ADVENTURE MOTORCYCLE TRAINING WITH BRET TKACS
Bret Tkacs is a professional motorcycle training instructor specializing in technical ADV and dual-sport rider education. He teaches adventure motorcycle riders how to ride smarter, safer, and with more confidence, whether it’s through ADV training camps, live presentations, video lessons, or touring with clients internationally.
From beginner skills to highly advanced techniques that make you faster and better, Bret’s approach blends physics-based instruction with decades of experience.
TRAIN THE WAY YOU NATURALLY LEARN
We don’t teach in lines. We don’t make everyone tackle the exact same obstacle. We meet you exactly where you are: whether your tires have never touched gravel or you’ve been riding off-road for years. Then we build your skills from there.
Forget everything you know (or think you know) about motorcycle training. When you train with Bret, you work on terrain matched to your ability. Complete beginners might conquer their first hill on a moderate slope. Experienced riders can push their limits on steep technical climbs. It’s the same class with different challenges, but gives each person real progress.
Our only prerequisites? A willingness to learn and proper protective gear. Everything else, we handle.
"I recently attended the ADV training class in Greenville, VA. I pushed myself hard in a VERY accepting environment to failure. No pressure from others waiting for you to complete a task as the ride area was wide open and more often than not, everyone could practice at once. Bret & Paul were always at the ready to help in any way. The curriculum, instructors, facility, and attendees made it one of the best weekends on two wheels. I highly recommend it!"
