I took a class from Jen and Rico this weekend in Eureka. It was AWESOME! Honestly, this is the only way to learn. They were both so cool and patient. They took the whole process very slowly, so I felt comfortable at each turn. The repetitive nature of the lessons really drilled in the techniques. Very safety oriented. I feel so much more confident with their careful tutelage. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for both newbs (like me) or someone hoping to polish their existing skills or break some bad habits. I will definitely be taking their intermediate course, after I seek out and buy the rad bike I was learning on! A+++++ Thanks, Jen and Rico, for being so cool to such a Nervous Nelly! I promise to diligently practice everything you taught me. read more

Redwood Region Motorcycle Training - Me on the spunkiest lil Yamaha XT250 ever. LOVE! - Driving Schools Near Me

I took a motorcycle driving class this past weekend in Novato. The people running the Novato -- Redwood Regional Motorcycle Training class are fantastic! Especially Dan! The class room portion was kept short and often funny. The actual driving classes surprised me with newer bikes and even a scooter! They offered snacks and were very relaxed. I was impressed by how much they reeinvested into the classes rather than pocketing any remainders. About two years ago I took the same class with totally different people in Alameda. THOSE classes were clearly orientated to making them money -- Old bikes with iffy shifting, emphasis on tardiness to make you reapply at $40 for the portion you were late to, no snacks. Also the people at the Alameda school constantly yelled. They justified it by saying they were speaking load enough to be heard over the bikes running.... The Novato classes proved that yelling was not necessary. They kept a calm tone and never had any communication issues. In short: If you want a motorcycle and need to take the class, go to Redwood Regional Motorcycle Training and take the class in Novato. And if you're lucky to catch Dan before he moves to Hawaii, you'll be in for a treat. Thank you Guys! read more

Don't look any further!!! RRMT is the best in the region! My cousin and I both did this course last weekend 7/14/2022-7/17/2022. He was a beginner and I had ridden since I was a kid. From the beginning of signing up and talking on the phone with Jen(the owner) to The two instructors (Steven and Charles) there are no better people out there you can take this course with. Everyone was so nice, knowledgeable,professional and patient. In our class there was a wide range of experience from beginners to advance riders, Both Steven and Charles were accommodating to everyone's needs and skill level. Steven and Charles both have a gift for teaching even those of us who are no strangers to ridding on 2 wheels felt like we got to unlearn the bad habits and start over with the correct foundation of skill set. This team truly cares about its students and wants you to have fun and become a strong confident ridder. I could go on and on about all the great things about this company. But I will say sum it up and say "All around the best school you can take"' read more

I took the mid-week course in Cloverdale, and I can't recommend this class enough. I'd never ridden a motorcycle in my life before this course, and by the end of the second day I was feeling surprisingly comfortable. It's oriented towards getting on the bike rather than learning in a classroom, which I appreciated. The instructors are incredibly friendly, fun and patient as well. A bit obvious, but because the vast majority of motorcycles have manual transmissions, I might recommend brushing up on how to operate a clutch beforehand. Not necessary, but probably helpful. Maybe try fastening a double d-ring helmet too if you'd rather not ask how. The exercises taught in the course progress at a nice, slow pace. They're never complicated, but at times the instructions were explained just a little quickly -- so don't be afraid to get clarification. You practice turning the bike on and off, accelerating and braking, shifting, proper turning technique at slow and faster speeds, swerving, emergency braking, and more. Check the weather beforehand. You have to wear long sleeves, but if it's going to be hot I'd recommend an ultra light button-up. Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and most importantly water if you don't want to drink out of a spigot. Again, I highly recommend this course and the instructors, it's 100% worth the money and provides a low-pressure setting to really learn the fundamentals. read more

Just completed this weekend course. Highly recommend signing up for this class. I'm a newbie and had never operated a motorcycle before. This class is very well designed, thought out and taught. Instructors were very knowledgeable thorough in their teaching. read more

Although I have been riding motorcycles for over 30 years and I've owned every Goldwing Honda has ever made, Jennifer and Bob were able to pass on to me skills that I will utilize on a future rides. read more

I took this class June 5/6, 2016 and SO GLAD I DID!! I'm a newbie rider, I've only been riding my Honda Grom two months on my permit. I went on the advice of several friends to take this course and learned so much. I am so confident on turning, swerving, and more, thanks to the wonderful instructors. Myself and my friend were the only two females taking the class (The instructors were awesome ladies who had many years of experience.) but we felt right at home with everyone. The bikes are super easy to ride on, I'm a shortie at only 5 feet but was able to plant both feet on the ground thanks to them using the Kawasaki Eliminator's. The instructors gave us so much valuable info, they were super patient, and I kinda want to go riding with all of them! (Hey, got my M1, could happen!) 5 stars, wonderful experience, I want to take the intermediate class next! read more

I took the class in Cloverdale with Jennifer and it was great. I was surprised that the class time was minimal and we got a lot of time on the bikes. The class prepared me really well for the DMV written test - I didn't even study the DMV manual and just took the test based on what I learned in class and passed just fine. In addition to learning the 'by-the-book' stuff, Jennifer also shared lots of real-world experience and tips, on everything form selecting gear, finding parts at a discount, and what to watch for on the road. I was hesitant to spend the money on this class, but now that I've completed it, I would NEVER try to get my M1 license without it. We learned a ton of stuff in 2 days, way more than I would have thought was involved in riding a motorcycle. read more

I just finished the motorcycle training and it was great! I had never ridden prior to the course and the instructors had all of us riding comfortably and skillfully within the two days of the course. Jennifer, our primary instructor, was enthusiastic and positive throughout. I highly recommend this course as either an introduction or a skill builder! read more

I was really impressed with how much I learned through this course. All of the instructors were very knowledgeable, courteous and attentive to everyone's personal needs. This class is a great way to waive the skills, learn skills that could save your life and have fun. I highly recommend this training program for all beginners and even experienced riders. read more
