"This place is the real deal. My instructor even shared his Arby's with me."
- Dustin Armstrong, November 2023
"Definitely would recommend this to anyone beginners! I'm genuinely surprised on how much I was able to learn in the two days I attended the training! Dylan and Chris I believe was his name were really patient with me and wouldn't ever show signs of frustration or stress when I would make mistakes. Definitely will consider their intermediate course."

"Don't worry about not having a bike. They have those. However, if it's our rainy season....bring rain gear you will still be having class!!"
- Jessica Hirsch, February 2026
"Taking this class made me so much more comfortable on a bike then I previously was. After taking the online courses and the driving classes I learned more and felt more confident. The instructor was clear and helpful, wasn't afraid to answer our questions."
- Dustin Phenix, February 2023
"Awesome very much so worth the money learned a lot of stuff Stephen black did a wonderful job very very happy that I went and did that thanks again to all of you"
- Randy Cose, December 2025
"Fantastic class. I thought I knew about riding a motorcycle. I learned so much more. I highly recommend taking this class. The instructor takes his time with each student to ensure you understand. Well worth the money."
- Thomas, July 2025
"Excellent experience. Instructors were capable, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They always had specialized feedback for each student after a practice exercise that I found very helpful in improving my technique. The course was informative and we had plenty of opportunity to practice on the bikes. Have already recommended to several friends who are looking to take the CMSP. The only downside was that most of the training bikes were very old and had seen better days..."
