Be the Boss of the Bike
Master the art of adventure riding with this immersive 3-day off-road training program led by Jocelin Snow. Designed for riders of all experience levels, this course builds the skills, mindset, and confidence needed to handle large-displacement adventure motorcycles in real-world terrain.
Jocelin’s approach emphasizes mindset and confidence—what’s happening between your ears—as the foundation for successful adventure riding. From there, riders develop practical techniques that translate directly to safer, smoother, and more capable riding on and off pavement.
Who This Program Is For
Jocelin Snow’s training is built around the core idea: be the boss of the bike—mentally, physically, and mechanically.
This training is suitable for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders. It is ideal for riders new to off-road riding on larger adventure motorcycles (650cc+ recommended), as well as experienced dirt riders looking to improve their control, confidence, and technique on heavy ADV bikes.
Program Structure
Days 1 & 2: Focused Training
$1500
Training begins with Jocelin’s signature mindset and confidence work, skills that carry over to everyday riding in all terrain and conditions. Riders then build a strong technical foundation, including balance, body position, peg weighting, clutch and throttle control, enduro steering, and effective braking.
As the course progresses, riders work on advanced techniques such as hill climbs and descents, off-camber terrain, hill-fail recovery, obstacles, and towing. Training takes place on varied surfaces including water crossings, sand, gravel, ruts, mud holes, rocky sections, and poorly maintained roads, with a strong emphasis on safety and smart decision-making.
Day 3: Full-Day Immersion Ride
$225 (as class add-on)
On day three, riders apply everything they’ve learned during a guided full-day adventure ride through challenging off-road terrain. This immersion day allows for real-time coaching, terrain analysis, and skill refinement under Jocelin’s guidance. Riders may also have the option to connect via Cardo Bluetooth devices to receive instruction while riding.

What a fabulous weekend
What a fabulous weekend; one of the best "vacations" of my life. I attended all four days (Level 2 and Level 3), staying in one of the tent sites. Others stayed in yurts, campers, or drove in daily. Showers are available and a new lodge is under construction. Ben Dragoo's instruction (DART) was mature, practical, and well structured. Jamie and James were excellent assistants. As a new rider of only a few months, I came in with only self-taught (YouTube) skills. I was also limited to what I could apply on roads and trails in my area. Other participants had decades of riding experience. I was initially very intimidated, but the program guides students through a progression of skills that elevate both noob and mature riders. I've done a number of technical skill trainings course over the years, including as student and instructor for rock climbing. Too often instructors present an ideal or limited scope of acceptable technique or equipment; everything else is "wrong." For example, a friend of mine was taught that you need a specific (awkward) posture when standing. Or, instructors may insist that bar risers are always wrong. If you just follow "their" rules, you are doing it right. Ben's approach was more relaxed; "ride what you have." This carries through the whole program: practical, approachable, non-judgmental, and patient. This reduces stress and helps participants focus on skill building without shaming from an instructor. The out-ride to the Uinta National Forest on day three of Leve l3 training was the final, in-situ application of all the training. It was a wonderful experience. Grit Moto Adventures ranch is a great facility with constructed and natural terrain that provide safe and effective training stations. Kari's support was excellent. Thank you for putting all together.

6 stars if I could!!!
GRIT, Kari and Ben were absolutely amazing! They are patient when the struggle got real, which several of us were in need of. It does not matter if you are newer to riding off road or have been riding for decades, you will learn some new skills! I highly recommend this course and will be back for the level 3 course.

Easy access to Park City & hiking!
Carrie is an exceptional host and you will feel like family upon the completion of your training/visit. The yurts are clean and comfy with bathhouse nearby. We went to bed and woke up with the sun.

Utah 6 Day Tour
Riding GRIT Moto’s Fall 2024 Utah! Homebase Tour was an absolutely incredible experience. The roads, the back country off-roads, the landscape and scenery of Utah in the Fall, the accommodations, and the support were all phenomenal. The six day ride included everything they said it would; adventure, camaraderie, challenges conquered by perseverance and team work, and a feeling of accomplishment once over. The rented Yamaha Tenere 700 was one tough powerful bike; perfect for this adventure. Our guides for this tour, Ken (lead), and Curtis (sweep), were great and a joy to hang with after a long day of riding. And boy, do they have stories. It is hard to put into words how great Kari (SAG truck driver, GRIT principal, support dog owner) was. She went above and beyond my expectations for this tour every single day. When it comes to Adventure riding, she is the most passionate person I’ve ever met. I’m sure this passion will drive the success of GRIT Moto Adventures and the GRIT Moto Ranch. Finally, to ride this with my brother, who I had not ridden with in many decades, made this a ‘beyond priceless’ experience. Thank you, GRIT!
