"The instructors Zac, Olivia and Mark were all amazing, very patient knowledgeable. I walked away with new knowledge and skills I was never aware of even after riding for years but self taught. So, if you think you know it all. It doesn't hurt to take the class if you haven't done so and just read thru the handbook. Even to refresh. A big thank you to the team."

"Absolutely amazing experience with Pacific Motorcycle Training! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I just completed the 2-day CMSP course (May 28-29) at the Marine Corps Reserve Center in San Bruno and I left with not only a passing grade but also a huge confidence boost. What made this course stand out: • The instructors are SO patient and genuinely care about each student's progress. They take the time to explain every drill — Box, Cone Weave, Quick Stop, Swerve — and break down the techniques in a way that's easy to understand..."

"Wyatt & Isaac were very kind and focused on fundamentals, they were very fair as far as pass or fail and they also followed the cmsp book to the letter. Thank you for doing a great job!!"

"Our two days of training with our instructor Q was great. The helmet that they loaned me for me alright and was in great condition. The motorcycles area smaller and off brand for the most part. Some throttles and clutches were really old to the point where some of us had to kick the shifter so much it just broke off. Overall the sign up process was also straightforward. I called in to make sure i got everything right, they called me back and patiently explained everything..."

"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..."

"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!"
