She ADV
Empowering Women Riders
SheADV Women’s Only Adventure Rider Training
SheADV is offering 4-hour training sessions, so you can enjoy other things the rally has to offer. So, we have broken up the Level 1 and Level 2 classes into 2 Parts. Join Lead Off-Street Instructor Shal Wilson and her team, for half day skill building sessions that will move you through your fears to mastering skills with finesse and confidence. Learn a commonsense approach to mastering your bike so you can manage the terrain you’ll encounter in the backcountry and become the rider you want to be. We find that most riders benefit from taking the Level 1 class either as a first timer or using the class as a refresher. Then we will kick it up a notch with the Level 2 classes.
BYOB…Bring your own Bike. All sizes of off-street worthy motorcycles are welcome.
These classes are appropriate for beginner and intermediate off-street riders.

This is a tentative plan and will be confirmed as time gets closer. The plan is to depart the rally grounds following the morning training session and take to one of the routes in the Leavenworth area for Immersion Training to be done along the way. The tour will be self-supported. It’s an opportunity for us to provide assistance as needed and to give back and support women riding in the backcountry. We will camp out on the route.
