"Our two days of training with our instructor Q was great. The helmet that they loaned me for me alright and was in great condition. The motorcycles area smaller and off brand for the most part. Some throttles and clutches were really old to the point where some of us had to kick the shifter so much it just broke off. Overall the sign up process was also straightforward. I called in to make sure i got everything right, they called me back and patiently explained everything..."

"This course was a great value! The instructors have a fantastic breadth of knowledge and know exactly how to make their wisdom stick with the students. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants a leg-up on motorcycle safety which, in this day and age with more and more people on the road, is a necessity."

"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 had an excellent experience during the CMSP basic course with Pacific Motorcycle Training in the Monterey/Salinas area. I have been a passenger on a motorcycle before, but had never rode one by myself. The instructors for our course, Dillon and Chris, were enthusiastic, cared for our safety, and made everyone feel welcome regardless of experience level. They made me even more excited to begin my journey as a motorcycle rider."

"First and foremost the instructor's Thomas and Steve were amazing to work with. The course itself was super helpful, I gained a lot of knowledge and confidence from it. Would highly recommend it to anyone interested in writing motorcycles."
