"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."

"Instructors: Isaac and Christorpher were incrediblely attentive to detail and immediately gave advices to proper riding. Their expertise is absolutely phenomenal. I would highly recommend anyone who is interested to immediately sign up for the course. The lecture and riding lessons gave me the opportunity to understand my weaknesses and how to fix it. Shout-out to the instructors! You guys rock!!!"

Instructors also kept it real and gave a lot of 1 on 1 when needed. I will recommend anyone that is trying to get there M1 license to attend this course."

"I had never driven a motorcycle before and by the end of the class I was able to shift up and down, understand how to use both brakes, and execute proper turning techniques. The instructors, Dylan and Crusoe, ensured everyone was on the same page for the exercises and would provide positive and negative feedback on how the students performed on the exercises. I highly recommend this course!"

"It was a great service and education provided by them. It is very useful for beginners as well as for riders not learned motorcycle riding technics methodically. I would recommend this company for your motorcycle learning and license process"
- Vimal Niroshan Sengoden, March 2024
"A highly recommended, informative and thorough, course that covers all the basics, taught by extremely professional instructors and should be mandatory for any beginning rider. In attendance were riders of all levels of experience ranging from those who had never been on a bike to those who had ridden for years, but wanted to get back to the essentials. Also very fun, and it includes the driven test so you don’t have to take that part at the DMV once you’ve graduated."
