LARRY HUGHES BIO
Larry has been giving motocross lessons for 30 years, starting out when he was 18 years old. Learning under close friend and Team Honda Motocross and Supercross star Steve Wise, Larry began putting on motocross schools and giving private lessons. Over those years Larry has given lessons to hundreds of riders and many of those riders have gone on to successful careers of their own. Some riding techniques have stayed the same over the years and some have changed and Larry continues to study the sport of motocross as it evolves. Today Larry teaches both the beginner rider and the seasoned racer how to improve their riding experience and become a better and safer rider.
