"Loved the training. Had great instructors and everyone loves to teach. It was a place i felt great with learning and making mistakes so they could teach me to be better. Location was perfect as well. Nothing better than being at Laguna Seca."
- Michael Jonathan Cunningham, July 2025
"I have been riding almost 45 years. The skills I learned from the instructors has changed my way of riding and makes it so much easier to control my bike and very much safer. I was doing it the hard way. A big thank you to all the instructors"

"I had ZERO experience on a motorcycle and by the first day of behind the wheel class I was riding!! Great course! It’s a lot to take in but the instructors were very patient, friendly and knowledgeable! Dylan and Tony were awesome!! They had great chemistry and made the course fun!! Tony is super supportive and encouraging and Dylan can be hard on you but when he praises you, you know you did a good job! Love the enthusiasm of those two. Will definitely sign up for the intermediate class in the future."
- Jamie Machado, November 2023
"Instructors were very helpful, patient and professional. The class had not boring either."
- One Romero, September 2020
"Q, Patrick, and Kieran were outstanding! They made the class very engaging and super fun learning environment. The class consisted of 9 students and the instructors did very well managing the group. They showed us great patience and kindness in class whenever we made mistakes. The instructors made sure that you’re capable of doing the riding exercises as safely as possible and develop good habits from it and hoping you’ll be able to apply those habits when you start riding out in the real world..."

"I’m still in shock. I was actually able to ride a motorcycle and (!!) it was fun. It was my first time on a bike and first time using a clutch. The course breaks the drills down to baby steps that build on each other. I felt uneasy the majority of the first day but never unsafe. Chris and Dylan deserve all your money if you want to learn to ride. They are excellent coaches who balance constructive criticism and encouragement. Every bit of coaching made me feel safer and more confident on the bike..."
- Erica Rayworth, February 2025
"All instructors were fantastic, especially Evie. I felt no pressure, learned at my own pace, got invaluable feedback, and learned the skills necessary to operate a motorcycle. Highly recommended."
