"I had a great experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training. The coaches were super knowledgeable, upbeat, and made the class a ton of fun. I would highly recommend their training classes to all levels of riders. I noticed a remarkable different in my skill level since training with them and look forward to going back!"

"Great course even if you have zero riding experience like me. Instructor Dillon struck a great balance between enthusiastic coaching, professional approach and having a good time. Lots of time actually riding and learning to handle the bike. You can bring your own bike if you check with the office first. My partner (who already rides) took this class with me and thought it was a significantly better class than other CSMP courses he has attended in the area..."

"Absolutely fantastic training for the newbie!! I was riding a motorcycle by the end of the day- it was fabulous! The teachers, both in the classroom and on the range, are all very experienced (10+years) riders. They stayed calm even when I didn't. The classroom instruction is thorough but not excessive; I would have loved a few more hours on the range since I was SO new. I will definitely be taking more classes with them!"

"The best motorcycle school with the very best instructors - relaxed, friendly, patient, and very supportive. When you do something right, they encourage you to keep riding well,. When you do something wrong, they gently point you in the right direction. In my class we had total beginners and still everybody passed because the instructors were so good. THANK YOU guys!"

"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."

"Took a training class here and was extremely impressed by the instructors. I had quite a few questions and they answered them all quickly and logically. Being a newbie rider I didn't have a ton of confidence at first, but halfway through the course I felt like I was riding like a pro. Will send my friends here and definitely recommend PMT for anyone getting into riding!"
