"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. 👍"

"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."

- Iain McGinniss, May 2023

"The class was very well organized. All three instructors I had were kind, encouraging, and fun. They were very clear in communicating instructions and feedback. The class covered basic skills with a good amount of practice time. I had a great time and learned a lot. I’m excited to ride, and come back to take the next class."

"Great class and teachers. Q, Crusoe, and Dylan really did a great job, especially with coaching some of the first time riders. I used to ride a dirt bike when I was younger and I found this class a great refresher for getting back on the road and I highly recommend this taking courses here vs Bay Area Motorcycle Training (which I've taken before)"

- Jarod Maginot, April 2023

"This was the best class I have ever taken. The teachers were amazing, especially Craig. His guidance and teaching style was so approachable. So often teachers talk at you but not the case with this program. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!"

- Store 5234, November 2018

"I really enjoyed this motorcycle course. I have been riding for over two years and would consider myself an intermediate rider. The teachers were fantastic - Wyatt and another guy but I can’t remember his name :/ they were clear, fun and knowledgeable, and the course was set out really well. I was thankful that we did similar drills/exercises over and over again to really impress it into our memory and get it right, and like I said, the teachers were excellent ..."

- Jessie Randolph (volatileskies), October 2024

"The instructors made the class very enjoyable and fun. I appreciate their patience and assistance with all that had questions. I will recommend them to anyone who is planning to ride a motorcycle."
