Anyone have any opinions on one vs. the other for the initial safety course? I hear they are both very similar in that they allow you to choose different bikes and offer the same amount of instruction time and similar class sizes.
I was leaning toward one of those two schools because one has the times and dates I am looking for and one does not. But communication was difficult with the particular school I contacted. It took a long time to get back to me, and when they did, the information that I had previously told them about myself was wrong. This didn't exactly inspire confidence. I also felt there was a lack of enthusiasm with the rep I spoke to. Hopefully this was just the sales rep and not the actual instructor.
I am looking for a course which will be good for someone who likes to ask questions (as you can see from my posts, I have many). I heard that many of these courses are taught by enthusiasts, and so that's what I expect to see when I go - enthusiasm. I also want to avoid courses where particular students get most of the attention (i.e. ladies, friends of the instructors, etc.). I have heard of this happening.
I don't want to smite any school's reputation, so if anyone has particular incidents, please don't post them here, but PM me. But if someone has general reasoning for recommending one school over the other, I would appreciate the information here!
