A.B.A.T.E. OF MINNESOTA YOUNG RIDERS
What is the Young Riders Program?
A.B.A.T.E. of Minnesota Young Riders is a program created to provide information and activities that interest young people. As a Young Rider, you will receive communication from our Young Riders program through electronic means that may be of interest to you. For more information, if you have any ideas or questions, please contact us at youngriders@abatemn.org
A.B.A.T.E. is currently funding a scholarship program to pay for the cost of attending rider training courses. These funds are limited and will be approved on application date and required criteria until all available scholarships have been awarded.
​
Why should you consider taking a rider training course? We believe that continued motorcycle training is key to building the proper foundation of good riding habits and better rider skills to create the best overall motorcycling experience. Taking annual training courses is key to refreshing your skills, maintaining your riding ability, and improving your overall skillset.
​
What better investment can you make than yourself? What better payoff can you have than attending a free rider training event while possibly earning your motorcycle permit or endorsement?
