"Instructors were very helpful, patient and professional. The class had not boring either."

- One Romero, September 2020

"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!"

- Sarah G, March 2024

"If you’re looking for an amazing experience to start your riding career, this is the place. The instructors are patient, friendly, knowledgeable and know how to relay that knowledge. Evi was a fantastic instructor in particular. Once the class was done they offer an intermediate class at a discount (it never expires) which I didn’t hesitate to sign up for. 👍"

- Paul Feeney, August 2024

"The experience was amazing, super cool instructors and very helpful! I’ve already recommended a lot of friends to try it out and experience the training course! I’ll be back to take my intermediate level course for sures"

- Adrian Mellin, September 2024

"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."

- Christopher Hoskins, March 2025

"It was cold. It was windy. It was pouring down rain, but the fundamentals were all there for every experience that you may encounter when riding a motorcycle great for beginners and experience riders alike."

- Jeramie Baker, February 2025

"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!"
