Around 20 KTM punters braved a southeast Queensland heatwave in the hope of learning more about adventure-riding techniques and handling big bikes. Not one was disappointed. International competitor Chris Birch and Maschine’s Nick Selleck made sure of it. Photographer – and KTM owner – Danny Wilkinson was grinning along with everyone else.
Something for everyone
Keiran Holcombe had pulled his big V-Twin 950 out of semi-retirement to attend the KTM Training school and indulge in a couple of nights camping for his 30th birthday. Married with a couple of young children, Keiran was keen to learn some new skills on the big bike and his wife thought the course would give added peace of mind when he ventured out in future.
That’s the great thing about the adventure training courses offered by KTM Australia. It doesn’t matter whether you aspire to defy gravity with Chris Birch-styled antics or gain some confidence for a maiden journey into the unknown, there’s a huge amount to be learned in a nonintimidating environment.
