Horn Rapids MX | Richland, WA | July 7, 2026
WASHINGTON
Six fundamentals.
One full day.
The drills you do at Horn Rapids MX are the same drills our students still run five years later. Build the habits in a controlled environment, then apply them at speed.
Body position
The single biggest source of lost time and missed lines. We rebuild it from scratch using our flat-ground drill sequence.
Vision
Where the eyes go, the bike follows. Drills to train your scan pattern through corners and over jumps.
Throttle control
Smooth roll-on, hard hits, and clutch work. The mechanical fundamentals that compound across every section of the track.
Cornering
Inside, outside, ruts, flat turns. Entry, apex, exit. The pieces of cornering that separate fast from comfortable.
Jumps
Approach, takeoff, body position in the air, landing. Build the mental and mechanical pattern that takes the gamble out.
Ruts & lines
How to read a track that changes by the lap. Line selection, rut commitment, and how to set up the corners that follow.
Built for every rider.
Beginners build correct habits from day one. Vet and intermediate riders break the bad habits that have plateaued them. Expert riders find the time they didn't know they were leaving on the table.
Are you a beginner?
This camp is perfect for you, because you'll be creating correct technical habits from the beginning. (A beginner is not a first-time rider. A beginner should be able to navigate a track without assistance successfully.)
Are you a vet or intermediate rider?
This camp is perfect for you, because you'll be breaking bad habits, creating new ones, and getting instant feedback to take your riding to the next level.
Are you an expert rider?
This camp is perfect for you because you'll create a better understanding of how the body and the bike work together, as well as learn drill sequences that you can use forever to hone your technique into near perfection.
Watch what a day actually looks like.
Real riders, real drills, real progress in real time. This is what training with Tyler looks like.
Six things every rider leaves with.
Every drill, every rep, every conversation on the side of the track ladders up to one of these six outcomes.

Speed is a side effect of technique.
Are you hitting a plateau in your riding, struggling with arm pump, or want to shave significant time off your laps? Discover a training methodology designed for riders serious about real, lasting improvement, not just quick fixes. (Some students have dropped up to 10 seconds off their lap time.)
Our approach is different. We move beyond the "old school" method of just pounding out laps. We build your technique from the ground up using our pro-level drill sequence, starting on flat ground.
Why flat ground? To build correct habits effectively, you need the easiest possible environment. When pressure hits (fight or flight mode), you default to habits. We instill the right habits first, then systematically apply them on the track through rotating drills and application motos, letting you truly feel what correct technique is like.
Imagine riding faster while feeling more comfortable and in control. Our students experience tangible results: significant lap time reductions, less fatigue and arm pump, increased confidence at speed. This isn't about maybe getting faster; it's about building a solid, repeatable foundation that leads to sustainable progress and prepares you to challenge yourself effectively on the track and eventually in competition. This class specifically focuses on solidifying that technique and applying it on the track.
This class demands commitment. We are looking exclusively for open-minded riders dedicated to learning and applying our methodology. If you believe you're "too good" for foundational drills or aren't serious about refining your technique, this isn't the right fit.
Ready to invest in your technique and unlock your potential? If you're committed to the process and eager to improve the right way, sign up for our class today.

Before you sign up.
What is the age limit for riders?
No age limit or minimum. However, we ask that young riders be able to go through the track and ride without parent help. Ideally, they can pick up their own bikes if they fall.
Do you rent bikes?
Unfortunately, for any camps outside of our home base of Austin, Texas, we do not rent bikes. However, you can contact us and we can try to source you a bike from the local area.
Do you offer refunds?
To protect operational planning and nationwide event logistics, the following applies:
- 60+ days before camp date: Full refund available upon written request.
- Within 60 days of camp date: Registration converts to Training Credit.
- Within 72 hours of camp start: No refunds or credits issued.
Do you provide lunch?
Lunch and water are the rider's responsibility. Bring food, plenty of water, and snacks for a full day on the track.
Can I drop my kids off with a friend?
If a minor will be receiving the lesson and the legal guardian will not be present, it is absolutely mandatory that this consent form is signed and notarized, or else we will not coach the minor.
Is this class only for racers?
Because we take a technique-first approach, we are able to cater to all skill levels and all riding styles.
Is this beneficial for woods riders?
Yes. Yes. Yes. Woods riders might honestly have MORE to gain from this class.
What if it rains?
Motocross is an outdoor sport. Camps will proceed unless conditions are deemed unsafe. All decisions regarding safety, continuation, relocation, or cancellation due to weather are made at the sole discretion of The MX Factory staff. If a camp is canceled due to weather, your registration converts to a Training Credit redeemable at any future MXF clinic.
Wait, is this clinic during the week?
Yes — the date on the site is correct. We often schedule clinics during the week because scheduling on the weekend with tracks is very difficult. A lot of our students play hooky to get out of school or work to join us for the day.
Who is the trainer?
Tyler Livesay, owner of The MX Factory. Former AMA pro — 128 amateur wins, six AMA Outdoor Nationals, qualified for the 2014 Houston Supercross. Since 2012 he's coached 5,000+ riders across 40+ states. You can also catch him on YouTube (475K+ subscribers) and Instagram.
How long is registration open for?
You can register from the time the date is posted until the night before the clinic — as long as it is not sold out.
Are there still spots available?
If the live spots counter above shows availability, there are spots for you. Once you see "Sold out · join the waitlist," that means it's full — but a waitlist spot is worth grabbing in case of cancellation.
