Our Safety Work
Off-road motorcycle riding and racing comes with inherent risks. The Kurt Caselli Foundation works to minimize risks outside a rider's control by providing safety resources, equipment, and guidance to race organizations and motorcycle clubs.
What we fund
Practical safety resources that help race organizers, course personnel, and medical teams better protect riders.
Course markers & guide
Our Course Marking Guide, developed with the NHHA and desert racing clubs, promotes consistent course markings. We provide standardized directional arrows, danger markers, and ribbon to improve course clarity and rider awareness.
Flags, vests & signs
Racing flags, caution flags, high-visibility vests, race in progress signs, and other safety supplies help course personnel communicate hazards and improve rider awareness.
Communication & trackers
Radio equipment, GPS trackers, and communication resources help race officials, safety teams, and medical personnel coordinate responses when incidents occur.
Medical response
We support on-course medical response through safety vehicles, including the GNCC medical Kawasaki Mule with a backboard, radios, and Baja Designs lights. Along with other medical equipment and resources that help personnel reach and assist injured riders.
Safety education
Riders 1st Responders first aid training, Racing Flags 101, flagger safety meetings, and our free Ride Prepared guides to help riders plan ahead and be better prepared for emergencies.
Rider ID & first aid kits
Waterproof Emergency Contact Helmet Stickers and compact R1R First Aid Kits made for a rider's pack.

How safety support works
Apply once a year
One application per club or series. Apply at least 45 days before your first event of the season.
Get approved
Our team reviews requests based on safety needs, available resources, and program guidelines. Most approved clubs get discounted course marking supplies, and flags, signs, and vests may be donated or offered at cost. Once approved, place your order at least 30 days before your first event so we have time to ship.
Share it with your riders
Tell your riders about the support at registration, rider meetings, and on social media. We send you the graphics.
