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 took the beginner course here. Before taking this course, I had never been on a motorcycle. Now I can say I can confidently operate a bike and be safe. Wyatt, Erin, and Q are great instructors! They are super knowledgeable and patient. Throughout the course, they did a great job at building up everyone’s confidence and preparing them for the assessment. I will definitely be taking the intermediate course once I get my own bike!"

"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!"

"Went here January 2023. Super great experience. It was my first time using a clutch, and everything was explained extremely clearly. I am going to get my permit as soon as my form comes in the mail. Strongly reccomend to anyone wanting to get into motorcycles safely. If I can do it at 17 then anyone can."

"All instructors were fantastic, especially Evie. I felt no pressure, learned at my own pace, got invaluable feedback, and learned the skills necessary to operate a motorcycle. Highly recommended."

"I was a little on the fence about taking a motorcycle training course. I live in Colorado most of the year and we are not required to take a safety course. I thought I knew everything there was to know about riding and therefore, the course might be a waste. I was back home in Woodland recently and took the course at PMT after my wife bought it for me for a bday gift. I learned so many things about riding that I didn’t know before. The instructors are super knowledgeable and do a great job passing on their wisdom..."

"Pacific Motorcycle Training will provide the basic tools needed, preparing new riders to get out there and mix it up safely with the four-wheeled masses. The numerous instructors are very knowledgeable and give an appropriate dose of confidence to new riders, while offering valuable reminders and safety tips to the more seasoned rider. They also offer more advanced riding classes. Totally worth the time, money, and your life"
