The truth is most of those injuries could have been prevented had the operator had the proper training,” said Rick Sigel, founder of Training Wheels. “With our dirt bike course, we provide that training in a way that instills confidence in newer operators of all ages so they don’t make the mistakes that lead to accidents—and, we manage to have fun, too.”

Topics covered during the five-hour session include: range, signals, rules and warm-up exercises; controls; engine start/stop; moving the motorcycle; riding posture; shifting; lower body control; turning; turning and gap selection; counterbalancing; riding over obstacles; and riding responsibly.

Based on the number of participants, the fees for the Dirt Bike Course can range from $139 to $249. The fee includes use of a dirt bike, helmet and goggles—you do not need to bring your own dirt bike. Classes are typically held with four to eight participants on Saturdays and Sundays. All classes are taught by instructors certified by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF).

“Riding a dirt bike is about as much fun as you can have outdoors,” said Sigel. “Our Dirt Bike School shows riders of all ages how much more fun you can have on a bike once you know how to navigate it properly and safely.”

Manoog III, located at 450 South Street, Hyannis. The Firm’s sponsorship will go towards MBCC’s “Against the Tide” swim, walk, run, kayak and run fundraiser fundraiser.

HYANNIS, PLYMOUTH and ROCKLAND, MA…

As a personal injury attorney, John C. Manoog III is quite familiar with going against the tide. He often takes cases to trial that many other lawyers would have settled out of court for less of an award.  Perhaps that best explains his firm’s sponsorship of the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition’s Against the Tide fundraiser; contributing $5000 over the past two years.

“You simply can’t choose a tougher foe than cancer and there is no easy path towards defeating a disease as devastating as breast cancer,” said Manoog. “We commend Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition for taking on this deadly opponent and are happy to support the Against the Tide effort.

For the past fourteen years, the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC) has held the annual Against the Tide swim, walk, run, kayak fundraiser. The morning event includes a competitive and recreational swim, kayak, walk, and run components, as well as an Aquathlon consisting of a competitive 1-mile swim and your choice of a competitive 5K or 10K run.

The Metro Boston Against the Tide event will be held at DCR’s Hopkinton State Park on Saturday, June 22nd. The annual Cape Cod Against the Tide event will be held at DCR’s Nickerson State Park on Saturday, August 17th. Both events start at 7:00am and end at 12:00 noon. Each participant must raise $175 to take part.

“John Manoog and his entire staff are true humanitarians, I am deeply grateful to John for his generous commitment in help us work towards our goal of breast cancer prevention. It is because of sponsors like Attorney Manoog that we are able to continue our education and advocacy efforts to reduce exposure to environmental contaminants linked to breast cancer. He is a credit to his community for helping the state’s leading breast cancer organization to end the legacy of breast cancer for future generations,” said Cheryl Osimo, MBCC’s executive director.

According to the MBCC website:

  • In 2008, Massachusetts had the highest incidence rate of breast cancer in the U.S.
  • National data for 2009 (which is the largest available) reports an incidence rate for breast cancer at 130.3 per 100,000 in Massachusetts compared to an average rate of 123.1 for the U.S. as a whole.
  • Massachusetts is in the top quartile of incidence for breast cancer in the U.S., a group that includes Colorado, Connecticut, Washington DC, Hawaii, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Washington.
