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!

"I had basically no experience on a motorcycle. The instructors were patient, extremely helpful, and had a good progression though the class for beginners. By the end of the riding portion I had a basic grasp of how to ride. I am by no means ready to hit the highway, but I am more than comfortable enough to ride and practice on my own on slow streets and get better on my own now that I know the fundamentals."

"Craig and Kurt were some of the best instructors I ve ever interacted with, very passionate about their craft and making sure you re learning safely and effectively. If you are interested in learning how to ride and get your M1 license, want input on relearning the basics, and/or learn advanced techniques, this is the place to do so."

"Two fantastic patient trainers and we got through day 1, it rained all day. Day two it was sunny and we were all ready to go. Thank you Isaiah and Lorenzo."

"Wow! These folks are true Pro’s. The online training prior to the beginning class was powerful. I learned so much and felt like I was already practicing in my mind before arriving. The in person/on bike part of the class was equally impressive. The teachers read each segment from a book and everything ran with military precision. That might sound boring or stiff, but after they made sure you got what you needed from the book, they added golden nuggets from their own experience..."

"First time ever touching a motorcycle, came out of the course with a heap of knowledge and fundamentals. Always more to learn, but as a beginner course I couldn’t really ask for more. Instructors were great at their job. They were patient and did very well at spotting and correcting my mistakes, so that by the end of it I was comfortable riding the bike. Highly recommend."
