Although I did not complete the class (riding street is not like riding dirt - just sayin') I really enjoyed the staff and the knowledge of the instructors. One of the instructors was the first female bike cop in Los Angeles, kicked off the American Gladiator series in 89, has won numerous riding awards and use to race for Husqavarna in the Baja races. So I felt like she had experience and knowledge on several topics that were of concern to me which made me feel more at home in the class.
When taking this class, you take a written test and a bike riding test that allows for you to bypass both of the DMV tests and just go up to the DMV and get your new license. I consider this to be a bonus as I have heard that the DMV riding test is pretty tight and harder for novice riders to pass. So if you take this class, that's something you do not have to be concerned about. And you are tested by your instructor.

I hope that I will be able to get back into the class to pick up where I left off and not have to pay extra, but we will see after I have knee surgery and heal up. I will post an update then.
