"Where do I start ! Such an amazing experience. I learned so much in the class that when taken the test it was like an overview. The instructors were all helpful and knowledgeable. They had much patience to teach and Reteach. The class and course was fun best thing I ve done all 2020!!!"

"Best motorcycle training, I took the basic course to get my license and Peter Wolfe, the instructor was absolutely amazing in explaining and demonstrating all the exercises. I ll definitely come back to take the intermediate and advanced courses to be an even better rider."

"Wonderful experience. I had zero motorcycle experience going in. They covered all the basics and got me proficient in two days. The classroom exercises were straight forward and prepared me for the test. The practical exercises on the bike were a challenge for me at first but became second nature by the end of day two. I would recommend this class to both new and experienced riders looking to get a Colorado endorsement."

"Took the basic rider class so I can learn how to ride & get my endorsement. Loved every second of the class. Peter was a GREAT instructor. He was very knowledgeable & informative. Took the extra time to make sure every student understood & was able to complete the exercise correctly. I will be back for the intermediate class. Thank you Peter & Iron Buffalo Team."

"Training was excellent! Both Chadwick and Doug presented the material in an accessible and informative way, and we had a lot of fun at the same time! I would strongly recommend the Beginner Riding Clinic to anyone that wants to learn about motorcycles and be safe on the road. We can't wait to come back for the Intermediate courses.Thanks for everything!"
― Ricardo DaSilva
"I took the trike training class. The classroom part was a 3 hour zoom class. This was great, because it made our on the bike training day shorter and more fun. The class was small which was great to have better attention from the instructor. Lot's of good information and training. I highly recommend taking this class if you are going to ride a trike of any brand."
