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!

"Just completed the intermediate course. Long day. Hot range. Loved every minute of it. They’re not kidding about improving your skills in one day."

"Highly recommended. Can’t say enough about this crew. These are the experts. Training courses of multiple skill levels available. Riding needs to be taken seriously and riders need to be prepared for the unexpected to make every ride as safe as possible. PTM has a great team packed with knowledge and experience that can help make every ride that such safer. Classes like this should be mandatory before taking to the roads, no matter where you are..."

"I had a great time! Great instructors, very knowledgeable and gave good feedback. Generally patient people, but can be stern when they need to, as motorcycling is a very dangerous sport. Ending up passing the test at the end of my beginner lesson with 0 points taken off. Great school!"

- Karsen Garrity, June 2023

"Had a truly informative experience. All of the teachers are patient and more importantly, extremely knowledgeable. They want you to succeed and create an environment for you to ask as many questions as needed. I highly recommend taking basic courses here."

- Baltazar Lopez, January 2020

"Helpful staff. Knowledgeable instructors. You will definitely come out more confident in riding a motorcycle if you are a newbie. A con though: You better pass the written test the first time, or else they will charge you $75 to re-take it. I personally did not see the reason why. I mean, I took it during their business hour."

- Johnny Gonzalez, June 2020

"I feels so much more confident on the bike now! The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and patient with us. I would recommend anyone looking to get on a motorcycle to take this class first!"

"Amazing experience! Evie and Erin were incredibly patient and worked with me individually on skills that I struggled with and didn't make me feel bad for messing up. Joey brought the energy and encouragement and was fun to work with. There were many opportunities to practice the skills so the test at the end wasn't intimidating. I recommend this class for all noobs and for anyone who wants to learn how to ride the right way."
