"I had my M1 motorcycle license and this was a refresher course for me. I am glad I took this course because I learned a lot from very experienced instructors. I could not believe people who could not balance on the motorcycle on day one was riding at high speed between cones at the end of second day. So even if you are afraid of looking at motorcycles, they teach you to ride it and enjoy it. Thanks guys, you are great. You save a lot of lives."

"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!"
