🏍️✨ Great class. Great energy. Even better personalities! ✨🏍️

This group brought the fun from beginning to end—and Coach Heather was absolutely amazing leading them through the weekend! 💪🔥

We even saved a little bonus footage because apparently motorcycle training can lead to some very important conversations about favorite PEZ dispensers and dream pink Broncos. 😂🍬🦄💗

A huge thank-you to all of our awesome students, our dedicated coaches, and the incredible local partners who continue supporting what we do. Together, we’re building a stronger riding community—one class, one rider, and one unforgettable weekend at a time. 🧡🏍️

🏍️ Okay… hear us out.

What if you did something COMPLETELY NEW next week?

Maybe learning to ride a motorcycle has been on your bucket list for years.

Or maybe it wasn't on your list at all… until this post showed up in your feed. 😂

Either way — **why not?**

Sometimes the best adventures are the ones you didn't spend six months planning.

Our special Fall Break weekday motorcycle classes start **MONDAY**, and you don't need to own a motorcycle, know anything about motorcycles, or have any previous riding experience to sign up.

🏍️ We provide the motorcycles.
👥 Classes are small.
🧡 Our RiderCoaches are there to help you learn one step at a time.
✨ You just have to be willing to try something new.

Come have some fun. Challenge yourself. Learn something you never thought you'd learn.

And maybe finish next week holding that certificate and feeling ridiculously proud of yourself because you can say:

**“I DID THAT.”** 🙌🏍️

🍂 **Fall Break Weekday Classes | October 5–8**

Spots are available, but class starts Monday — so this is definitely one of those **“Why not?”** moments. 😉

🏍️🔥 **RIDE WITH PURPOSE.** 🔥🏍️

Your experience on two wheels has value. It can build confidence, shape safer habits, and help another rider begin their journey with the right foundation.

**Pass it forward.**

AREP is expanding, and we’re continuing to meet experienced riders who may be ready to step into something bigger: **leadership, mentorship, stewardship, and service to the riding community.** 🤘

We’ve already heard from several great people, and we’re excited by the response. As AREP continues growing, we’re keeping this opportunity open so we can meet more qualified riders and build the strongest possible coaching team for our next chapter.

The right candidate is:

⚡ A confident, currently active motorcycle rider
⚡ Dependable with a strong work ethic
⚡ Comfortable leading and encouraging others
⚡ Patient with people learning something completely new
⚡ A self-starter who works well with a team
⚡ Passionate about giving back to the riding community

This is a **part-time weekend opportunity at our Kingsport training range**. It’s a chance to earn great supplemental income while becoming part of something that genuinely matters.

Think you could become an AREP RiderCoach?

🏍️🎓 A DOZEN DONE RIGHT. 🔥

Some people pick up a dozen donuts. 🍩
We picked up 12 brand-new AREP graduates. 😎

This crew showed up, put in the work, challenged themselves, learned some new skills, probably heard “TURN YOUR HEAD!” more times than they care to remember 😂 — and walked off the range with certificates in hand.

Twelve riders. Twelve different stories. One hell of a class. 🏍️💪

To our newest graduates: congratulations! Enjoy the accomplishment, keep practicing what you learned, and remember that earning the certificate isn't the end of learning to ride.

The next chapter starts here. 💙🏍️

Welcome to the riding community, y'all. 🤝

And to our RiderCoaches who keep showing up, sharing their experience, and helping another group of riders take that next step — thank you. 🧡

🔧⚙️ **FIX IT, I WILL.** ⚙️🔧

The BikerWear crew has another shirt concept in the works—and this time, we’re putting the spotlight on **Doug, aka “Yoda.”** 🏍️🔥

Doug brings decades of motorcycle knowledge, a steady voice, and the kind of hard-earned wisdom that only comes from years inside the riding community. When a major reconstruction needs a second set of experienced eyes, BikerWear calls in its consultant. 🤘

Now we’re considering turning that personality into the next BikerWear shirt—and we want to know what you think!

This is currently a **concept preview and interest check**, not an official preorder. Before we move toward production, we need to know:

🔥 Would you wear one?
👕 What size would you need?
⚙️ Would you want to see more BikerWear crew designs?

Drop **“I WANT ONE”** and your shirt size in the comments.

If you want to be added to the interest list and contacted when details become available, email your **name and preferred shirt size** to:

📧 **[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])**

Please don’t post your email address or phone number in the comments.

Nothing is being sold or collected yet—we’re simply measuring interest while the production details are being explored.

**Johnson City Authentic. BikerWear attitude. Doug-approved wisdom.** 🔧🏍️
