"Loved my experience in class. I learned even more than I expected. Became an even better motorcyclist and this class was well with the money. Many thanks to Craig and his staff!"

"The instructors were so patient and the safety training was excellent. I felt much more confident after the sessions ended. Erin, Connor and Lorenzo were great instructors and I totally recommend undergoing the safety training before you take your motorcycle on the roads!"
- Nitya Iyengar, February 2026
"Brian and Evee were the absolute best. Unreal skills and even better teachers. It completely changed the way I ride. I thought the price was expensive at first but it was worth every penny. The DR200 I was on was perfect for my riding and practice to work on skills. Would’ve left 10 stars if possible!"
- William Swan, March 2026
"Wyatt, Dan, and Q were all very professional, informative and encouraging. Learned a lot and will be taking more classes, could’ve done with more slow speed practice and tight cornering but overall I highly recommend."
- Bor Skini, August 2025
"I am so impressed with this company I felt enthusiastically inspired to express this as a recommendation to all who have even the slightest interest in bicycles, e-bikes, motorcycles of all kinds and even drivers. We all share the road, and though there are more divers than motorcyclists, becoming aware of the safety for all vehicles, and human lives traveling in or around them, is such a key cornerstone anthem we should always be striving for. This class did just that..."
- Ruthie Sunshine Lomprey, July 2024
"The experience was overall very fun, I enjoyed taking the class over the past weekend. My instructor was very patient and was available at any time during the hands on training to answer questions that we had. She always gave clear and detailed instructions and even demonstrated herself a few of the exercises that we did. Overall 10/10 experience, highly recommended for beginners like myself"
