Its no wonder Erik became a RiderCoach...he comes from a family of educators. His father a college professor at Miami Dade College for over 30 years, his mother, an equestrian trainer providing horseback riding lessons since before his arrival, and his stepfather a California high school teacher. Erik is a true motorcycle enthusiast. Having started out on dirtbikes and atv's, he has owned everything from a Honda CBR to a Ducati 996 to a Honda Goldwing to a Yamaha Roadstar Warrior. A member of the American Motorcycle Association, and a Championship Cup Series Racer, he's currently working on developing a course for advanced riders! He currently owns a Kawasaki ZX-14.
Skip Duby - Voted #1 RiderCoach for 2009
Having raced cars on the track, and ridden motorcycles for over 25 years, Skip is no stranger to fast machines. Although he once dropped a motorcycle in his swimming pool, he's a seasoned rider with a great attitude. The students voted Skip RiderCoach of the Year in 2009, and all of us here agree as he continues to promote motorcycle safety while attending bike nights and motorcycle events. He currently rides a completely chromed out Harley!
