- Mike Vasquez, January 2026

"Awesome experience, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is interested learning to ride motorcycles and get your m1. Everyone was helpful and interested in helping you learn and get you comfortable on 2 wheels."

- Conlan Barrett, August 2025

"Just finished the course this past weekend and all 4 instructors were awesome. I recommend everyone who’s planning to ride to take this course. I wish I could remember their names but I can’t."

- Robert Teran, January 2026

"Good trainers, very good planned out routes. Always understand if asking questions, demonstrate tasks to make sure you understand them. I would highly recommend 👍🏽"

- Bradley Galloway, September 2024

"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."

- Noah Bell, August 2025

"Mark made the experience well worth it. The class was very remedial but for licensing purposes it was useful. He was patient with the other students that had no experience. I appreciate his time and knowledge. The other instructors were great as well."

- Joe Wells, September 2024

"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 😊"
