"I’ve only ever ridden motocross, and I’ve been interested in getting a street bike for years now. I finally found myself an opportunity to get a bike and start the process for my M1 and PMT was such a big help during the course! I was able to pass with a perfect score thanks to the team."

"Bye bye bad habits I got from friends who ride and YouTube videos. Chris made learning fun! Will definitely sign up for the intermediate course! 12/10 would recommend to see if riding is for you."

"I took the January 24 course with Craig and Evie as the instructors. Great coaching, great drills, and great classroom explanations! Great meeting all the other students and learning from all the feedback. I would highly recommend the intermediate course and will be taking an advanced course in the future!!"

"Craig, and his crew at Pacific Motorcycle Training are pros, nuff said. They know their stuff and make a conscious effort to pass it along to you. If your goal is to know how to ride and be safe doing it, you've come to the right place. Prepare to feel confident on the open highway after completion; this course is the real deal."

"I am training to be an instructor and it is required to take several classes to get an understanding of the program from a new rider's perspective. I am impressed with how well the program works I have been to 1 class and then I was a student both times I watched Evie teach very new students ranging in age how to ride a motorcycle. She is a great teacher and is very good at giving positive feedback and helping the students if they need help in a certain drill..."
