Coach 2 Ride

Andrea and Bonnie are the best! My husband has been to other training schools and this was by far his best training and riding experience as he got the best of both. I’d never driven a motorcycle and was shocked that not only did I learn to ride/​drive with all of the technical facets but I also got to get out there and practice what I learned. Fantastic experience! Would definitely recommend!!!

My brother and I took Bonnie’s advanced class and I am amazed at how much I took away from it. We have both been riding for about 12 years but Bonnie had so much to offer. I had a great time. Bonnie started by going over basic skills which really helped solidify my technique and has already significantly improved my abilities. I also got a chance to ride challenging terrain in a new area. My brother and I both had an awesome time and we are strongly considering going back to Anza for more trail riding.

BEATS OUT LARGE COMMERCIAL MOTORCYCLE SCHOOLS any day of the week!!!
Personalized instruction from a PRO-​VETERAN RIDER is priceless!
My wife is dying to have her own Harley, unfortunately she never really got around to lessons UNTIL I gifted her with a «private full day 1 on 1 lesson with Bonnie.»
After the one on one lesson her confidence has been significantly elevated «I think we may have created a monster.» She’s hooked!
We both look forward to the day where she can enjoy being in control of her own bike as opposed to being a passenger.
Thanks to Bonnie’s teaching abilities and relaxed demeanor my wife decided to take their intermediate class next, happy wife happy life!
Bonnie breaks everything down step by step & follows up with a physical demonstration which allows her rider to observe and retain in an intimating manner. Moreover, Bonnie has a true core passion for riding it’s evident when she hits the trails with her riders, her excitement about riding is pretty contagious. My wife was definitely revitalized!
*Point of Attention:
Worth every penny for the mere fact that these ladies breath safety.
Highly recommend!

Had a nice day in Anza with Coach 2 Ride. My wife just turned forty-​something yrs old, and one of the things she wanted to try was dirt biking. We brought along our niece, who just like my wife had zero riding experience (other than pillion riding).
Andrea had them in her Basics group, and they were quickly up and riding on their own — I think within the first hour. They learned body positioning, turning, standing on pegs, and riding over logs. The last portion of the class included time on their range course, which was small but had various types of terrain to practice their skills. My wife and niece had a good time and now want to get their own bikes.
Not wanting to just watch them ride, I joined Bonnie’s novice group that met in the same area. This group was for people who had riding experience, but not necessarily in the dirt. It was a lot of fun, especially the off-​course trail rides that we did in the local area. I had previously taken the dual-​sport course at Motoventures a few years ago, and had been on a few trail rides on my own. But, riding with Bonnie and her group was more fun that all of that. My opinion: if you’re looking for a dirt riding school, I would recommend C2R over MV.

Wow — what an awesome day on the bikes! My friends and I are street riders and wanted to give trail riding a try. We had an absolute blast! We spent the first part working on necessary skills and then hit the trails. I couldn’t imagine a more perfect learning experience!
If you want to learn to ride a dirt bike, this is the place to go. The other group had no riding experience and some also didn’t know how to drive a stick shift. But, I saw them riding and full of smiles by the end of the day.
Bonnie and Andrea were extremely knowledgeable, patient and encouraging. I highly recommend Coach2Ride for learning to ride or improving your skills.
Thanks ladies!

Trying a dirt bike was on my bucket list and I’m really glad I did it as Bonnie and Andrea are highly professional and excellent teachers! They really make it fun by teaching the maneuvers and then taking you on a fun ride!

What an amazing day we had at Coach 2 Ride! I’m fully addicted and want to go back. This business is a lil’ bit of a trek to get to but so worth it! A group of 6 friends showed up as newbies and left well trained and confident to ride again. Bonnie has incredible patience and such a positive attitude. It’s a great learning environment and the training moves at a healthy pace. We had a blast! I couldn’t stop smiling, felt like a kid again. Thank you Bonnie for such a great and safe experience, can’t wait to ride again!

I took my nephew for his first riding lesson and it was awesome! I took a lesson myself and had a great time as well. If you are looking to learn to ride this is the place to go! Weather you are a first time rider or a just looking to improve your technical skill, you will learn a lot with Coach2Ride. Bonnie and Andrea are highly professional and excellent teachers for both kids and adults. Although we are at different levels of riding experience, my nephew and I both got very individualized instruction. My nephew now has a great foundation of riding skill and can’t wait to ride again! I would definitely take another lesson to further my skills as well! Thank you so much for a great learning experience and a really fun day! We will definitely come back!

This driving school is AMAZING. My husband and son went today. The people running this place are top notch. Not only did our son learn how to ride; but they had someone look over our son’s bike and basically give it a tune up for free. Plus, they gave my son some riding pants and many other things. How do they make any money? Our son is so excited and very confident to start riding his new dirt bike. GREAT place. Thank you so much for everything. We will recommend you all to everyone.

Coach2Ride is much more than a dirt bike course – it’s more of a day-​long dirt bike adventure. The course is very personalized and caters to each student’s strengths. The first 90 minutes were targeted handling lessons (positioning, leaning, handling, cornering, etc), and the rest of the class was guided trail and track riding. Bonnie made the course exciting, fun and insightful with helpful feedback. She takes you from the basics into riding quickly so you get into the excitement of dirtbike riding right away. She has a very fun and laid back attitude which makes learning easy.
The next day we went together on a guided ride up Red Mountain in Anza. I was really impressed at how the skills I learned the previous day helped take me into unspoiled territory. The trails and views were amazing. We had a lot of fun together and I left feeling like I opened up a whole new world of adventure riding in those two days.
On top of all that I was impressed that the course is taught by two awesome ladies with something like 40 years of motorcross racing experience between them.
Even if you live far away, it’s worth it to train with Coach2Ride. I can’t imagine a better way to learn dirt bike trail and track riding.

I just finished my dirt bike school March 29. My husband has grown up riding and while I had interest in learning, it was more for street riding ie; Sunday rides up in the mountains!!! My husband found this website online and after much hesitation (nerves and intimidation) I can only say how empowering to learn how to ride something I thought would be really cool but perhaps difficult to get into given my late start (I’m 39 but the body screams older, ricketty knees, back issues, etc…) I worked with Bonnie and I was lucky enough to get her instruction one-​on-​one!!!
I have NEVER ridden any type of motorcycle, dirt bike, scooter, you name it with a motor! I do know how to ride a bicycle and my car is a stick shift which helped me grasp the concept of using a clutch. I felt completely at ease with Bonnie. She is very patient and what I appreciated most was her ability to explain things in a very clear, concise way. I learn by observing and her style of teaching was perfect for me that way. I tend to over-​analyze a bit, but her explanation and guidance left no room to present any type of «what if»…I felt her detailed instruction covered any potential for that!
I was glad that I didn’t have any experience because I truly felt the fundamental basics of dirt bike riding taught by this level of expertise was a great foundation for me to kick-​start my interest in riding. We were at Barona and it was a beautiful day! I would really love to take more riding classes from Bonnie! It was an awesome day and well worth the inexpensive cost to learn from a true professional!!! The trail ride around the area was really cool!!! I never in a million years thought I would be able to ride, but with her help, I now can:)
Pursuing an interest and achieving what you set out to do is one of the most rewarding, empowering, confidence-​boosting things to be able to do for yourself. The only hurdles in life are the ones’ we allow to exist… one less hurdle to take on thanks to Bonnie!!!

I just attended Coach2ride dirt bike school on Sunday March 20^th. I have been wanting to learn how to ride and found their website while scouring the internet one night. I was excited to be taught by women and learn the actual fundamentals of riding that will keep me safe and give me a solid foundation to build my skills upon. Andrea and Bonnie are very relaxed and make it easy to learn even if you are completely unfamiliar with a dirt bike (or any bike at all!). I have never touched a bike before this day, and the instruction was absolutely what I needed to give me the confidence to continue my learning. I had friends offer to teach me, but I felt it was easier to learn in when there is no pressure to perform and by someone you don’t know. It is perfectly okay to ask any question or concern you might have without feeling stupid. I would love to take another novice class to get a little better before going out by myself.
I am 28, so don’t think this is just for kids!

I have never ridden dirt bikes but have ridden street bikes on/​off for years then at the beg. of the year I bought a new dual sport bike. I wanted to know how to ride it in the dirt. They started by going over important bike basics and safety. Once we started riding, they split the group of 4 in to 2 and worked with each rider’s skill set. They customize the class to the needs of the riders. It was so much fun. What a great way to spend the day. I was hooked after riding the single mini tracks. The two certified instructors, Andrea & Bonnie are professionals and passionate. They bring the bikes, the gear, the knowledge and gave me the confidence to ride. Two months after the course, I bought a dirt bike. I can’t say enough great things about this school. I want to go back and ride with them again. They bring snacks and drinks. I lost one of my socks and it mysteriously showed up at the track a few days later and they mailed it to me saying that one sock is useless w/​o its pair.

Myself along with a group of friends wanted to learn how to ride dirt bikes and went searching for a group class. Found «Coach 2 Ride» online and tried them out. We are glad we did because the class and teachers were great!
The class is taught by two certified instructors: Bonnie and Andrea, who really know their stuff. No one had experience riding a dirt bike or motorcycle and by the end of the class we felt like pros! They really do a good job teaching you all the basics of riding first like how to duck walk the bike and slowly progress, ending with a fun trail ride. We learned how to shift, stand up while riding, and all.
The class is cheaper with a group rate, I believe we had 6 people in our group. Includes all the gear you need to ride (clothes, helmets, shoes, etc). Even includes some snacks and drinks too! This took place at the barona speedway in it’s own little spot. My only gripe is that they took pictures for us and we have yet to receive them (months ago).
If I can get the group back together, I definitely want to take their next level up class and do some real trail riding.
btw…11/2010 and I never did get my cd of pics =(
