"The instructors were excellent and really helpful in explaining the training, showing examples and then having the patience to teach you the practical application. The course was well organized and the rental bikes were brand new. Highly recommended."

"I came to the class very nervous and very worried because I'm an anxiety prone person when it comes to something that I know there's a test for afterwards. The instructors, Steve and Wyatt, were able to calm my nerves with their ability to clearly state and show through live demonstrations what was needed to be done. By the end of the course, I felt very confident that I learned enough to be able to ride a motorcycle in practice sessions without much fear of getting into an accident..."

"Truly my "ride or die" cycling course. From the moment I signed up for the beginner's course at Pacific Motorcycle Training, I was met with professionalism and enthusiasm. The quality of the instruction I received was outstanding; my instructor demonstrated extensive knowledge and a passion for riding that was truly infectious. Each lesson was clear, concise, and built confidence as well as skill. I was impressed by the meticulous attention to safety and the way the instructors emphasized its importance throughout the training..."

"The online theory training prepares you for the two day riding practical. Each instructor had our best interests in mind and were very skilled, understanding and professional. The class gave me a great foundation to build upon. Also kudos to them for teaching in the 110 afternoon heat!"

"Highly recommended! I haven’t been riding in 10 years so this beginner class was perfect! Instructors are very experienced and knowledgeable. I learned so much about what I didn’t know."
- Roy Selvidge, April 2024
"Even though I have many years of riding experience this course really helped me identify some things to help me really improve my riding abilities. Seth and Steven were really great and gave me great feedback throughout the sessions. Highly recommend this course for anyone who has never ridden a motorcycle to those with some experience."
