"My husband and I had an awesome experience with Learn to Ride. They have a perfectly crafter curriculum, in my opinion, that goes through the fundamentals of motorcycle riding and captures the importance and responsibility to comes with operating bikes on the roads. We did the zoom class on Friday evening, and though sitting in a class is no one's idea of an ideal Friday night. Mark, our instructor was great at holding our attention, keeping the class interesting and moving at a good pace..."

"I had such a great experience with Learn to Ride VC! All the instructors were very knowledgeable, answered every question patiently, and made sure we all felt confident on the bike. This was my first time riding, and I learned so much while also really enjoying the process. I would highly recommend this class!"

"It’s worth the price. I have never been on a motorcycle and was kinda nervous but I always wanted to be on a bike since I was a kid. I finally jumped the gun and took a spot on the course. The instructors: Jose and Garrett(I think) really do care and teach you how to ride and really helped build my confidence on it. I learned how to shift, turn, the dangers of riding, statistics, etc. My favorite thing I learned is how to use “SPAT”leaning the bike to turn(yes, they provide the bikes based on your height..."

"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!"

"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!"
