I took the 2 day Basic Rider class. I would first like to say "READ THEIR WEBSITE". It provides a ton of detailed information about what you will need to bring to the class in order to be prepared as well as some additional reading material if you would like a leg up. I went in knowing zero about riding a motorcycle. The class was well structured and very informative with a major push on safety. Do not worry, you get plenty of riding time between the two days. The instructers were great and worked with you. Do not be afraid to ask questions, however do not expect them to hold your hands either. You have to incorporate what they are telling you into what you are doing. I was one of two people in my class who had no prior experience (not the norm) however everyone was treated as if they were starting from the beginning. If you are new to the hobby/sport/experience of a lifetime, then definately take this course.

Thanks for putting on a great class the past two days. Despite having ridden for a number of years and many miles, I feel that I got a huge amount out of the course. In fact, I think that having some experience allowed me to get more out of the class than I would have just starting out. Rich was a superb instructor. He clearly has a wealth of experience and I cant think of a better person to be teaching people how to ride safer. He also tended to make things fun, even the classroom session, and explained things very well. Bob was also great, and also explained concepts/techniques very clearly. The fact that the owner of the school is out on the hot tarmac with all the students is a testament to the kind of business he runs!

A group of us completed the Experienced Rider Course with two Streetwise Cycle School instructors this past weekend: 1-day workshop. We elected to spend 100% of our time "on the range" and didnt participate in the classroom session (so we didnt sit for the exam.) Our instructions were exceptionally knowledgeable and experienced. They were also exceptionally patient, safety conscious and persistently sharing group and 1:1 feedback throughout the day. We took several breaks as we worked through skills exercises. The entire day was a phenomenal learning experience and bargain, too. I highly recommend this school for any form of motorcycle training. Theyre definitely "rider first".

I highly recommend Streetwise Cycle School to any motorcycle enthusiast... Whether youre a beginner who hasnt even used a clutch or a seasoned rider who is looking to sharpen their skills, Streetwise is the place for you! Rich and Dale were great! Ive been riding for almost 15 years, since I was 13 years old but still took the beginners class since I wasnt sure my motorcycle would have been registered in time for the Experienced Rider Course. Even in the beginners class, I still learned a ton despite my years of riding experience. If youre thinking of taking a riding class, quit reading the reviews and sign up with Streetwise today. I can promise that you wont be disappointed!

This place is great! I had an AMAZING and fun weekend at their Boston (Hyde Park) location. Ive never used a motorcycle prior to this class and I was a little fearful on how poorly I would perform. Bob and Steve were great instructors - they were patient, motivating, encouraging and made it easy to learn! I couldnt believe how much my skill progressed in only 2 days. I honestly wished the course was longer than 2 days because I had that much fun. I cant wait to purchase a motorcycle and start riding again. I definitely consider taking their Refresher course if takes a while for me to get a motorcycle.

I took the basic rider course and loved it. Gary and Mike were excellent coaches and are very experienced riders. They are passionate about biking and helping more people become (safe) motorcyclists. Even with a lot of dirt biking experience, I learned a lot and received very helpful feedback on the range. This is an excellent course to take as you get to use their bikes, learn from highly experienced riders, and get your license without having to go to the RMV. Everyone in my class gained a lot of confidence and knowledge- this is a very worthwhile and valuable class. Thank you Gary and Mike!

Took the Basic Rider Course this past weekend. Never having ridden a Motorcycle, I was nervous and anxious, but that went away after the second day. Gary and Russ were awesome instructors. The directions given were clear and safety was always first on all exercises. When I did not accomplish the exercise as it should had been, they took the time to try and explain further on what I did wrong and what to do to remedy the situation. A great time was had and will definitely recommend to friends and family.

The best place to get your motorcycle licensing and instruction in Boston. Dale was a great instructor, she noticed quickly that she had a more experienced group and didnt linger around on basic exercises, letting us get through the course a little faster which was well appreciated during the terrible weather we had during the weekend. A great experience all around, I feel very confident in my riding after not having had done too much before the class. They also make the RMV stuff a breeze.

Great facility! Great Instructors! Nice class room and an on-site, secluded riding range. Instructors were great - clear instructions, good advice, good discussion between exercises. All pre/post class (administrative) communication was clear and when I did have questions, I got fast professional answers. I took an ERC. Bob was the lead instructor. One great thing about the ERC is that everybody is on their own bike. Watching Bob do the box on his V-strom - amazing.

I took the Experienced Ride Course at Raynham. Bob and Dale were my instructors and I had a great time. Both Bob and Dale took personal interest in making sure the whole class fulfilled the course objectives. They went to great lengths to get the message across and often chipped in with their own personal experiences. Overall, a great class and glad that I enrolled for the course.

Great place! I took a 2-hour introduction to motorcycles there. That made me feel like riding more so I took the basic rider course. At the end of the course I got my license! The instructors are great. They are very encouraging and have good humour. For the basic rider course (to get your license) you do not need a motorcycle or helmet - they provide it for you.

Fantastic experience. I went from not knowing anything about motorcycling to cornering at 3rd gear, making emergency stops, and U-turning in tight spaces without putting my foot down. The classroom portion can be a little tedious, but we got a lot of riding time. Helmets and nice bikes were provided.

I wanted to let you know how pleased I was with the instructors I had, I believe their names were Mike and Rich. They really knew their stuff about riding and also the course. They truly made the course educational, informative and enjoyable. It was great to be in such good, knowledgeable hands.

Instructors Alan and Rebecca are excellent, both knowledgable and friendly. I took the basic riding course this weekend, which allows me to get my motorcycle license without having to take the road test. 10% discount (mandated by law) on insurance is a nice benefit. Highly recommend these guys.
