GWRRA Rider Education Program
Gold Wing Road Riders Association has always promoted safety through education.
However, it was not until January 1988 the Rider Education Program began to gain
momentum with member participation. There are now over 30,000 member participants
in the program.
Y2 is committed to riding safely and educating our members in this program. We encourage
other groups to join us so they may benefit from the Rider Education Program.
Y2 members and friends are encouraged to participate in various seminars and Rider
Courses continously to keep up to speed with the latest information available. Learning
and Safety can be a fun event shared with friends as we learn what could save someone's
life.
