"I was so impressed with how patient and thorough every instructor at Learn to Ride was. I had zero experience in anything motorcycle related but their in-class and on range sessions made sure I felt comfortable before leaving the course. I would highly highly recommend taking their course if you’ve ever been interested in learning to ride a motorcycle!"

"I could not be happier that I decided to go to Learn to Ride Vc for this experience. My instructor’s Mark and Jose were amazing— super patient, knowledgeable, and always had a positive attitude. I learned so much and can’t wait to apply it all in real life! 10/10 recommend 😊"

"Ryan and Wolfe were amazing. I had not been on a bike before, or even had any experience in a manual car. My intention was to be on a moped, but wanted to take a class for road safety. My boundaries were pushed, my confidence boosted, and now I feel where I stand in the real world. I recommend taking the class for literally anyone getting on two wheels in any capacity. Thank you Ryan and Wolfe!"

"My experience at learn to ride VC was a life changing one. The instructors were humorous but ultimately dedicated to teaching life saving skills. I took the two day weekend course. I arrived at 7 am and was greeted with warm smiles and coffee. The instructors took care of house cleaning business and then proceeded to start making jokes and teaching us invaluable knowledge about riding. The presentations were clear, succinct, and provided a strong foundation for learning how to ride motorcycles..."

"Can't say enough good things about RIDE VC program. I highly recommend it. It's the best way to hone your skills to stay safe, get a discount on motorcycle insurance, and go about your new found freedom of riding to live, and living to ride."

- Lance Winslow, August 2025

"Got the pleasure of taking the beginner course and it was a blast! The instructors are passionate and just as excited to have you there as you are. If you go there to learn and have fun, you will leave a confident rider, certificate in hand. Additionally, don't let the written course material go to waste. It'll help you glide through DMV written test. Stay attentive and the course pays for itself and is definitely worth it. I'll be back for the Intermediate and Advance courses in the future for sure!"
