About STAR
Welcome to STAR Motorcycle School.
The Skills and Techniques for Advanced
Riding Motorcycle School was created to help you become a more proficient, more confident rider. Whether you're a street rider who wants to improve your skills to gain confidence and become a safer rider, or a track day junkie and racer looking for answers on how to go faster on the racetrack, the STAR Motorcycle School has a training program designed specifically for you.
Chief instructor Jason Pridmore is the 1997 AMA 750 Supersport Champion, 2002 AMA Formula Extreme Champion, and the 2003 FIM World Endurance Champion. He is also the only American to ever stand on the podium of a World Supersport race. JP retired after the 2006 season with 21 AMA National wins including 17 Superstock class wins, (second only to Scott Russell), and countless podiums.

STAR Motorcycle School's team of experienced professional motorcycle instructors include co-owner Mark Gallardo, 1998 AMA 750 Supersport Champion Richie Alexander, 4-time AFM #1 plate David Stanton, industry insider Bill Syfan, veteran moto-journalist Andrew Trevitt, and many others. Our instructors cover thousands of miles, working with hundreds of students a year. They win local, regional, National, and World Championships. They are motorcycle industry veterans with roles small and large; proprietors of multi-line dealerships, engineers of motorcycle performance parts, AMA Superbike Crew Chiefs and Team Managers. They have worked for the Big Four, and tested and developed tires for Dunlop. They are television commentators, and Motorcyclist, Sport Rider and Roadracing World editors and contributors. In short, they have more experience, and more invested in the sport of motorcycling, than all the others schools and trackdays combined.
The entire STAR staff prides itself on being open, approachable, and focused on helping you gain the skills and confidence to accomplish your riding goals.
We always run a two-group format at STAR. The first group is for street riders and newcomers to the track who are most comfortable at a lower pace, the other for more advanced students and those with track experience who wish to explore their limits with fewer restrictions.
