2008 Police Motorcycle Training Events

The skills that are required to be a safe and proficient police motorcycle officer constantly need refinement and improvement. Besides riding often, one of the best ways to increase ones skills is to attend a police motorcycle skills competition, otherwise known as police motorcycle rodeos. There are over 20 events held throughout the US and Canada every year. Below are the ones of which Setcom is aware. If there is one that isn't listed below, and we'll post here.

Please us results and pictures from your local training event. We'll post them for all to see!
