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!


"A highly recommended, informative and thorough, course that covers all the basics, taught by extremely professional instructors and should be mandatory for any beginning rider. In attendance were riders of all levels of experience ranging from those who had never been on a bike to those who had ridden for years, but wanted to get back to the essentials. Also very fun, and it includes the driven test so you don’t have to take that part at the DMV once you’ve graduated."

"If you’ve ever wanted to ride a motorcycle, I highly recommend these phenomenal instructors! They’re so easy to work with and so kind. Stephanie at helping me out with scheduling, Chris was awesome with getting me the info I needed quickly, and Zack the instructor was so patient. I went from being terrified to ride, to zipping around and having a blast. My cheeks hurt from smiling"

"Absolutely fantastic experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training! Taking the class in Livermore was the best decision I've made since purchasing my motorcycle. Evie, my trainer, was exceptional—knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly supportive. The amount I learned here has significantly boosted my confidence on the road. The course is very professional, and the online module is well-designed and highly informative. I can't recommend this course enough; you won't regret it!"

"Great school! Great instructors: Craig, Chris and Ricky are all passionate about teaching others the ins and outs of safe motorcycling. 45 year rider with prior training and I learned new things. If your thinking about taking the course…do it!"

"Great way to learn how to ride. The course left me with much more confidence being on a bike then coming in. Learned about how to ride and the risk that come with it. Would gladly come again to take the more advanced classes."

"10/10 - I HIGHLY recommend them. This group is incredibly knowledgeable, and care deeply about the training they provide. I cannot recommend this organization any more highly. Erin(1), Erin(2), Steve, and Dillon were all PHENOMENAL instructors!!"

"The instructors were friendly and very knowledgeable. They were patient and gave me a lot of helpful tips when I was having trouble with the controls and following some of their instructions. Evie ran to help me when I fell over (thank God I wasn't going fast). I would have liked to spend more time getting used to the bike before starting maneuvers. It was my first time on a motorcycle and I never learned how to drive a car with a manual transmission so it took me a while to learn how to coordinate the clutch/switching gears with the acceleration..."
