"I took the beginner course here. Before taking this course, I had never been on a motorcycle. Now I can say I can confidently operate a bike and be safe. Wyatt, Erin, and Q are great instructors! They are super knowledgeable and patient. Throughout the course, they did a great job at building up everyone’s confidence and preparing them for the assessment. I will definitely be taking the intermediate course once I get my own bike!"

"Helpful staff. Knowledgeable instructors. You will definitely come out more confident in riding a motorcycle if you are a newbie. A con though: You better pass the written test the first time, or else they will charge you $75 to re-take it. I personally did not see the reason why. I mean, I took it during their business hour."

"Isaac and Zac were fantastic instructors for the Basic Motorcycle Training course! They did a great job explaining everything clearly and thoroughly, making sure everyone understood the fundamentals needed not just for training but also for getting licensed. The practices were run on time, well-structured, and really helped build confidence. They treated everyone with respect and were patient with each person’s skill level. Highly recommend this team if you’re looking to get started with riding!"

"George and Isaac did an awesome job! Not only did they give an amazing presentation but they made sure we had tons of fun! We learned so much in such a little time but they made sure we understood concepts such as SPAT and SIPDE. I feel really comfortable with approaching turns and safety maneuvers. The classroom instructors were awesome too! Very engaging and knowledgeable!"

"I had ZERO experience on a motorcycle and by the first day of behind the wheel class I was riding!! Great course! It’s a lot to take in but the instructors were very patient, friendly and knowledgeable! Dylan and Tony were awesome!! They had great chemistry and made the course fun!! Tony is super supportive and encouraging and Dylan can be hard on you but when he praises you, you know you did a good job! Love the enthusiasm of those two. Will definitely sign up for the intermediate class in the future."

- Jamie Machado, November 2023

"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..."
