What a great way to get back into riding - I used to ride when I was younger and always wanted to get back into it but wanted a place to go re-learn all the right ways to ride. Proride offered a great course and all of the guys involved were super helpful and patient! I would recommend this program to any level of rider. Special thanks to Matt and Otto!read more

I took the ProRide training this spring. A rainy weekend to be sure but my jaw hurt from smiling so much. I commute to work on my bike and practise what they taught, highway, street and parking lot work. This morning a car ran a red light, not at the tail end of a red, like two cars had already gone through the intersection ran a red light. I was in the middle lane when the mustang beside me hammered on the brakes. I stopped extremely hard and fast. No skid, no nose dive and I'm pretty sure I even down shifted the 52 times they hammer into you. Take the course, these guys know what they are doing. They will give you the skills to survive on the road and enjoy riding. No joke, this is the real deal. Thanks guys!read more

These guys are great... really! When I was signing up, I was a bit hesitant since the price seemed a bit too high, but when you go to the first class, you know what you are paying for. Amazing staff who take the time and make sure you understand every detail. They make sure you are ready for riding when you leave the class. Highly recommended.

I had the privilege of taking the ProRide course this past weekend and am beyond thrilled at the expert level of instruction I received.
I progressed from 'complete newbie' to 'competent handler' in the span of two days!
The instruction is second to none -- these guys run a tight ship to say the least. The instructors really know their stuff; they run a very smooth and efficient program and were able to provide more than enough personal attention to EVERY participant to ensure that we all passed the skills test with ease.
It was an utter pleasure to be taught how to ride by these guys, and I am pretty sure that our interaction doesn't end with the end of the course. They seem to be a very sociable bunch who have built a solid riding community from their recruits.
I am very happy indeed that I jumped in with both feet and took the time to take this course -- 150% recommended!read more

I completed their Survival Training this weekend. There was a foot of snow in the parking lot and HAIL on test day.

Very impressed. Don’t go anywhere else.read more

These are an exemplary group of instructors, they create a comfortable and fun environment to give you all the skills you need to pass your MST and road test. They took me from never having ridden a motorcycle to passing my MST in three days of parking lot training, as well as providing all the necessary safety information in two classroom sessions. I would absolutely recommend their school to anyone who is just starting out or needs to refresh, it’s worth every penny.read more

For anyone considering riding a motorcycle, please take a course through Pro-Ride - it's time and money well spent, and your life depends on it.
Matt, Brian, Len and John are professional, make learning fun, and the skills they teach will keep you safe on the road.
I graduated in 2014, and recently started to get a little complacent...DON'T do that on a motorcyle!
Thank goodness for this past weekends refresher course, it was a good reminder of the things that can happen on the road. John gave me some great tips on body positioning to help manouver my big bike easier (thanks John) and I now feel stronger, more confident and much more safer.
It's also nice to know a lot of Pro-Ride Graduates stay in touch after the course, ride together, and feel safe knowing they were trained by the same people.read more

The whole ProRide team provide excellent training! They all are knowledgeable, articulate, relaxed and fun. I am an "older" newcomer to motorcycling and came into the course with come trepidation as I think motorcycling is dangerous and we tend to become more cautious in our "riper" years - however John, Matt, Brian, Patrick and Otto all were encouraging and built my confidence over six days of intensive competence and performance training. It was accomplished with professionalism, style, levity and personal attention. I have no hesitation in recommending their Survival Training to anyone considering tasting the joy of motorcycling!read more

Before I started the Proride course I was a bit hesitated about money to spend for that. However, after completion the course I would say that it worth every single penny. The guys are not just good, the most important that they do care about you and are interested in your success. Also they taught a lot of things that maybe eventually would let you survive in tough road situations. One month later after their course I passed ICBC road test with the first attempt, and the examiner's feedback was - You did a great job, man! So, I do advise to invest you time and money - in really worth it. Btw, not to forget - it also was a real fun ))read more

This is probably one of the best courses I've ever taken in my life. I knew nothing when it comes to riding motorcycles safely, changing gears, turning, how to maneuver a motorcycle and speeding within the appropriate limits in highway. By the end of the course, I was able to do all of the above and feel comfortable doing it while having fun.
There's something to be said about the way all the instructors do their job. Not only they have fun doing it but the make sure that everybody gets the attention and advice that everybody needs as individuals which is usually rare in group courses.
Special thanks to John who was always there paying attention to everyone and always concluding with uplifting comments and positive/constructive feedback. He's the one who took the group I was in on the road and he was able to gage our strengths and weaknesses.
At the end of the day, these are all a bunch of cool people that are helping others in learning how to ride safely. Job incredibly done!

I feel SAFE with the skills they have passed on to me. Best of all they made it a blast.

Before going into this course I was very nervous. During the classroom sessions, the instructors took a very serious approach to teaching the knowledge needed to ride safe, but making the environment very relaxed and throwing a little humor to lighten the mood. All the instructors were very knowledgeable, and did everything they could to support a survival attitude on the bike, in the parking lot and the road rides. They went above and beyond to demonstrate safe rising practices, and made sure that all the students could complete the basic maneuvers before moving on. I would highly recommend Proride to anyone wanting to get on a bike. Thank you for the great experiences, and hope to see you all on the Saturday road rides provided after graduation. Thanks Matt, John, and Brian for helping me start enjoying something I have wanted to do for years!read more

Great course, and great instructors. Highly recommended for anyone thinking about getting a bike license. I've had a lot of experience as a youngster riding dirtbikes, so being on a bike feels natural, however, the course really helps you start the habits to get the rules of the road drilled in, so that you can enjoy riding the streets. The course really brings your confidence up, even if you think you're pretty good already.read more

After experiencing a scary incident as a passenger in my early 20s, I never thought I would be a passenger ever again, let alone ride a motorcycle myself. A few years ago, I decided to try being a passenger again, and started riding with my husband. His patience, knowledge, safe driving habits and encouragement helped me to learn to enjoy being on a bike. Thanks sweetie!
A couple of years later, I decided to get my motorcycle licence. I researched motorcycle riding schools online and came across ProRide. I am so glad that I choose them for my motorcycle training - you couldn't ask for a better group of guys! John, Brian, Matt - thanks for your patience, knowledge, support & encouragement. Otto, Jason & Marcel were helpful too.
I enjoyed all aspects of the course and had a lot of fun learning how to ride safely with a great group of people. The training is intense and tiring, but so worth it! And the joy you feel when you ride a bike for the first time is something that I won't ever forget.
I am now the proud owner of my very first bike, a 2008 Suzuki Marauder 250 and was thrilled to ride with my husband tonight for the first time. All the skills I learned in class stuck with me, so I was prepared for the dumb @!# who rolled through the stop sign to my right and cut in front of me. I slowed down, scanned the intersection and was ready for that possibility, therefore no panic, no problem. And this is why anyone wanting to ride should contact ProRide. They teach you right - they teach you to survive. Thanks guys - you rock!read more

After spending a considerable amount of time researching motorcycle training schools I decided on ProRide. I had high expectations and all of them were exceeded and the course provides great value for the money, well worth it.
The instructors were extremely knowledgable and cared about your own experience as a student and a rider. I liked the progressive way the info/skills were delivered so I felt more and more confident on the bike as the days progressed.
I highly recommend them and will continue to go on group rides with these hooligans :)read more

A great course for brand new riders or as a refresher for anyone who hasn't riden in a few years. The Instructors are knowledgeable, easy going guys whose main goal is to prepare riders for every situation they may potentially face on the road. They are pushing safety but inject humour to keep things on the lighter side.
Highly recommended for anyone thinking about riding on two wheels!read more

Just finished my 6 day Survival ring class with Proride where they bring you from zero to hero. What an amazing group of individuals with a wealth of knowledge. I was recommended to take Proride from one of my buddies who has been riding for ten years. He said Proride was the best out of all the motorcycle schools and after completing the course I would have to agree. Survival is key to riding a bike and that is the objective of Proride's course - train habits to safe riding so we all can enjoy the road for years. If you are thinking of learning to ride I would highly recommend.read more

Proride is THE BEST! The training is intensive and very consistent. Everything I do while I ride today is in my muscle memory because of Proride. I feel so confident and yet know to always be on my game. Brian is such a great trainer and is so dedicated to his role in making you a confident and safe rider. This course is a must.
I'm in my 50's and decided it was now or never. I went from Learner's Permit, to passing my skills test on the forth day of training, and passed my road test all within 5 months. That included winter months. Started in October. Fully licensed by March.
Go Proride and thank you for all you did for me!!!! 100% recommended!read more

For maybe the 2nd or 3rd time I've actually taken a few minutes to write a review here and it's the 1st time I've ever posted on more than 1 site about the same thing. After a long time (25 yrs) away from riding I decided to take it up again this year. I did some looking around for a refresher course but decided that I might as well start from scratch and learn riding from the ground up. I'm very happy that I did that with ProRide. These guys know what they are doing, enjoy doing it, and make sure that you do as well by the time you complete the course. Highly recommended.read more

For as long as I can remember I've wanted my license but never quite had the courage to follow through. When I finally joined ProRide I cant express what a great learning experience I had. All of the instructors are very knowledgeable, friendly and use extremely practical skills to equip beginners. John Buddo was particularly helpful and really took the time to help me with some of the drills that were a little more challenging for me. Its crazy to think on Saturday I had never driven a motorcycle in my life and by Tuesday I was driving the Sea to Sky with full confidence. I am so happy I took this course and I strongly encourage anyone else who is on the fence to jump off and just do it!! Trust me you wont regret it! Thanks everyone at Pro Ride!!read more

I had never driven a motorcycle before taking the course. After two days of skills training in the parking lot and two evening group rides, I feel really comfortable on a motorcycle, and confident in my abilities. I've still got a ways to go, but the great staff at Proride have given me a solid foundation on which to build. Highly recommend these guys. They build your confidence with positive feedback, but they also harp on you to discourage bad habits. It's the kind of tough love that every new rider needs. Many thanks to Mathew, Matt, Otto, Brian, and especially John! You guys are awesome!read more

I would seriously recommend taking this course before you ride on the streets of Vancouver.
Even take this course as a quick refresher before you start the season.
You can even rent their bikes to practice for your road test!
Otto also gets a gold star for being an awesome instructor.

Hello out there this is Colin Yarrow downhill mountain bike athlete/current BC provincial champion.
Being a downhill racer at a world championship level I have no doubt that I can handle a bike however when jumping from mountain bike to motorcycle and putting yourself out there in the general public I had to rethink "how much do I really know".
I just completed the first half of the pro ride course today and the amount of knowledge that i've taken in so far has exceeded my expectations.
We haven't even hit the road yet (parking lot skills training only so far) and I feel a lot more confident in not just bike handling skills but making myself visible to others and aware of how many hazards there are or could be.
Not to mention "pro ride" has the most down to earth instructors I have ever met.
Can't wait for the road portion over the next couple of days rain or shine.
Signing off

Couldn't have asked for better teachers. Oh, and Brian, first song on the radio during my drive home was from Glass Tiger "Don't forget me (when I'm gone)". How appropriate.

Great instruction that builds confidence. Brian keeps the atmosphere light and fun, while still driving home the importance of safety and attention while riding. I highly recommend the course to anyone who has never touched a motorcycle before, or even to someone who has riding experience and is preparing for a skills test or road test. You might just learn a skill that could save your life. I felt safe and comfortable in the learning environment and just generally, this course has helped me become more aware as a driver of any vehicle on the road. Thanks for teaching me how to ride guys! Two thumbs up!! Thanks to Brian, Matt, and Otto!

I went in green having only ridden a bicycle....and that was many years ago. Right from the first classroom lesson, I knew this was going to be well worth my time and money. The instruction from Brian in the classroom was insightful, well presented and interesting.
The parking lot training with Brian and Matt was perfect....starting off with basics and moving towards riding a motorcycle. Safety was always first and foremost.
The road ride with Marcell and Matthew instilled a much needed sense of "I can do this on the road".
All in all I couldn't speak more highly of the staff and teaching techniques. Thanks ProRide!read more

Today I went for a ride on the freeway, just 4 days after hopping on a motorbike for the first time ever, at some point during the ride, I realized I had as much confidence as would have taken me a year of riding to build without Proride, and with far more good riding habits than I otherwise would have. Well worth the course fee. If you're looking to build some rock solid riding skills in a hilariously entertaining environment and feel confident you won't become a statistic, look no further.read more

Brian - Thanks for building my confidence over the first 3 days to get me started on the bike. I'm pretty sure I will master the "push to go straight button" due to your awesome super soaker.
Matt - I so appreciate the time you spent with me before the MSA - U turn, U turn, U turn...

Took the course in May 2015 ..Very helpful and knowledgeable trainers. It was an awesome experience full of fun. The techniques and tips can really help even experienced riders. If you are in Vancouver and looking to learn motorcycle riding....pro ride is the best there is....highly recommended!
Course start with classroom session for first 2 days both 4 hours. Thanks to Brian, this was so much fun! This is followed by 2 days in parking lot. Again some of the tips here will go long way to help you ride. All instructors Matt, Brian, Jen and Marcel will help you understand more on riding in these 2 days. Believe me you will have loads of fun.
And to conclude the course last 2 days you will go on group rides within city and highways. Again great experience. Overall a "must do course"!read more

If you're new to the riding scene and are looking for a great way to get introduced to both theory and practical riding skills, then the ProRide course is an absolute must. I've been riding dirtbikes since I was a little guy and I can definitely say that there is still a ton to learn when it comes to the transition to the streets. The guys and gals at ProRide offer a great learning environment, welcome any questions you may have, and take the time and consideration to tend to those who may need a little extra help, all while doing it with a smile on their face and a joke or two to back it up. All in all, a great learning experience, great connections made, and a new understanding on how I conduct myself on the road, both as a driver, and a rider. Thanks all.read more

Great folks working here! Brian kept the classroom portion entertaining as it was informative, Otto is a cool dude and Jen is an absolute gem! I had never sat on a running motorcycle before the course and six days later I was riding with confidence. I have no doubt with the skills that I've learned, I can keep myself safe among those lunatics out there. Wholeheartedly recommended.
Thanks again,

Glad that I took this training class from ProRide. I took a motorcycle class in Hong Kong before, but this is a whole new experience and lot of informations that I never learn before. The instructors (Brian, Matt and Jen) are giving you their best to help you out, so you are not only knowing how to ride, but you also know how to ride safely. 5 stars recommended :)))read more

Not sure how they could be better. They do exactly what you need them to. They train you for the road and ensure that safety is always top-of-mind. Great experience, and got me on a motorcycle feeling safe.read more

These guys are AWESOME! My instructors were Brian, Matt G, and Jen... they're like The Three Musketeers of comedy and safety! I felt totally prepared by the initial work in the classroom, and my introduction to riding a bike for my first time was smooth, and totally enjoyable. Thanks guys for making my experience great.

Wow - that's all I can say.
I have never sat on a motorcycle in my life and wanted to get into it since my wife rides. She was devastated to hear that in BC, it is not mandatory to take a course before your exam, and advised that I needed to take one. I remember seeing the ProRide group ride up and down my friend's street in their vests night after night, so I looked them up. All of the reviews were like mine, so I figured I would give it a shot. 100 people saying the same thing couldn't be wrong. I signed up for the course and showed up. From this point forward, I was blown away.
Not only was I so appreciative of everything I was taught, but it was so awesome to have so many instructors, all with their own personalities. Each of them was patient, positive and downright hilarious. When I started the parking lot day, I figured there was no way I'd ever grasp all this, and 4 days later I was on the highway!
I can't thank ProRide enough for teaching me the essentials, as well as the life saving skills that ALL motorcyclists should know. Another bonus was being able to try out a ton of different bike styles to see what I liked.
Thanks again, ProRide - see you out there!read more

Just finished the 6 day Survival Rider Program - was amazing from start to finish. Huge thank you to all the instructors - John, Matt, Otto, Brian and Marcel for giving me the confidence I needed to pass the skills test and get out on the road and the foundation of skills to start my new motorcycling life the right way. Highly recommended!read more

This is one of the best courses to learn how to ride a motorcycle for anyone that wants to learn how to ride a motorcycle.
I had no experience riding a motorcycle when I came into this class.
I had the pleasure of meeting John, Brian, Matt, Hilton and Marcel.
They were all a blast to learn from. They always made sure that you were confidence in everything you had to do.
If your wanting to learn or even brush up on your skills because you haven't been on a bike for a long time this is the place to be. This is a great place to also meet great people. Made some good friends and they always have old graduates come back to say hi. That must mean something.

I recently moved to BC from ON and needed to start the entire license process from scratch here. I have taken an equivalent course to Pro Rides Survival Rider course in Toronto and I cannot tell you how much better Pro Rides was. The teachers were awesome in every way. The course was very flexible around my tough schedule and I felt that it prepared me properly for the tests. It really was a very positive experience. You wont beat it.read more

The instructors were thorough and fun. Not a moment wasted. Their training is a necessity for safe riding. I've driven a car without accident for over 20 years, so I think I'm a good driver, but I learnt a ton from these guys about how to move on the street. Can't recommend them highly enough!read more

Proride staff teaches riders how to be safe. They do not teach how to “pass” the exam, however if one applies the principles taught in class the exam is no issue. The course starts at a fundamental level and progressively builds upon each lesson. The class bikes are great to learn with, school location is fantastic, road rides are awesome; simply put Pro Ride rocks! Five stars!read more

Great place to get trained. I went in to this course with no riding experience and now I feel like I'm ready to buy a bike and head out on my own. The instructors were all very knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend this place to get your motorcycle training.read more

I thought I knew how to ride a motorcycle before taking the survival rider course. Sure, I knew how to stop, go, and turn. But I learned so much in the classroom and the parking lot stage (lane position, emergency braking, maneuvers, parking, and the list goes on) that I definitely recommend this to any rider. Whether it be someone who is just learning to ride or has been riding for years. There is so much to take from it as well as great instructors for each portion. No, seriously. Great instructors!read more

I'm 60 and ready to get rolling again after a long time on just 4 wheels. This training provided everything I needed and WAY MORE. Everyone is highly competent, super friendly, and skilled at helping each person regardless of their learning style or limitations. They go the extra mile for people having difficulties, and also recognize your developed skills and help you build them even further. This is NOT A "CANNED" program although the content is basically the same each time, the difference is in how they work with each individual and their limitations or existing skills. They have been doing this for about 17 years and the value added from this experience is noticeable!

Perfect for people who want to learn to ride a motorcycle! Students get constant help and feedback while learning to ride, which makes the learning process much easier and more enjoyable. Proride teaches you how to ride, and how to take on a risky activity in the safest ways possible. Would highly recommend the course. read more

I have just finished the course at Pro-Ride, and have nothing but great things to say. Brian gave informative, interesting classroom instruction laced with lots of humor. There were many points and ideas I hadn't even considered.
The parking lot riding/testing with Brian and Matt was also extremely valuable, humorous and professional. Safety is the number one concern with these folks and it shows. I went from having never sat on a bike to riding confidently. I passed my Skills Test in the lot!
The road rides on Mon/Tue with Marcel and Matthew were also fantastic. There are so many safety pointers and critiques they give you on your riding.
I will be telling all my friends that are interested in getting a bike to enroll with Pro-Ride. If you want to survive out there...Pro-Ride will help.
Thanks guys....keep it up!
PS: I will be buying a bike next week!!! read more

After spending a considerable amount of time researching motorcycle training schools I decided on ProRide. I had high expectations and all of them were exceeded and the course provides great value for the money, well worth it.
The instructors were extremely knowledgable and cared about your own experience as a student and a rider. I liked the progressive way the info/skills were delivered so I felt more and more confident on the bike as the days progressed.
I highly recommend them and will continue to go on group rides with these hooligans :)read more

Very thorough and detailed instruction, they work very hard to make sure you know what to expect in both real life riding scenarios and the ICBC Road Test. Also, very good value when you consider the amount of time they dedicate to you and the variety of bikes that you can try out during the riding sessions. Highly recommend.read more

So fortunate to have trained with ProRide! Brian is a natural instructor, passionate about bikes and rider safety, he beautifully passed on his knowledge and kept me entertained at the same time, making the on slot of information manageable.
Jen is fantastic! Her laid back approach is calming and reassuring. She was my road instructor and her ability to clearly communicate while on the road put me at ease and her skills were impressive.
Thanks ProRide for a great experience, I'm practicing the techniques and skills daily.read more

Absolutely fantastic instructors and overall experience. Came highly recommended from multiple friends, and so glad I took the course. The instructors are highly attentive to the nuances of group classes, and gave each rider in my class a great deal of focused feedback to improve all of our abilities. Felt very secure and safe on the group rides, and loved all of our crew!! read more

Yes, the name says it all... giving us newbies the essential lessons in understanding BEFORE we need it... rather than LEARNING LATER after a mistake.
The entire course is detailed, and the urgency in the lessons... urgency since we are dealing with life and (the outcome of a mistake)... is so relevant.
IMO you cannot learn from a friend. Learn from those that see so many of us new riders that they can see the issues at first glance. Keep your friend your friend. Thanks ProRide!read more

If you're brand new to motorcycles, you'd be a fool to not consider taking the Survival Riding course. The guys are extremely friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Even after I had finished the program, Brian had still provided support with an ICBC licensing issue I had - something he had absolutely no obligation to do.
Kudos to the ProRide guys. Thanks to them, I went from no experience whatsoever on a motorcycle, to full license in about 6 weeks (Yep, passed the ICBC road test on the first try). Now I'm riding my dream bike and still consciously using the defensive techniques they teach. Thanks guys!read more

Originally I chose ProRide because there was no other alternative to acquire my MSA certificate. I didn't regret my choice and after two days on the parking lot with Matt, Otto and Raymond I was ready to ride on the road. On our final day we rode out to Horseshoe bay through the low road and back via the highway in the pouring rain. I had a great time with ProRide and even got comfortable on a 500cc sportbike by the end of the course. I look forward to riding with you again and I'll be sure to recommend the course to my friends!
Cheers,
