HELLO , I'M DANIEL TOLOMEI
Also known as DanDanTheFireman. After serving as a Firefighter/EMT-B for 11 years and witnessing numerous motorcycle accidents, I founded an online motorcycle academy. I was an MSF Rider Coach and Accident Scene Management Instructor for 2 years, and I am currently Stop The Bleed and Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) certified. My goal is to share my education and knowledge with the wider motorcycle community through the courses at the MTC Rider Academy. Drawing on my extensive experience from observing thousands of motorcycle crashes and close calls, I developed a comprehensive training course that addresses the most common causes of accidents, providing effective solutions for riders.

COMPREHENSIVE GUIDANCE FOR NEW RIDERS
I take the new rider from not knowing anything about the hobby and guide them through every step:
- What gear to get
- How to operate the motorcycle
- How to ride the motorcycle in various different riding scenarios:
(in town, at night, in their neighborhood, in the mountains, on the highway).

COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING AT MTC RIDER ACADEMY
The MTC Rider Academy focuses on more than just riding a motorcycle. It teaches how to help an injured motorcyclist, including yourself, after a crash. The course also explains how to mentor another new rider on how to ride. This material is something that no other motorcycle training program offers.
FOCUS ON AVERAGE COMMUTERS AND HOBBYISTS
My main focus is on the average commuter or hobbyist. To get them to work, to their friend's house, to enjoy a weekend ride. Every other motorcycle course is focused on just getting your license or how to ride fast on a motorcycle track.
