Convenient on-line classroom

The classroom portion consists of a six-hour course called eRider that can be done at your convenience and in the comfort of your home. It is highly interactive, using video and other features to address risk management, riding strategy, roadway management, impairments, and special riding situations like carrying passengers and group riding. Participants complete all classroom activities (6 chapters) before their first in-person motorcycle riding session. The motorcycle riding portion of the course consists of 10 hours of in-person instruction on gas powered motorcycles. The 10-hours of riding instruction takes place over two days and builds fundamental street-riding skills and strategies.

The eRider is a great option for busy students who are successful at learning in an individualized, self-paced environment. Please check our eRider FAQs page for eRider system requirements.

We welcome all Sacramento residents as well as future riders from neighboring towns such as Woodland, Davis, Dixon, and Yuba. Come learn how to ride a motorcycle and have fun with us!

"Fantastic beginner motorcycle course. I gained a wealth of crucial knowledge and feel far more confident to get out on the road on a motorcycle. All of the instructors were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. Will definitely be back for the intermediate course."

― Jason Grant

"When I heard that these guys were opening a Sacramento location, I got three friends signed up who've been gearing up to take a training course on the east side. I wasn't surprised that they enjoyed their experience as much as I did. I would recommend Pacific Motorcycle Training to anyone looking to learn from scratch or just to keep your skills fresh. Very professional, knowledgeable and they keep it fun!"

― Matt Hoffman-Beals

"5 stars for the program! I ve learned a lot just by attending this short 2 day course. Both Chris and Isaac are great instructors. They bring lots of real life experience and humor when they teach. They make the classes fun both inside the class room and on the range. Highly recommend them!!"

"I came here knowing very little about riding a motorcycle and finished the course feeling more confident and at ease about riding. They can teach you all the basics for getting around on a motorcycle over a short weekend and still continue to make it fun and engaging. Definitely recommend Pacific Motorcycle Training for anyone looking to learn how to ride a motorcycle confidently!"

― Dapo Grillo

"Such a great experience. It is clear that the instructors have a passion for riding bikes, most importantly, safe riding. The classroom was very helpful to understand the rules and theories. The riding sessions allowed for practical application of those principles. Chris, Craig and Isaac were great instructors!"

― Kevin Dolan

"Evie and Tex were awesome. Patient providing reasonable input and directors for novice and experienced riders. Setting class up to succeed. Really enjoyed the class and spending time on the bikes. Looking forward to taking intermediate class once two-wheeler purchased."
