If you're in the US, and you're even slightly interested in motorcycles, then you've probably heard of the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. It's a national organization that exists to spread the message (and training techniques) to get would-be riders familiar with their bikes, so they can ride safely and have fun.
Many states throughout the US have training programs, either through the state's Department of Motor Vehicles, Department of Transportation, or similar state org to teach motorcycle safety fundamentals to new and existing riders alike. In recent time, riders in New York had been facing difficulties in finding training. When Road and Track tried to investigate the issue, the main complaint they found seemed to be that everyone including MSF instructors felt as though they'd been left in the dark and weren't being told anything about the situation by those running the program. For what it's worth, you can find similar complaints among New York-based riders in Reddit threads, as well.
