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!


"The trainers were absolutely amazing. They gave reassurance to everyone to make sure they were comfortable on their bike. Erin and Wyatt work together flawlessly. Dave was a great trainer as well but it seems he has his own style of training versus the other instructors. I would definitely recommend this course. It was a fun class to take. Hope everyone stays safe riding ✌🏼"

"Excellent course and the instructors were on top of it. Awesome instruction from Q, Dillon, and Caruso! Safety was priority 1 with no exceptions. Course material was well handled, and there was lots of bike time to practice and get comfortable with what they taught. Recommend for any rider, with or without a permit!"

"Truly my "ride or die" cycling course. From the moment I signed up for the beginner's course at Pacific Motorcycle Training, I was met with professionalism and enthusiasm. The quality of the instruction I received was outstanding; my instructor demonstrated extensive knowledge and a passion for riding that was truly infectious. Each lesson was clear, concise, and built confidence as well as skill. I was impressed by the meticulous attention to safety and the way the instructors emphasized its importance throughout the training..."

"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..."

"I am so impressed with this company I felt enthusiastically inspired to express this as a recommendation to all who have even the slightest interest in bicycles, e-bikes, motorcycles of all kinds and even drivers. We all share the road, and though there are more divers than motorcyclists, becoming aware of the safety for all vehicles, and human lives traveling in or around them, is such a key cornerstone anthem we should always be striving for. This class did just that..."

"The beginning video and set your pace online intro was well done for visual based learners. The in person class was great! The instructors Jacob, Chris and Isaac were always more than willing to answer any questions at any time."
