11 months ago Fantastic experience: I Just finished my MSF course with Teri and Al and it was amazing. They really work closely with you and take the time to explain what is needed for the course and more importantly what you need to work on. I would highly and I mean highly recommend this course and the Silver State motorcycle academy to anyone looking to get there Nevada motorcycle endorsement or just learn more about the safety and requirements of riding in our awesome state. They are truly the best instructors in the Greater Reno area Thank you Al and Teri You guys are the best
11 months ago Fantastic experience: Teri & Al are amazing! They are super thorough when explaining things & are so helpful. It was a chill environment which made me comfortable with learning to ride my motorcycle. This class boosted my confidence a lot & I definitely recommend taking it, I might even take it again as a refresher later on! Thank you Teri & Al :)
11 months ago Fantastic experience: Today I finished this class, absolutely incredible. I have nothing but the highest praise for Teri and Al's professionalism, knowledge, expertise, and comedic premise. These guys are a solid 10/10 and have an astounding gift for teaching. I came into this course expecting to be given a brief example of our path of travel followed by an example and then a "give it your best, don't fall over" because it's, well.....Silversprings. However what we ended up with is best described as a class that is expertly tailored to each student as an individual despite there being eight students, and two instructors. They were able to identify even the slightest thing you were doing incorrectly, or an area where you need direct improvement, and massage it into better habits. Coming out of this class as one who is now far more prepared for on-road motorcycling, I genuinely feel blessed to have been taught by two dedicated and marvelous instructors. Thank you. I have every intention of retaking their class in a few years assuming they're still instructing.
