I am a dirt bike rider of some 40 plus years and found myself in need of getting on the right side of the law regarding being properly licensed. I looked for many training schools and this one was the right choice for me. First, it is set in the mountains (a place where I love to ride). Second, the instructors are great! Tom who runs the show has a great attitude and does a fine classroom (zoom) instruction. The track instructors, Zig and Dutch, were fabulous! The course is set up so you get to practice basic skills and improve upon the ones you already have. The instructors were always positive in their feedback and encouraged first time riders. They gave additional attention to those that need it and let a guy like me just ride and perform the skills they demonstrated. I still got feedback which was nice. Third, the bikes were lined up, warmed, and ready to go both mornings. The bikes are perfect for the task at hand. Very forgiving clutches, long first gear and a very low center of gravity. I ride a big red pig and never would have passed the DMV driving test with it. So this class was exactly what I needed. I highly recommend this school whether you are new to riding, just want to refresh your skills, or, in my case, need to get legal fast. read more

I recently took their basic rider course in Wrightwood, CA as a refresher since I hadn't ridden a motorcycle in about 4 years. Instruction was excellent and a lot of fun. I learned some new things, too. I definitely feel safer now. As a bonus, the Wrightwood area is absolutely beautiful. My only recommendation is that they get more Honda Groms for students to use. The Grom is not only a great beginner bike, it's also an absolute joy to ride. Footnote: I loved that little Grom so much that I bought one after completing the course. read more

Great course! I really learned some very helpful things. Steve is a great teacher, and he makes the class enjoyable and the concepts rememberable. You can tell he knows what he's talking about and that he really wants you to learn, and does a good job of showing you individually what you need to learn. I've been riding my Harley for two years, and thought I was a pretty good rider by now. I then took the DMV behind the wheel test without ever practicing, only to find out i wasn't as good as I thought. This class has increased my confidence and my skills and I highly recommend it to any rider, regardless of experience. I should have done it two years ago. read more

Save your money and look elsewhere. Friend's daughter was excited and wanting to learn to ride a motorcycle. Suppose to be 16 hours of instruction, only received 40 minutes of on-hand before being told she can go ahead and return the following day. After arriving on time, was told that another class was finishing and then lunch, return in an hour. She was there and after 30 more minutes of practice, was told a private lesson was available for $150 more?!? An hour of instruction for $350?!? Save yourself the disappointment and headache. You will have a much better chance of getting the practice you pay for going with ANYBODY other than these cons. read more

If you want to really learn how to control your bike, rather than just hang on for dear life, check out the classes in Wrightwood. I took the Advance Riding Clinic (ARC) from Steve and Tom. I learned so much. We had a real mix of riders in the class, and yet everyone learned something new. Wrightwood was a bit of a of a drive for me, but being in the cool mountain air means that my engine was less likely to overheat as we went through the drills. I plan to take this class again after I have had a chance to practice my new skills on the road. read more

This is an excellent school for motorcycle riders of all experience levels. I was able to take an advanced course to learn new skills and correct bad habits. Great camaraderie between instructors and students and they provided lunch for the group. read more
