I would like to thank Taylor and Bobby to spending many hours to help me improve and become more comfortable on the the new bikes that they had. I would put there that if you been to other course then you are use to a lower bikes which are more of a cruiser but the bikes that this school had are more a sport bike type. I think it's called dual sport. I could be wrong but after speaking with Taylor who is a instructor at the course. He told me why they shift more to the sports bike then cruiser is because the rebel which is lower and easier to ride in my personal preference was because of the ABS which are more on modern sports bike and a lot of us are here to learn how to ride a sports bike style then a cruiser especially those "speed demons". After being allowed to come back many times. I could tell that I have improved a lot. I will now list some pros and cons which I believe could help new bikers understand. Thank you Taylor and Bobby for being patient with me and helping me become a better rider Pros: *Taylor and Bobby was really helpful and understand. * new bikes so have easier find the fiction zone * really helpful staff "Christie" *didn't know about this but if your uncomfortable they will help and change instructors if certain personality doesn't fit between one of the instructor and you. Con: * The beginning when getting used to the friction zone .Wish we had alittle bit longer time on getting use to the bike and being comfortable. * Having interactive learning when the group is split into two groups helped me a lot. * Allowing students to see the the course we need to do on the manual helps since some people are visual learner based on books then road since we can see it from the high viewpoint and giving people option to see the riding course on the manual and pin point helps a lot and then one of the instructors riding the course could help ask better questions and become better riders in the end In my opinion. * Providing tips on how to not stall the bike instead of just saying you released the clutch too quick. For example, you can tell the students who are stalling while riding to walk the bike by counting 1 to 5 on the step while releasing the clutch since that is a tip I learned from zoom classroom which helped me become more proficient on finding the friction zone and finding when to put small amount of throttle so that the bike doesn't stall. These are all my comments and hope that people who come to this course have fun and pass so we can see each other on the road as a rider. read more

They were excellent for 1 day course intermediate. Mr Schmidt was able to test our abilities most of the day. The only thing you need to worry about is put your front tire in the circle and concentrate. For the first part and have some experience, shifting the gears and operating the clutch and you'll be fine the bikes are a little small for me but we got used to them. Thanks read more

Bobby and Taylor were amazing instructors! They were patient, given that I have never ridden a motorcycle, but "real" with me what I needed to work on. I appreciated all the feedback because it helped me improve my skills and I can say that I feel safe, confident, and SO excited to now go get and ride a bike of my own! This is not just a "pass" class, the point of this class is making sure you are both safe and ready to ride on the street, whether you have ridden before or not. They give feedback to every single rider, giving positive reinforcement and telling us what we can work on. It is a very relaxing environment, and they understand everyone learns at their own pace. The classroom portion was also great, concise and informative. Thank you for your time and energy, Keep up the great work! :) read more

Highly recommended. They were awesome, professional, kind, helpful and nice. I have never ridden motorcycle before. I saw some bad reviews on yelp, so I was kinda afraid that I was going to fail. However, they were really nice and answered all my questions immediately, and they made sure if I understood what I was supposed to do at the range. Even I made a mistake and almost dropped the motorcycle, they nicely taught me what I should have done and what I could do from next time. They never stopped encouraging me by cheering me up. I am a also international students, and I dont really speak and understand English well. So I told them I feel comfortable by following other riders and look what I was supposed to do, then they let me follow other drivers immediately. They were like " I got you! No problem!" Writing test was not hard at all. Please make sure you scan the material before you take multiple choice test. read more

The 3 day class was very informative. Chris was my instructor. They were all very patient and helpful. Mind you, the bikes aren't brand new, it had some beating but it works. They provide water but not food. If you're in the cafeteria, bring cash for the vending machine. There is a vending machine and a change machine. The change machine will spit out dollar coins, unfortunately some of the machine doesn't accept the coin dollars... just bring $1 dollar bills. Thursday night: sit in class. You get to learn all the laws and rules of riding. You also get a feel of what you need to do during your riding course and what to expect. Saturday: all day field practice. You'll learn about your bike. You'll learn how to ride straight, how to turn, where your eyes and head needs to be. There will be a lot of exercises to help you build confident. They will also do some demos to show you what needs to be done. Sunday: all day field practice. You learn how to swerve, weave, and more turning. This is also test day. So be prepared. They're going to test you pretty much everything you've learned. Then you go into the written test. Do study, there are things covered in the class, but some are already in the booklet they give you in PDF email format after your register. Overall, I really enjoyed the class although I was a bit nervous at first. And yes, you might be sore after Sat, but you'll get used to it. read more

The program is awesome and well laid out, but the program isnt what motivates me to write this review. What got this place 5 stars from me is Bobby! He is probably one of the most righteous human beings I've ever come across and teaching is certainly his calling. When you catch on to what he's saying, he lights up and is genuinely excited with you. When you get it wrong, he is patient and encouraging. Even when I crashed, he was all about making sure I was ok in every way! I felt so stupid and embarrassed, but he reassured me a million times over. I didn't pass, for obvious reasons, but when i reschedule I'll definitely be asking for him specifically. Also... when they say look through the turn... THEY MEAN IT! read more

Great experience! 3 day class was $258 and that includes helmet, gloves, and bike. The instructors were professional, very helpful, and kind. Make sure you show up on-time (or early), bring your I.D. and wear the write shoes/clothes. They give you all the tips and help to learn how to maneuver a motorcycle safely. Would definitely recommend this company to anyone in the area looking to take the class. The class takes place in the corporate Albertson's cafeteria and back parking lot. read more

I just finished my class today. The reason I attended was to get a CA motorcycle license (I only have a Norwegian one). Due to having some experience previously, the first part was relatively easy. But the last day was both educational and challenging for everyone in the class. I am very glad to see that the instructors are extremely focused on safety and took great care of all the participants. All riders that passed this class deserved to pass, and are ready to ride in traffic. Great class, great instructors, and well worth my time and money! read more

I enjoyed taking this class. Not only do they go over basics of motorcycle riding, once you are more comfortable they will go over better practices while riding and they provide you with many tips. The classroom portion is very informative. The actual riding portion was fun. Taylor, Bob, and Mark are very helpful and patient. Don't show up late. Once class begins, they do not want to back track for late comers at the expense of the other students. Overall great experience and highly recommend. :) read more

I haven't ridden in over 30 years and was a little nervous about the class Information giving in the classroom is informative and important do the pre homework Everything that is on the written test is gone over in class and is in the book it's important to read it and highlight it. Don't take it for granted don't go out go home rest and study Ryan was my instructor during the course riding he was patient and professional he answered questions and made sure that we understood the course and what was required before we begin the demonstrations were likewise important to watch. If you pay attention actively listen and do your homework you'll have no problem with this course. read more

These guys are absolutely awesome! I had never even touched a motorcycle before this course and I ended up passing and feeling extremely comfortable on the bike. I am nervous person too... They are very patient and understand that everyone learns at their own speed. The in-class session is also long enough to learn but not so long that you get bored and want to fall asleep.. especially since you will have been on the range for 5 hours. Keep doing what you're doing gentleman, great course! read more

I took the IRC course. I hadn't ridden for 12 years so wanted to touch up on my riding skills. The one-day class far exceeded my expectations, with sound instruction on vision, throttle control, cornering, emergency braking, swerving. Jim was a fantastic instructor, who was very patient even with the riders with less experience and a slower learning curve. I highly recommend this class with Jim as the instructor. I can't speak to any other class they teach or any other instructors. read more

I recently took the motorcycle training course on 9/22, 9/24, and 9/25. Passed with flying colors without ever riding a motorcycle before. It is not an easy course though. There were a handful of people that did not pass the riding skills test. The instructors can be aggressive at times but they do that for your own good. They drill these tactics into your brain so it becomes second nature. The weeknight class consists of pure lecture, discussing the handbook. Saturday is mostly riding then some lecture in the classroom. Sunday starts off with additional riding, the actual riding skills test, then the written test in the classroom. One woman in my group took the course using her own motorcycle so just check with them beforehand if you want to do the same. read more

My son and I both were in Jim Schmitt class yesterday. My son a new rider and I very experienced but wanting a tune up course. We both got alot out of this class. We brought our own bikes some students used the schools bikes. I highly recommend this class to all. Jim was very good at making everyone feel comfortable no matter what their skill level was. Jim was very humble but highly skilled in demonstrating the proper technique. Very qualified teacher. And great location to hold class. read more

Best Motorcycle safety course in the O.C! The instructors are very knowledgeable. If you have questions ask away! This class is not easy but manageable, I had no motorcycle experience coming in to the class and did great but still managed to fail the riding test. Why? I let it get to my head and ignored the help from Taylor(instructor). Anyways the course is three days Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Class the first day, range/class on Saturday and finish it strong with range and the tests on Sunday. Pass the written test 100% and receive a free class shirt! Overall great experience and skills learned! PS- I passed read more

Just to let you all know, the M&M Motorcycle Training and OCMT is actually the same place. That said, I had been wanting to learn for a very long time and after getting the funds to do so, signed up. You will have to book way in advance as the classes fill up fast. I reserved my spot about two months prior. The instructors (Vincent, Bob and Ryan were the guys who did my instructing) were all very friendly and just very pro. Being 5'3, Bob (who was my range instructor) made sure I was okay with the bike height I got originally and decided to switch with another student. Glad I did. We did a lot of cornering moves and just general getting to feel comfortable riding. It was an interesting group because some were actually motorcycle owners who needed a safety course because they never got their licenses or the bikes they had were too large to use for the driving portion at the DMV. For those out there with that problem, this course actually can be used as your driving portion for the license test at the DMV. You would still have to take the paper test but that saves you having to do that there. Plus you have way more time to practice at this course. I made some friends, some of whom weren't exactly pleased with their range instructor. We were divided up into three groups so though other reviewers here say to ask for a specific instructor, you are really only just assigned a group. Those same friends did not seem to be really compatible with their instructor. I didn't have him so I can't say either way. There were three days in the course: an entirely in-class day and two range days with a bit of in-class work afterwards. I took this course in early October and I was very glad I got the early morning class at 6am. By noon, the heat was hitting the 90s and the afternoon class was up next. And to be in a jacket at that hour was pretty heinous. Having an a/c class session afterwards was very nice indeed. Just pay close attention and take notes. The manual is very important so read that from cover to cover and also get a hard copy of the DMV manual, which has a bit more information that you need. I really can't speak highly enough of this place and their wonderful instructors, especially Bob. If you want to read a more in-depth review, I do have a link to my blog in my profile. Have fun and motor safe! This is a sweet way to spend a weekend! read more

Literally just walked in the door after completing the basic course and I cannot say enough good things about the instructors. The first classroom session Vincent did an excellent job covering the course outlined in the workbook. Often expanding on the text and giving real life experience. Range days.. Bobby and Taylor are awesome! These guys have a wealth of knowledge that they were more than happy to share. Nothing to be worried or intimidated about with these two. They give you all the tools you need to succeed. Personable, down to earth, these guys make learning fun. Cheesy as that sounds it's true. Was hard to keep the smile off my face during both range days. Positive reinforcement, solid coaching to help you work out your rough spots, these are your guys right here. All in all, great beginner course. Great enviroment. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone that wants to learn how to ride. read more

To preface, I have been wanting to learn how to ride a motorcycle both properly and safely for the past few years, but I just wasn't able to pull the trigger on a proper course for various reasons. I finally gave in and went with OCMT. To sum my experience in two words: amazing experience Bobby was my instructor for the weekend and took a first timer like myself and transformed my confidence within 2 days. I discovered that riding a bike was easier and safer than I originally thought. In addition to the riding portion, the classroom portion reinforced policies, procedures, and gear requirements when it comes to ownership and licensing of a motorcycle. I would 100% recommend this course to anyone who's considering the thrill of owning and riding a motorcycle. This class is a great starting spot and the instructors are incredibly patient and diligent with ensuring your safety and knowledge that comes with operation of such an awesome mode of transportation. read more

I passed the basic motorcycle safety course today! I am 53 and have never ridden a real motorcycle. I have ridden scooters, mopeds, and love bicycle riding. I can drive a manual car... but not an expert. The students varied allot with my guess about half with no experience. They started with baby steps (that I clearly needed) but quickly built one skill onto the next. The instructors were very patient as other reviews noted. I don't plan on making the same mistake a buddy made who passed a class but didn't purchase a bike for almost a year. He had a total of the 2 riding days in class. Lets just say his ride home from the dealership was exciting. I have found the cost to be the same everywhere so I went with the yelp review and was close to my home. So where do I feel I'm at? I don't think I could of learned more in the short period of time. I read allot and watched lots of U Tube. I am a beginner. I feel I am capable of driving to an industrial area near my house that is empty Sunday mornings and practice and practice and practice. They gave me the basics but to get good at it will require work. My 18 year old son is interested in the class. When it is time I will send him here. I can't have a bigger recommendation then the safety of my own son. read more

Orange County Motorcycle Training provided a positive, informative experience. I was so very pleased with the knowledgeable instructors. I have only had experience on a motorcycle as a passenger. I had never sat in the riders seat with the engine on until this past weekend. The first night in the classroom provided us with valuable information prepping us to begin our road training. Vince and Ryan were both full of valuable information in the classroom. They provided clear and concise instruction. Taylor and Bob were both kind and informative during the road training. They readily provided encouragement for newbies like me and had helpful tips for the seasoned rider. Head up! You go where you are looking. Be confident. I am so excited to receive my recommendation in the mail so that I may take my DMV written test on Friday. So stoked to buy a bike and ride with family and friends! I highly recommend Orange County Motorcycle Training to anyone looking to learn to ride or riders who want to sharpen some skills and get an insurance break. read more

Came back to get that tshirt. This motorcycle place is tops! Do yourself the favor and just enroll. You'll be able to make sure you have the training to avoid those dangerous situations. read more

Overall the riding class that was taught by Bobby was pretty good. He was patient, encouraging and gave excellent feedback with regard to missteps on the course. On the last day however, we had a student who was absent, so we had to combine both classes. What a nightmare! The instructor for the other class (Taylor) was awful! He seemed arrogant, hot tempered, and offered no real constructive feedback. In fact, on one of the exercises he stated something to the effect of, "I'm going to be honest, that performance was pretty bad...like, the worst I've ever seen!" In addition, as Bobby was introducing a new skill, he stated something to the effect of, "Well although we don't teach it like this (new skill), here's how I do it; but I don't recommend it for you guys because you are still new to riding." What is the point of bragging about what you do, if it can't be used by new riders? All in all, dude really was a pain and I don't recommend him AT ALL! read more

I was really excited to take the course and was ecstatic when I passed both the range and written tests. I came to the class having never ridden a motorcycle, and was anxious about understanding the gearing. The manner in which we were taught on the range was perfect for the newbie. We had time with all three range instructors, who were all great, patient, and encouraging. I am convinced that I left the class with 1) practical knowledge of how to operate a motorcycle, 2) riding technique knowledge that will keep me progressing in a safe manner, and 3) great advice on gear (super-important). This course is well worth the money and time spent, highly recommended! read more

I had a great experience I learned a lot I feel very comfortable now riding on the street I recommend OCMT, they do a really good job and know what they are doing. Study the handbook that is free after you make the purchase it will be in your email use Dropbox download it, it's helpful and also GO to the DMV and grab the dmv motorcycle handbook study both and you will pass the written test with no problem. The riding test is not hard just listen to what the instructors teach you, ask questions they will help you make sure you are learning, then you will pass easy peasy lemon squeeze. read more

I highly recommend the beginner's course it to any first timers; I had never riden a bike before until I got on the course. The instructors are phenominal; I can't say it enough. Bobby and Taylor are very patient, direct, informative, and friendly instructors who have over numerous years of experience to share with you. They are all about getting your confidence up before you get on the course; I made my share of mistakes on the course yet Bobby was very understanding and gave me pointers on how to correct the mistake. In the course of three days, I went from being able to turn the bike to doing correct turns. All of this is done on a closed course. ASK ALOT OF QUESTIONS! Get your answer before hopping on a bike. Making mistakes is welcome here. Other than that, I enjoyed the entire three days and I can't wait to be back for the courses to follow! read more

It had been more than 30 since I owned my last motorcycle. This course provided me with the training I needed to help me be more confident on my new bike. You will get everything you need in this course to prepare you for the open road. Every one of the instructors is patient, knowledgeable, and professional. Hats off to my road course instructor Adam and the other trainers and classroom instructors! read more

This course should be mandatory for all new riders. The knowledge, and skills taught over 3 days is invaluable, and life saving. The classroom class is full of information about the machine you will be controlling, and how it should be handled in he streets. The range days were really fun, and challenging. Mark, Bobby, and Taylor are really cool and down to earth. They are there to help us understand our motorcycles, and feel confident on them. I'll be back for advance and intermediate courses in a few months. read more

This was such an awesome experience. Everything from scheduling to completion of the course. I had to reschedule right out the gates unfortunately due to work, but Nicole made it a smooth and easy experience. Bob was my instructor, and I can't say enough great things about him. The class has a lot to offer in the period of time offered. I never felt rushed, and even with the strict time windows, they would stop and address any questions or concerns from anybody in the class. I would recommend to anybody who is new to riding, or has been riding for years. read more

I took this course in Fullerton a few weeks back and can't say enough about how good of an experience I had. My instructor was Taylor, who is super friendly and also really informative! He was always willing to answer every question I had and even gave me words of encouragement as I am a very petite girl who was struggling. Nonetheless, Taylor never gave me any negativity and only positive remarks and eventually made me begin to feel comfortable on the bike. Bobby, who was also the other instructor during the course, was also super helpful. Both have a lot of experience under their belt and are always willing to give as much information about motorcycle safety but also as a way to have fun while taking the course. I took this course just to experience something new and I definitely not only learned a lot but enjoyed it as well. Bobby and Taylor are awesome and I'm always recommending people that I meet or want to experience riding to OCMT! Keep up the good work! read more

Took the class in order to prepare for the DMV test, and to learn how to ride a motorcycle. With no experience with motorcycles I left with a basic understanding of how to ride a motorcycle and how it differs from other modes of transportation. I am a pretty difficult individual to teach, but Bob was able to hone in on what I was not understanding without me even asking. Would recommend this place based on Bob's instructional capacity. The company is military and veteran friendly as well. Highly recommended for those that are on the fence for riding, this class will help you decide if it is for you or not, and is more economical then buying a motorcycle and only later to discover that the hobby is not for you, so go spend a weekend with them and figure it out. read more

If you want to get your motorcycle license, and you live in Orange country or the surrounding areas, THIS IS THE WAY TO DO IT. Everyone at OCMT is awesome. They're really there to help you and guide you to understanding how a motorcycle works and how it operate it efficiently. If I had to take everything again, I'd absolutely do it through them. They're very clear on everything. All the instructors are awesome and they care about motorcycling and introducing new people to it. Sign up to OCMT if you want to get your motorcycle. Do it with them first, as it will really tell you if you want to ride or not. For me, it was hard to get off of the bike. Some of the courses they have you run through are a lot of fun (I ever asked to run one again because it was so much fun). OCMT is the best. read more

The basic rider safety course from OCMT was a great experience and a good investment in myself before riding. As a 30 yr old who had never ridden, I have to admit that I was intimidated about signing up for a course. I was very relieved to find that the instructors at OCMT were all very nice, experienced, and willing to help. They offered constructive advice and made sure you knew the realities of riding and how to be as safe as possible while riding. The company provides small cc motorcycles to learn on, so you can focus on learning the basic skills safely. If you don't own gear, they also have good condition gloves and helmets you can borrow at no cost. Overall, it was a great experience and I would recommend to anyone wanting to ride to go take a course at OCMT and then get riding! read more

I am a somewhat experienced rider, so I came in with the expectation of being bored and just sleeping through it. Not only was this not the case, but the instructors engaged and interested me in unlearning all the bad habits i had developed prior. I don't think i can say enough good words about the class to truly do it justice, but I will try. Bob was my course instructor. First off, I have to say his BMW bike is probably the coolest bike i have ever seen. He is also informative, patient and extremely helpful in maneuvering the course objectives and informing students with what they did wrong. For anyone that wants to get their class M1, whether experienced or not, i would recommend take this class rather than testing out at the DMV. This is a way better road to take. Pun intended! read more

If you're wanting to start riding - start here! Unless you have a super knowledgeable buddy who is willing to teach you techniques for hours in a parking lot somewhere, I really don't know how else you would learn this valuable information that is essential to riding a motorcycle. Bobby and Taylor are awesome (and patient) instructors that guide you through the entire process of learning how to ride a bike - from letting the clutch out, to swerve techniques, to emergency stop practice, to basically any questions you can think of. In total, the beginner course for me was a Thursday night of classroom training (3 hr), Saturday afternoon (noon-6), Sunday afternoon (noon-6) of mixed classroom and range training. You have a riding evaluation and a written evaluation, and if you pass, you can skip the DMV skills test, get a discount on insurance, and other discounts. WELL WORTH THE MONEY! The price of confidence on a motorcycle for a beginner is priceless, really. These 15 hours, or so, leave you with the knowledge you NEED. Most students are complete beginners, so do not feel like you are not ready to take this class, THEY WILL GET YOU READY AND CONFIDENT. Cheers gents, thanks for the wisdom! read more

Just finshed taking the beginners safty riding course. From the classroom time to field time i throughly enjoyed this course. I strongly recommend taking this course for anyone jew to riding. By the end of the course i was well educated on safty precautions, how to properly operate a motorcycle and also having alot of fun! Thank you OCMT! I have told all my friends that ride about your course! read more

Just passed and got my certificate past sunday 5/5/19. These guys were very professional. Theory with roger was good and very detailed. Bobby and tyler were amazing at the field. These guys dont mess around. My thoughts and perspective in the motorcycle world just broaden. I learned alot not just about motorcycle, driving in general. Gotta respect the machine to be a safe rider and to have fun. So i thank these guys. read more

This class was well worth it!!! My Dude Robert and the other guy were super chill and knowledgable about riding . Very informative and they don't just give you the answer flat out they make you think about it , I assume so you can remember the answer when it's given. Choose the dirt bike not the Harley clone. Be on time ! And regardless your knowledge about riding listen to them Bob though he's the man ! I'm gonna bring the wifey so she can take the course next year for sure Thanks guys for upping my head turning helped a lot this week in the canyon ride! Go here people I don't care how far you need to travel but OCMT is worth it!!! read more

This is a must take course for someone who is starting to ride. It was actually fun to start learning on bikes that are not even yours! Hehehe. The instructors are cool and very easy to talk to if you have questions. They REALLY pay attention to each rider and provide feedback on what the rider can do to improve. Just by watching how I maneuvered, Bobby was able to know what I was doing wrong and what to do to correct any mistakes. I believe the bikes are all 125cc which is good for starting off on. But when you get your own, you'll have to get used to the different gear ratios and amount of torque yours will put out. Overall, it was a great experience and am considering to take the other more advanced riding courses provided by Total Control. read more

Overall, MAJOR disappointment; although class time was informative & straight-forward. My biggest beef was with the range time. I certainly didn't expect brand new bikes, but I was beyond horrified at the state that the bikes they provided were in. I certainly would not let a loved one get on them. I totally understand they get dumped, dropped, and go through the paces as this is a training course; however, when you're asked to go 15mph and your speedo doesn't work, electrical wires are hanging...or you see that the bike in front of you has a bald rear tire, something's wrong. Worse yet, some of us could even tell that the clutches and throttles were pretty worn. These bikes were horribly unresponsive. My bike experience is mostly with quads and enduros. The overall feeling of those kind of bikes from the handlebars, shifter and rear brake placement feel very different than the POS dented up Rebel 250 I was saddled with. When I asked my instructor about possibly riding one of the Yamaha or Suzuki enduros they had, right away he said (queue sarcastic, I-don't-give-a-sh*t tone) they wouldn't fit me (I'm short) and the Rebel has exact same controls as any other bike. So I basically, "I don't care about you. Get used to maneuvering an awkward steering bike just because I said so." After reading other online reviews, I really wish I had Bobby or Ryan coaching me. Needless to say, I didn't pass my range test, however I did pass the written test (Seriously. What does that tell you.). I felt by Sunday, my riding technique improved, and I felt I at least did well enough to pass...not so much. This instructor was just there to read the training book and yell at what we were doing wrong (anything positive was miniscule). He never engaged with any of us on a personal level at all. When someone asked about the course for the next range test, his reply, "Well, you're not the leader. You just need to follow." That's nice to hear right before you're being tested. Anytime I've ever done any course or range time, I've always physically walked through the course. Pointing and yelling obviously doesn't accomplish anything. After dealing with all of this in 95deg blistering heat, and being tore up from the day before, I was glad this was over. Horrible weekend. So now I get to decide if I want to pay the $50 to go through the range course again, or just gamble and retest. KEY POINT: I did find out after calling the office that I can request a different instructor (YAY) and most importantly, I can bring my own bike (as long it's under 500cc), which sounds like a MUCH better option at this point. read more

If you are an experienced rider, this class may be helpful but speaking as a new rider, I highly recommend you go somewhere else. However, I will say that taking the classroom portion with Billy was informative and helpful but my instructor was Taylor and he was simply just rude and a dick (lack of better words). He clearly didn't want to be there based simply off of his body language and he assumed every rider knew exactly what to do after reading off of his pamphlet verbatim. He would bark out orders and just yell what you're doing wrong instead of showing you and giving actual constructive feedback that you can fix or improve. He would always ask the group if we had questions but when students actually asked questions, he would belittle them or seem so annoyed that you would never want to ask a question again. You probably have a better chance just learning yourself. read more
