Motorcycle Riding Courses for Experienced Riders

Pacific Motorcycle Training

We offer three different options for riders who want to become better and safer on the road.

For New Riders

Learn the basics of riding safely in a controlled environment and receive the certificate that may waive the DMV riding skill test. Our friendly basic riding course was designed for people with zero experience on a motorcycle. We provide motorcycles and helmets for you to learn with.

For Experienced Riders

Become a better—and safer—rider using your own motorcycle with our Intermediate Riding Clinic. Or take your cornering and crash-avoidance skills to the highest level with our Advanced Riding Clinics, taught only by the best certified instructors in the Bay Area!

"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’m still in shock. I was actually able to ride a motorcycle and (!!) it was fun. It was my first time on a bike and first time using a clutch. The course breaks the drills down to baby steps that build on each other. I felt uneasy the majority of the first day but never unsafe. Chris and Dylan deserve all your money if you want to learn to ride. They are excellent coaches who balance constructive criticism and encouragement. Every bit of coaching made me feel safer and more confident on the bike..."

"The class was very informative and well put together. The teachers were awesome, (there's always 2) and this was my 2nd time taking a M1 safety class to get my M1 license after not riding for 3 years.. and needed to renew my M1 lic. It made a lot of sense to take the course again just in case I'd forgotten important safety tips, and I'm VERY glad I retook the course. I didn't realize I'd accumulated a few bad habits over the years that made me not as safe of a rider..."

"Great class and great instructors! Steve, Thomas, and Q, you guys were awesome! I really appreciate Q giving feedback through each exercise even if I was doing things correct! Great experience, will be back for intermediate classes in the future!"

"I really enjoyed this motorcycle course. I have been riding for over two years and would consider myself an intermediate rider. The teachers were fantastic - Wyatt and another guy but I can’t remember his name :/ they were clear, fun and knowledgeable, and the course was set out really well. I was thankful that we did similar drills/exercises over and over again to really impress it into our memory and get it right, and like I said, the teachers were excellent ..."

"Instructors were fantastic, and you could really tell they put their heart into everything. The equipment they provided was also clean and the bikes on selection were a large variety allowing the rider to tailor what kind of bike they might want to ride when it’s all said and done. Highly recommended this spot!"

"Really detailed explanations, very clear and wants everyone to pass, as long as you come in with an open mind anyone should be able to pass. nice safe place for any concerns, and exploration for riding bikes, recommend. all resources were provided to be able to participate in class and pass. Instructors are awesome"
