"Great class! Ray and Kyle were very knowledgeable and these guys went the extra mile to expedite my paperwork! Highly recommended!"
- VICTOR HAYES, March 2020
"Tifa, Q, and Tony were fantastic coaches with clear communication and instructions. All of the instructors had great energy and focus to help and teach. It was an excellent beginner’s course with the CMSP certification (I passed the course and received the waiver in less than a week). I'll look to take intermediate and advanced rider courses in the future after some continued practice and skills refinement. Thank you for the training, and I highly recommend PMT to all new riders..."

"Loved the training. Had great instructors and everyone loves to teach. It was a place i felt great with learning and making mistakes so they could teach me to be better. Location was perfect as well. Nothing better than being at Laguna Seca."
- Michael Jonathan Cunningham, July 2025
"I really enjoyed my CMSP beginners course in San Bruno. The instructors give good advice, are enthusiastic, and are encouraging. I still have a ton to learn but I feel more confident that I have a good start after taking the course. Thanks Patrick, Q, and Kieran! You guys did a great job."

"I had never ridden a motorcycle before this class, and now that I have completed the full course (online and in person, on bike, portions) I can't imagine learning to ride without it. The online classes were comprehensive and much more real world than I was expecting. The on bike training was solid, and our instructor knowledgeable, patient, upbeat, but also firm. I appreciated her immensely. HIGHLY recommend."
- Papa EchoTango, February 2024
"Morning course 16-17 August 2025 Basic I had a fantastic experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training in Livermore! Everything was well-organized from start to finish. The instructors (Wyatt, Joe, the blonde female instructor — I can't remember her name (so sorry)) did a great job explaining every part of the course, and they were always available to answer any questions. They were encouraging and supportive throughout, which really helped build confidence, especially for beginners..."
