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!


"If you’ve ever wanted to ride a motorcycle, I highly recommend these phenomenal instructors! They’re so easy to work with and so kind. Stephanie at helping me out with scheduling, Chris was awesome with getting me the info I needed quickly, and Zack the instructor was so patient. I went from being terrified to ride, to zipping around and having a blast. My cheeks hurt from smiling"

"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..."

"Although I’ve been riding for many years, this motorcycle safety course opened my eyes to so many important skills and situations I hadn’t experienced before. The instructors-, Isaac, Zach and the legendary Tony (BOOP)-were knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in helping every student become a safer rider. I highly recommend this course to anyone, no matter their experience level, and I’m already planning to take the intermediate class as well."

"Dillon, Crusoe, and Q are instructors of the highest quality. Great knowledge and really fun teaching style. The bikes and safety gear are good enough for learning - you’ll feel more than confident by the time you take the test. Great value too."

"PMT is an excellent choice for all your motorcycle training needs, hands down! Very professional, could not think of a better teacher for what I am looking for in furthering my competency as a motorcycle driver!!! Thank you!"

"Everyone was so kind and supportive, they never made me feel like I was dumb for not understanding something and made sure to explain everything clearly and in ways that were easy to understand. They obviously care about actually teaching people how to ride, not just pass the course or the test. I absolutely will be taking their intermediate and advanced courses once I have more experience riding, and am excited to learn more from them. Super knowledgeable and incredibly helpful..."

"I took a two-hour one-on-one session with Craig and it was the best investment I’ve made since I first hopped on a bike in 2008. We focused on slow-speed maneuvers and cornering drills that were different from what I’ve covered in multiple MSF courses. The skills I developed and the confidence I gained have made me a better rider. I am looking forward to taking the Intermediate Riding Course with PMT next!"
