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 a great experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training. The online course was fun and easy to follow while also being very informative. It changed my opinion on a few items. The in-person training was so much fun - even though it rained a bit 😃. The instructors were friendly and knowledgeable and the course was set up well. I plan to take the intermediate and advanced classes next."

"The class was great! It's obvious that the team of instructors truly care about teaching and making sure you learn. I met about 6 of them in my two days and they were all fantastic! They also offer private and additional courses if interested. The mornings are cold, especially in the winter so make sure to dress warm...bonus...the morning sunrise is nice too. I definitely recommend!"

"Excellent experience. Instructors were capable, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They always had specialized feedback for each student after a practice exercise that I found very helpful in improving my technique. The course was informative and we had plenty of opportunity to practice on the bikes. Have already recommended to several friends who are looking to take the CMSP. The only downside was that most of the training bikes were very old and had seen better days..."

"Very good experience, 10/10 would recommend. The trainers are very experienced and are nice, they made everything easy to follow and complete, and they are super patient with you no matter what. Definitely worth it if you are a new rider or looking to see if you would like to ride a motorcycle some day."

"Great instructors, great group of learners, and good conditioned bikes and well-run course. Special shout-out to Lorenzo and the other instructor from the 1/24 course (sorry I forgot your name)."

"I completed the basic safety course this past weekend with Thomas and Erin. Great instructors - patient and really helpful! It was my first time riding a motorcycle so I was pretty intimidated at first but much more confident and comfortable by the end of day 2. Huge thanks to the instructors for their time, patience, and dedication. Highly recommend!"

"10/10 - I HIGHLY recommend them. This group is incredibly knowledgeable, and care deeply about the training they provide. I cannot recommend this organization any more highly. Erin(1), Erin(2), Steve, and Dillon were all PHENOMENAL instructors!!"
