Dewayne Henson is a Bassist at Penny Samson. Colleagues describe him as "I have known and worked with Dewayne as a RiderCoach for over ten years, and I consider Dewayne to be in the very top tier of motorcycle education excellence. I have had the pleasure of both coaching with Dewayne as a peer and colleague and in training under Dewayne as a learner seeking improvement, and his teaching facility with both beginner students and with highly experienced riders is exceptional. Dewayne demonstrates mastery for his role as RiderCoach on every level, from core competency in the skills and knowledge of safe motorcycling and adult-centered learning principles, to understanding the complexities of individual and group learning environments. He embodies the mission of the Motorcycle Safety Foundation, to make motorcycling safer and more enjoyable by ensuring access to lifelong quality education and training for current and prospective riders, and by advocating a safer riding environment. Dewayne’s ability to match different people's learning styles with the communication methods best suited for their learning is one of his greatest strengths as an educator and trainer, and it sets him apart as a benchmark for all RiderCoaches. His dedication to the community of beginning riders is of special note, as I have yet to meet anyone as passionate and dedicated to the task of developing, educating and nurturing the riding community as Dewayne. I fully endorse Dewayne as a RiderCoach of choice for anyone seeking motorcycle safety education, and I personally choose Dewayne as a RiderCoach when I take courses for my own continuing skill development. As a motorcycle safety educator, Dewayne is the exception, not the rule. He takes his opportunity and obligation as RiderCoach to many levels beyond the standards for excellence, and his dedication to motorcycle education and training (read: safety and enjoyment) is of the highest level."
