Great instruction team. I have ridden before, but not much on the street.
We started from the basics, and advanced to additional skills.
The class had all levels of riders, and the instruction team was able to
challenge everyone, without overwhelming anyone.

Just wanted to say that as a brand new learner to the world of
motorcycles, I had such a wonderful experience on the course and in the
classroom. I'm bad with names but Brian, Dennis and the other coach were
all really great. Raul's pace in the classroom was appropriate and well
timed. I enjoyed myself and look forward to the opportunity to take more
classes to build on my skill.

I had Matt and Chris for my instrustors in the ssf class and they made
it a great experiance. They were detailed in showing us the right way to
ride and it shows how they really care about making sure we were doing it
the right way. I would recommend them to anyone who was looking for a
begginer riding class.

I just completed the basic rider course and feel that every new
rider should do it. The instructors Chris, Brian and Matt were patient and
supportive. They give constant feedback and guidance and I learnt a lot. The
skills that I learnt on the course will definitely make me a safer rider.
Overall a great training program with great instructors.

I felt this course was great!
The classroom courses could be more interactive, but still did exactly what
they need to....teach the rules to riding safely.
The riding days were perfect. The guys were awesome. They were patient and
informative, which i think the goal should be for a beginner course teacher.
At no point did I see anyone lose their cool, pressure anyone, or get
frustrated (if they did I couldnt tell. haha).
They were 100% professional, encouraging, and explained everything
thoroughly. Started off slow enough for new riders, but did not hold people
back either who maybe had more experience. Made sure everyone was ready
before moving forward, and got us up to speed on how to ride a bike.
This class is super useful. If you think you can't ride a bike but want to,
you're wrong. This is a great place to start. I'd recommend it and have.

I took the basic Rider course in October 27, 29 & 30 2011.
Classroom instructor Brian Pound was precise, organized and to the point.
The class was informative, the format of learning was good to learn fast and
retain what was taught. The course was doing exercises, watching informative
videos and of course a test. Thank goodness the videos were short. It goes
by very quickly. Short sweet and to the point !!!
Our instructors, Brian and Matt for Saturday were awesome. Very calm and
knowledgeable. They were encouraging those who like me were not so confident
to ride. They point out flaws in your riding, like not using both brakes or
keeping your elbows too stiff. There is a variety of motorcycles, ranging
from Honda Rebel/nighthawk to a taller dirt-bike. There was even one SCOOTER
FOR ME :). Matt was so much fun; he made me become comfortable riding my
scooter around all the big bikes.
Sunday, the big day was with Chris and Dennis; what I call the moment of
truth. Definitely, the most strenuous and challenging. But by the end of
the day, all the hard work of all the instructors are complete as I passed
evaluation. What a relief and had the rest of the day to enjoy.
Today, I am riding around with confidence and safety.
Thank you all and you all deserve a big raise !!!!

I took the course in October as a birthday gift from my boyfriend,
and we both had a wonderful time - the rider coaches were fantastic. Very
experienced, willing to joke around with us and make the experience fun. I'd
never driven a motorbike before but I am now planning to buy one. I feel
that the course gave me enough information, practice, and confidence to do
that - but I'll be back to try the Street Rider course as well, to make sure
I keep improving. Thanks again!

I took the basic Rider course in August 2011 in order to
learn to ride and forgo the DMV test. I took the course with
my girlfriend and we had a great time. She was somewhat hesitant,
but at the end of the course, she was having a lot of fun.
The course is very thorough. You start out with a class room course, doing
exercises and watching videos. It goes by very quickly. There is a variety
of motorcycles, ranging from Honda Rebel/nighthawk to a taller dirt-bike.
There was even one scooter. All were easy to control beginner bikes.
They start you off with learning the controls of the bike, practicing with
the clutch and then eventually you start riding and learning various skills.
At the end of the 2nd day, you perform a 4 part evaluation.
Our instructors, Brian and Chris were awesome. Very calm and
knowledgeable. They were encouraging those who dropped their bikes
to get up and keep going. They also constantly point out flaws in
your riding, like not using both brakes or keeping your elbows too stiff.
All in all, the course is a great way to learn to ride and feel comfortable
riding a motorcycle. The early morning option is great because it frees up
the rest of your day on the weekend. However, make sure to get a proper
rest on Saturday night because the first Sunday exercise is quite
challenging.
Thanks Brian and Chris, K. and L.

Raul from the class session is so awesome, flexible, and makes the
class just great overall. He made the class exciting, unlike another class I
had before which was really boring and didn't get to learn as much as I did
with his.
Matt and Chris from the Riding sessions were also just awesome! They were so
informative and just had positive attitudes the whole time. They give great
feedback to help better your skills which I think is very important because
it's a different roadway outside the riding session classes. They made sure
we all got everything down and had the basics registered in our heads before
our evaluations which made me feel comfortable and confident having my
lessons given by them as coaches.
Thanks for all of your hard work, support and guidance guys!

I have never been on a motorcycle, so you can imagine how scary it
was for me on the first day at the range. The 2 coaches there (Marcus and
Rocky) were great. They all were knowledgeable and at the end I was able to
pass the evaluation. Even though I passed the evaluation at the end, I
would feel more at ease if we have 15 minutes to ourselves to practice on
the exercises that we were least good at before the evaluation.
I would highly recommend anyone that thinks about riding to take this course.
It is so well worth it.

Without this class I wouldn't have the basic skills necessary

I want to personally thank Raul for his energy, patience, time,
and knowledge of anything and everything related to motorcycles
and riding. Raul's passion for this hobby was evident from the
moment I walked into the classroom session to the end of the
riding session. I am already looking forward to the advanced
rider course, only if Raul is teaching it that is!
I would also like to thank B.P. and Matt who were both very

This is an awesome program and I thank you for offering it to

I had never ridden before and by the time we finished the class i felt very comfortable. I actually didn't need a motorcycle class per se as i just bought a Vespa but my skills are much more honed now...and I feel much more comfortable.

I wanted to write Bike Smart, in order to acknowledge my instructor, Chris. I just successfully completed the course, and I wanted to thank and compliment Chris. In regards to myself, I am disabled and have several handicaps.
During the 3 days of instruction, Chris was always taking the time to inquire if I needed breaks, if he could assist me in any of the motorcycle operations, and when things became seemingly overwhelming or I got discouraged, Chris was there to encorage me with a kind word or extra instruction. Additionally, Chris showed great patience, in providing instruction to all class participants.
Among the class, were some experienced riders, mixed in with those who had never ridden a motorcycle, and Chris was able to adjust his instruction and teaching to adapt to all participants levels, all the while keeping the class informative and fun.
I would reccommend this Bike Smart class to any prospective or current motorcycle rider, and I would highly recommend that they request Chris as their instructor.
Thanks Chris, I hope to enjoy many years of accident free, safe motorcycleriding.
Sincerely.

Great course - Classroom and Range "coaches" were great.
I am a much more confident rider having taken this course.

Very informative. More fun than the first time I took the class 15 years
ago. The instructors at the riding sessions are saints and seem to care
very much that all of the students understand and apply the concepts. I
will be back for the Experienced Rider Course!

I was late for my first class and my slot was handed out to a standby student. I had to wait for a month before I could take the class again as a standby student. The wait was worth it. The video instructions and the instructors were fantastic. I really learnt a lot from them. My advice to other students is to be ahead of time for each session.
I can't wait to take the advanced rider course.
