no refund and must register for Basic Riders Course.
This class includes the Endorsement Written Test as well as the Endorsement Skills Test. Prior to attending this class- you must complete the Permit Written Test and the Permit Skills Test. WA State requires that riders must complete all 4 tests in order to get their endorsement. You can complete the permit testing portion by either attending a Basic Rider Course, or by attending one of our scheduled Permit Testing Sessions. Please see the DOL Permit Testing tab to register.
Under 18 year olds- to complete the Permit portion, under 18 year olds can either just come and do permit testing or take a Basic Rider Course, but to complete the Endorsement they must take an Intermediate Riders Course.
