"Great experience. Learned a lot of fundamentals at this course and this made me more confident in my riding abilities. Instructors were very professional and knowledgeable. Instructors also kept it real and gave a lot of 1 on 1 when needed. I will recommend anyone that is trying to get there M1 license to attend this course."

"I came in here with 0 riding skills and signed up for the basic level course. With our small group of students, the instructor Zach payed careful attention to each students skill level and making sure we all performed to the best of our ability by explaining what it expected of us. Before certain drills, he would run them down by himself so we understood how to perform, then we got a chance to practice with the bike off, then on. If some students were performing better, he gave them other pointers to look out for while riding, and if we were in need of more help, he provided examples to help us understand how to ride safer..."

"Great instructors who brought patience, humor and first class professionalism to the serious topics covered through this well thought out program. The bikes are adequate for the job and the location is ideal with great views and no distractions. The toilets are quite a walk and during our visit could have done with a few lightbulbs being replaced. The 6 to 1 instructor to pupil ratio is ideal in providing quality learning."
