State Requires Motorcycle Training

Rider Training instructor, Barb Fincher, works with a pair of students during a basic rider course last week at Westside Motorsports. In August, Washington state turned over motorcycle training and testing responsibilities to private vendors like Westside at 4201 S. Grove Road. Previously, Westside was a training facility but not a test site. In addition, the state is implementing a more stringent test based on findings from the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. Story here .
