"Although I’ve been riding for many years, this motorcycle safety course opened my eyes to so many important skills and situations I hadn’t experienced before. The instructors-, Isaac, Zach and the legendary Tony (BOOP)-were knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in helping every student become a safer rider. I highly recommend this course to anyone, no matter their experience level, and I’m already planning to take the intermediate class as well."

"Fantastic beginner motorcycle course. I gained a wealth of crucial knowledge and feel far more confident to get out on the road on a motorcycle. All of the instructors were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. Will definitely be back for the intermediate course."

"I took the January 24 course with Craig and Evie as the instructors. Great coaching, great drills, and great classroom explanations! Great meeting all the other students and learning from all the feedback. I would highly recommend the intermediate course and will be taking an advanced course in the future!!"

"Instructors were fantastic, and you could really tell they put their heart into everything. The equipment they provided was also clean and the bikes on selection were a large variety allowing the rider to tailor what kind of bike they might want to ride when it’s all said and done. Highly recommended this spot!"
- Allan Rotich, October 2025
"The instructors- Chris, Alex and Isaac, were incredibly kind and helpful, and made sure everyone in the course got the skills they needed to be more comfortable and informed riders. I could not recommend these guys and this course enough for anyone looking to get into being a safe rider on the road"
