Vancouver Island Safety Council 2012 Open House
Saturday June 16, 2012 10:00am to 4:00pm

Camosun College Interurban Campus - Rear Parking Lots P2 & P3

 

We are welcoming the public (riding and non-riding) to come down and find out all about the Vancouver Island Safety Council and the programs we have to offer.

 

The goal of this Open House is to not only showcase what the Vancouver Island Safety Council has to offer, but bring together the Victoria riding community to one event. VISC has been serving the South Island community for over 30 years, educating thousands of people to be safer pedestrians, bicyclists, drivers and riders.

 

One of the main things that the Vancouver Island Safety Council is known for is our motorcycle training program and we are hoping this event will help us touch base with our past, present and future riders.

 

This event will provide a great opportunity for people considering learning to ride a motorcycle to come out and talk with our instructors and ask questions about motorcycling, our courses and the enjoyment of learning to ride.

 

If you currently ride and are looking for ways to improve your skills, then come find out all about our Experienced Riders Course or better yet, test your riding skills in our challenging Timed Riding Circuit!

 

So bring your bike; bring the family, because this will be the motorcycle event in Victoria this summer!

 

 

Keep checking back here for event updates!

 

The Vancouver Island Safety Council 2012 Open House will feature:
