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!

"Great experience. Instructors were very patient, thorough, and professional. Would highly recommend for anyone who’s never taken a class whether they are a complete novice or an experienced rider they can benefit from a formal overview of the fundamentals of riding."

"Both instructors, Christine and Earl, were great. They were in sync throughout the day. They were very knowledgeable and knew how to effectively deliver constructive feedback."

- Mike Garmon, April 2024

"Dylan, Chris, and Q were all excellent instructors! I genuinely feel so much more safe and confident on a motorcycle now, and definitely recommend anyone thinking of riding (even if you're just riding Revel scooters around SF like I am!) to do the class, totally worth it."

"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..."

"Excellent training, friendly and knowledgeable instructors."

- Ralf Schallenberg, June 2024

"Instructors (Chris and Sheila) were awesome, knowledgeable but also used humor and personal stories to help us remember things better. Learning how to ride on the range was much more intense than I expected - went from learning what the clutch and throttle is on the bike to practicing weaving around cones, taking a quick turn, upshifting and then swerving past an obstacle in the road. Great class overall!"

"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."
