"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."

"Both instructors, Christine and Earl, were great. They were in sync throughout the day. They were very knowledgeable and knew how to effectively deliver constructive feedback."

"Great course even if you have zero riding experience like me. Instructor Dillon struck a great balance between enthusiastic coaching, professional approach and having a good time. Lots of time actually riding and learning to handle the bike. You can bring your own bike if you check with the office first. My partner (who already rides) took this class with me and thought it was a significantly better class than other CSMP courses he has attended in the area..."

"Dan and Wyatt were great instructors. Wyatt is super chill and explains well while offering his own tips to make sure you really understand. Dan is super lighthearted and is always cracking jokes so you don’t feel too bad or beat yourself up when you make a mistake. I would definitely recommend taking this class as a first time rider they are super patient with you no matter how many times you stall the bike, make sure to bring snacks it’s a decent amount of time to be rider and learning."

"The basic course was a rewarding and positive learning experience with a strong emphasis on skills building and reinforcement with real world application. It is imperative that all new motorcyclists complete this training. As a returning motorcyclist I found it to be a great review that helped me to unlearn bad habits, especially in emergency braking. The instructors are exemplary. I will take the intermediate and advanced courses as soon as I can..."

"George and Isaac did an awesome job! Not only did they give an amazing presentation but they made sure we had tons of fun! We learned so much in such a little time but they made sure we understood concepts such as SPAT and SIPDE. I feel really comfortable with approaching turns and safety maneuvers. The classroom instructors were awesome too! Very engaging and knowledgeable!"
