"Absolutely outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!! Informative and well thought out!!! Instructors were obviously the Best of the Best!!! And I did review previous negative post. I do remember that in first class that one of the rules for dismisal was not showing up on time. Everyone in our class did what the Instructor told us in class, show up at least 15 minutes early. Too bad that guy felt entitled to not set his alarm clock properly and think that everyone else should wait for him!!!"

"I had an amazing time in early October here at Motorcycle Training Services Inc. Jon and his mate were outstanding! They were very knowledgeable, respectful, and fun. I cannot recommend this company highly enough, and I can't wait to come back to take the advanced training classes. Thank you!"

"Highly recommend this class for anyone who’s never rode a motorcycle before and is wanting to learn. The instructors here are amazing and definitely want to come back in the future and take their intermediate writing course."

"Suuuuuper informative and well laid out course, covering all the basics on what it takes to be a safe rider. Highly recommend before buying your first bike as this will be the perfect introduction and instill good habits before you have time to develop bad habits on your own. The class size isn't bad, capped at 12 riders which leaves plenty of room and time for personal instruction as well as riding exercises. My only complaint is the early hour that the class starts at, but that's necessary in order to get a full day of education in."

"I highly recommend this motorcycle safety course for anyone who needs a refresher or anyone who is new to riding. I never rode a motorcycle a day in my life until I took this course and I’m so thankful for the amazing instructors I had that helped me during my class and still use what they taught me in my riding today. Definitely coming back and taking their intermediate riding course to keep developing my skills!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend Learn to Ride HD! They took my completely uncoordinated16-year-old daughter and transformed her into a confident and safe rider. The instructors were patient and took the time to explain everything in a way that made it easy for her to understand. They broke down the steps and concepts, which really helped her gain confidence, even as someone with no prior experience..."
