"Outstanding class, instructors knew the material but also provided me insightful tips that really made a difference in real time. I appreciated the feedback and truthfully it was not an easy class to complete and requires stamina. Elvie and Erin were so supportive and so was Tony, highly valued their comments and feedback. Relax elbows, ride smoothly and don’t get overly confident. I would recommend all three levels of riding before getting out on the road..."

"First time ever touching a motorcycle, came out of the course with a heap of knowledge and fundamentals. Always more to learn, but as a beginner course I couldn’t really ask for more. Instructors were great at their job. They were patient and did very well at spotting and correcting my mistakes, so that by the end of it I was comfortable riding the bike. Highly recommend."

"It was a really nice experience out here learning how to ride a motorcycle. The instructors are those who love riding and they are people who are passionate about teaching riding culture. They always want you to ride safe and have fun!"

"Absolutely fantastic training for the newbie!! I was riding a motorcycle by the end of the day- it was fabulous! The teachers, both in the classroom and on the range, are all very experienced (10+years) riders. They stayed calm even when I didn't. The classroom instruction is thorough but not excessive; I would have loved a few more hours on the range since I was SO new. I will definitely be taking more classes with them!"

"Morning course 16-17 August 2025 Basic I had a fantastic experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training in Livermore! Everything was well-organized from start to finish. The instructors (Wyatt, Joe, the blonde female instructor — I can't remember her name (so sorry)) did a great job explaining every part of the course, and they were always available to answer any questions. They were encouraging and supportive throughout, which really helped build confidence, especially for beginners..."

"I had a good experience in this training. I felt pretty safe riding a motorcycle around the course. The bikes are pretty new, and the helmets are in good shape too! The staff is knowledgable, friendly, and they answer all your questions."
