"Great learning experience! Safe environmemt with good pacing amd rest time inbetween. Instructors followed the manual closely so everything was covered. Instructors were encouraging but also letting you know what to improve. Only downside would be various states of the available bikes and so it is a bit of a lottery. Otherwise overall great!"

"I can't thank these guys enough. Such incredible patience and knowledge! We had a class with students from all walks of life and backgrounds, and these guys were able to make everyone's experience a very pleasant one. The classes were super informative and fun. They really do give 110%. Ray, Isaac, and Chris, thank you guys so much. You're absolutely terrific and it's been a pleasure learning from and getting to know you."

"I’ve only ever ridden motocross, and I’ve been interested in getting a street bike for years now. I finally found myself an opportunity to get a bike and start the process for my M1 and PMT was such a big help during the course! I was able to pass with a perfect score thanks to the team."

"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."

"Wonderful motorcycle school! My English is not very strong, so I used an interpreter during the lessons. The team of professionals always made sure the interpreter had time to explain everything to me, so I could fully understand and learn. Thanks to them, I became a confident motorcycle rider. Before this, I had no riding experience, but in just two days they taught me step by step. Huge thanks to the school and the amazing team — I highly, highly, highly recommend them!"

"Had the best experience here! Evie and Erin were great teachers, they made the training fun and intentional. I went from never riding a bike to being completely comfortable shifting gears, emergency braking and swerving and so much more in just 2 days. Highly recommend this course for safety, skills, confidence, and fun!"

"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."
