"I had an excellent experience during the CMSP basic course with Pacific Motorcycle Training in the Monterey/Salinas area. I have been a passenger on a motorcycle before, but had never rode one by myself. The instructors for our course, Dillon and Chris, were enthusiastic, cared for our safety, and made everyone feel welcome regardless of experience level. They made me even more excited to begin my journey as a motorcycle rider."

"Fantastic class. I thought I knew about riding a motorcycle. I learned so much more. I highly recommend taking this class. The instructor takes his time with each student to ensure you understand. Well worth the money."

"I had a great time taking this course! The instructors Craig and Issac, were patient with me and answered all of my questions. (I hope I didn't ask too many!) They were very informative and made me feel confident, and now I can be a better rider and also a better driver too! I would recommend this course to anyone in the Bay area no matter what level of rider you are."

"Fantastic, I would highly recommend anybody who is contemplating riding or, is riding a motorcycle to attend. The course work and instructors have given me the basic tools required to learn how to ride a motorcycle correctly as well as of course, a taster of how much fun riding a motorcycle can be."

"Lots of fun! Plan on continuing with the Intermediate and Advanced Courses. Great location... I drove from Sac to avoid the 100 deg days. Instructors: Tony, Q, Steven, and Dillon were each awesome. Great conclusion by Dillon making sure we understand our level of experience... saving lives."

"Very great place to get your license as a beginner if you don't want to take the dmv test! Instructors Wyatt and Isaac were amazing! Picked up new skills even though I already knew how to ride. 10/10"
