"I had a great experience! It was fun, approachable, and appropriately suited for beginner riders. The instructors (Jose, Andrew, and Jacob) did a great job educating us, supporting us, and helping us apply proper technique while we learned. They also impressed upon us the real-world dangers that exist when riding motorcycles while teaching us how to actively avoid or manage those risks to the best of our ability. I highly recommend this course to anybody looking to start riding a motorcycle."

"The training was very useful, efficient and fun. I took the class in Livermore and the facilities are great and I didn’t feel rushed. A call out to our wonderful instructors - Dave, Erin and Anthony. It was nearly a 100F both days and they did a great job despite the heat. I would highly recommend this class."
