"My experience at learn to ride VC was a life changing one. The instructors were humorous but ultimately dedicated to teaching life saving skills. I took the two day weekend course. I arrived at 7 am and was greeted with warm smiles and coffee. The instructors took care of house cleaning business and then proceeded to start making jokes and teaching us invaluable knowledge about riding. The presentations were clear, succinct, and provided a strong foundation for learning how to ride motorcycles..."

"Mark made the experience well worth it. The class was very remedial but for licensing purposes it was useful. He was patient with the other students that had no experience. I appreciate his time and knowledge. The other instructors were great as well."
