"My daughter took the course and love it! Although she didn’t pass she learned so much and can’t wait to go back. Braydon & Dutchie brought their A-Game! My daughter will absolutely be going back, as will the rest of the family as they grow and learn. Thank you Learn To Ride!"

"I could not be happier that I decided to go to Learn to Ride Vc for this experience. My instructor’s Mark and Jose were amazing— super patient, knowledgeable, and always had a positive attitude. I learned so much and can’t wait to apply it all in real life! 10/10 recommend 😊"

"I had an awesome experience here at Learn to Ride VC. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They genuinely cared about our success and it showed! I found out that Learn to Ride VC offers CHP CMSP MTC (Motorcyclist Training Course) classes which can get you a skills test waiver (DL389) and they also offer the CHP CMSP Total Control IRC (Intermediate Riding Clinic) and Total Control ARC (Advanced Riding Clinics) The classroom is located in a small industrial park off of Surfside Drive's North/South segment..."

"I have had experience with multiple instructors and the owner of Learn to Ride VC and all of my experiences with them were extremely pleasant. The instructors are very professional while still being assertive and teaching important, life saving skills. I highly suggest them to anybody looking to learn to ride from the very beginning, improve their skills or just trying to get their license. All who work with Learn to Ride VC will leave being a more knowledgeable and safe rider!"

"Suuuuuper informative and well laid out course, covering all the basics on what it takes to be a safe rider. Highly recommend before buying your first bike as this will be the perfect introduction and instill good habits before you have time to develop bad habits on your own. The class size isn't bad, capped at 12 riders which leaves plenty of room and time for personal instruction as well as riding exercises. My only complaint is the early hour that the class starts at, but that's necessary in order to get a full day of education in."
- Noah Bell, August 2025
"Good trainers, very good planned out routes. Always understand if asking questions, demonstrate tasks to make sure you understand them. I would highly recommend 👍🏽"
