Motorcycle Riding Courses for Experienced Riders

Pacific Motorcycle Training

We offer three different options for riders who want to become better and safer on the road.

For New Riders

Learn the basics of riding safely in a controlled environment and receive the certificate that may waive the DMV riding skill test. Our friendly basic riding course was designed for people with zero experience on a motorcycle. We provide motorcycles and helmets for you to learn with.

For Experienced Riders

Become a better—and safer—rider using your own motorcycle with our Intermediate Riding Clinic. Or take your cornering and crash-avoidance skills to the highest level with our Advanced Riding Clinics, taught only by the best certified instructors in the Bay Area!

"As a person who rode for 18+ years then took a 35+ year break, the class was an excellent refresher. It helped me remember a lot of things (push steering for one) that I had long forgotten. The instructors were personable, friendly, professional and VERY knowledgeable. All in all, I feel it was an excellent investment in time and money. I highly recommend this class for ALL beginners and those of us that have had a long hiatus from riding."

"I took the January 24 course with Craig and Evie as the instructors. Great coaching, great drills, and great classroom explanations! Great meeting all the other students and learning from all the feedback. I would highly recommend the intermediate course and will be taking an advanced course in the future!!"

"I rode a motorcycle a long time ago. I stopped riding in 1992 and about 7 years ago I let my license go . I found it to be very informative. The instructor was wonderful. I'm going to take their advanced class."

"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..."

"Craig, and his crew at Pacific Motorcycle Training are pros, nuff said. They know their stuff and make a conscious effort to pass it along to you. If your goal is to know how to ride and be safe doing it, you've come to the right place. Prepare to feel confident on the open highway after completion; this course is the real deal."
- Bkandel ., September 2019
"The beginning video and set your pace online intro was well done for visual based learners. The in person class was great! The instructors Jacob, Chris and Isaac were always more than willing to answer any questions at any time."
