"Fantastic experience. Joey, Erin, and Anthony were great instructors! I had taken this same course at a Harley dealer, but the range guy there was a bit of a jerk... I mean I get it, with safety and all... And a lot of people don't pay attention to simple instructions... But c'mon, it's just a beginner class 🤷🏻‍♂️. At Pacific, it was A GREAT learning environment. And I loved the extra exercise at the end with them having us pretend that we were in traffic! I'm glad I signed up and will get some miles under my belt before I try the IRC! UPDATE: Just took the IRC and it's basically an advanced beginner course! Much less intimidating than what I thought it would be originally..."

"I really enjoyed my CMSP beginners course in San Bruno. The instructors give good advice, are enthusiastic, and are encouraging. I still have a ton to learn but I feel more confident that I have a good start after taking the course. Thanks Patrick, Q, and Kieran! You guys did a great job."

"The class was very informative and well put together. The teachers were awesome, (there's always 2) and this was my 2nd time taking a M1 safety class to get my M1 license after not riding for 3 years.. and needed to renew my M1 lic. It made a lot of sense to take the course again just in case I'd forgotten important safety tips, and I'm VERY glad I retook the course. I didn't realize I'd accumulated a few bad habits over the years that made me not as safe of a rider..."

"Every one of the instructors were clear, concise, and patient. Couldn’t recommend this course enough for anyone a little worried about starting off their motorcycle journey. They go over the basics of the bike, safety maneuvers and the importance of counter steering. Show up open minded and ready to mess up often."

"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"

"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."
