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!


"Pacific Motorcycle Training was a superb class. Even though I had ridden a motorcycle before, they still taught valuable habits and lessons in the beginner course. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable, and the whole experience was immensely valuable. I would highly recommend to anybody interested in riding a motorcycle!"

"The instructors, Q, Steve, and Evie were very knowledgeable. They explained things well and kept everything on time. They were able to identify when I needed special instructions and pulled me out to coach me on proper techniques and gave me specific information that helped me improve."

"George and Isaac did an awesome job! Not only did they give an amazing presentation but they made sure we had tons of fun! We learned so much in such a little time but they made sure we understood concepts such as SPAT and SIPDE. I feel really comfortable with approaching turns and safety maneuvers. The classroom instructors were awesome too! Very engaging and knowledgeable!"

"I completed the basic safety course this past weekend with Thomas and Erin. Great instructors - patient and really helpful! It was my first time riding a motorcycle so I was pretty intimidated at first but much more confident and comfortable by the end of day 2. Huge thanks to the instructors for their time, patience, and dedication. Highly recommend!"

"Took this training course and never been on a motorcycle. I took the classroom portion on eRider prior to practice riding range. This made it easy as it was going at my own pace. Really get to focus on what was being taught. The first day of riding portion, they’ll teach you where the controls are on the bike and a lot of slow maneuvering and Taking corners. Thomas and Mark was very patient. I was tentative but they kept reminding me to trust the process..."

"A must for anyone thinking of riding. The instructors are amazing and actually care about you learning vs just trying to get you through the lesson. The exercises are useful and to the point, none of the time is wasted on anything you wouldn’t use on the road."

"Incredible school and training. Big shoutouts to amazing instructors Wyatt, Steve, and Kevin. They are incredibly attentive, tolerant, and patient professionals. I felt so comfortable being guided through their lessons. The school also provides helmets and even shoes if needed."
