My son started riding in august 2003. He has attended three of Erics beginer schools. every time I watch him ride I can see noticable improvement I have done other schools in washington, and I would have to say Erics program has been very instramental in our growth as rider and father. I took him to spokane in april and after one day with eric and his guest instructors I think he is ten times smoother and 100 times more confident. I would sugest EWMX schoolsto eny rider at any level attend Eric's program
