Cascade Motorcycle Safety

"Knowledgeable, friendly, caring, and funny instructors who really help you learn how to ride. Whether it is your first time, or whether you are experienced at riding, they have courses and differentiate their instruction well for you. Tests will always be tests that depend on your final performance, but they will do all they can to build you up for it. Decent bikes available from cruisers to dual sports to some sport bikes. I forget her name, but Nikki? Mikki? Definitely a favorite instructor here by many students. Definitely recommend Cascade for your motorcycle licensure and training."

"I found it extremely suspicious that everyone in my testing sessions was there for there second time. I was the only person that did the test course in 2nd gear and she said I was too slow. Even though I crossed the line then looked over and saw her hit the stopwatch late. Then tells me I was .5 seconds too slow. So now I have to take another day off of work. The other students felt the same way as I did. Seems like a pretty easy way for them to get more students making them test twice. Just charge more money instead of failing me and making me take work off for 2 days now."

"I believe the quality of an education or class is reflected in its results. My spouse took the the Basic rider course and then failed the exam. I had spent weeks teaching her how to ride. She did the course and passed the written exam easily. But, for the practical exam, she was put on a different bike she was unfamiliar with and not adequately briefed on the requirements of the exam. Her questions regarding the test were dismissed. After failing, she was told that she could take private lessons and they would make sure she would pass. I would have thought the 15 hour group class would have made sure she passed!"

"The coaches (Rick, Micky…) here are really nice, humorous and courteous. The classroom sessions are resonable, and they try to make it easy and witty. To be honest, the range sessions could be a little stressful for those who have zero experience on any 2-wheel thing, but you can always get help from the coach. They did a great job. Besides, I got to America last year, and English is not my first language, so I was a little worried in the beginning, it turned out my worry is not necessary. they were always happy to explain things that I didn’t totally understand. I appreciate it."

"I had an opportunity to ride with Jesse and crew at Pacific raceways in Kent at their street strategies course. It was an eye opening experience. Highly recommended. If you get a chance in 2020, go do it. After the BRC it’s a perfect progression path. Had a chance to ride with Jesse to Winthrop as well. He showed me the perfect lines through the curves. Overall a great experience."
