"This was my second experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training. Both classes were conducted with the highest level of professionalism and care for each student. I noticed that every member of this most recent class signed up for a followup class. I would highly recommend this outfit for motorcycle training on all levels. As they said the class, these skills are perishable and require on-going practice and re-learning to maintain."

"The instructors were friendly and very knowledgeable. They were patient and gave me a lot of helpful tips when I was having trouble with the controls and following some of their instructions. Evie ran to help me when I fell over (thank God I wasn't going fast). I would have liked to spend more time getting used to the bike before starting maneuvers. It was my first time on a motorcycle and I never learned how to drive a car with a manual transmission so it took me a while to learn how to coordinate the clutch/switching gears with the acceleration..."

"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!"

"I had a terrific experience at the two-day basic training course. The programming was extremely well-organized, and the instructors were both skilled and extremely supportive and encouraging. They gave really helpful individualized attention even in the midst of the large-group instruction. I also felt they were truly committed to the safety and success of their students. I will recommend this course widely and return again for more advanced instruction."

"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..."

"For never having ridden a motorcycle, the instructors did an amazing job. It was well worth the money, and I had a blast! Would definitely recommend this course to anyone thinking about getting a motorcycle."

"I had a great experience! It was fun, approachable, and appropriately suited for beginner riders. The instructors (Jose, Andrew, and Jacob) did a great job educating us, supporting us, and helping us apply proper technique while we learned. They also impressed upon us the real-world dangers that exist when riding motorcycles while teaching us how to actively avoid or manage those risks to the best of our ability. I highly recommend this course to anybody looking to start riding a motorcycle."
