"Took this training course and never been on a motorcycle. I took the classroom portion on eRider prior to practice riding range. This made it easy as it was going at my own pace. Really get to focus on what was being taught. The first day of riding portion, they’ll teach you where the controls are on the bike and a lot of slow maneuvering and Taking corners. Thomas and Mark was very patient. I was tentative but they kept reminding me to trust the process..."

"Wyatt, Dan, and Q were all very professional, informative and encouraging. Learned a lot and will be taking more classes, could’ve done with more slow speed practice and tight cornering but overall I highly recommend."

"Helpful staff. Knowledgeable instructors. You will definitely come out more confident in riding a motorcycle if you are a newbie. A con though: You better pass the written test the first time, or else they will charge you $75 to re-take it. I personally did not see the reason why. I mean, I took it during their business hour."

"I took the beginner MSF course with Stephen and he was a fantastic instructor. He was very informative, personable, and thorough! His demonstrations were concise and he really took the time to break things down in a very digestible way. I really can't believe that in two and a half days how much more confident I feel at the thought of getting on a bike, compared to before. The RRMT crew really care about the safety of riders & making sure everyone knows proper and safe technique..."

"Great place to learn how to ride. I came in with absolutely no experience and felt comfortable with all the basics of riding after the course. Instructors were very experienced and supportive. The lecture portion is online and interactive, which is great because you can go through it at whatever pace and repeat chapters as needed."
