"Very good experience, 10/10 would recommend. The trainers are very experienced and are nice, they made everything easy to follow and complete, and they are super patient with you no matter what. Definitely worth it if you are a new rider or looking to see if you would like to ride a motorcycle some day."

"I had basically no experience on a motorcycle. The instructors were patient, extremely helpful, and had a good progression though the class for beginners. By the end of the riding portion I had a basic grasp of how to ride. I am by no means ready to hit the highway, but I am more than comfortable enough to ride and practice on my own on slow streets and get better on my own now that I know the fundamentals."

"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."

"Morning course 16-17 August 2025 Basic I had a fantastic experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training in Livermore! Everything was well-organized from start to finish. The instructors (Wyatt, Joe, the blonde female instructor — I can't remember her name (so sorry)) did a great job explaining every part of the course, and they were always available to answer any questions. They were encouraging and supportive throughout, which really helped build confidence, especially for beginners..."

"Had a great experience. Came in not knowing anything about riding a motorcycle and learned a lot. The instructors were great."

"I had a terrific experience at the two-day basic training course. The programming was extremely well-organized, and the instructors were both skilled and extremely supportive and encouraging. They gave really helpful individualized attention even in the midst of the large-group instruction. I also felt they were truly committed to the safety and success of their students. I will recommend this course widely and return again for more advanced instruction."

"Great class, highly recommend. Seth and Chicoda are really great coaches. They were both patient, kind, and personable. They made all levels of riders feel comfortable. No matter how long you’ve rode, you can definitely take some good information with you. Don’t hesitate - well worth it! Thanks again!"
