I am seraching for a while an example on how to use PyMc/PyMc3 to do classification task, but have not found an concludent example regarding on how to do the predicton on a new data point. I am currious if some could give me some references.

pymc will not provide you pretty sklearn-style .predict method for this case, however you can do it on your own. The idea is simple enough: you should draw coefficients for the classifier using pymc, and after it use them for the classifier itself manually.
You can see a very basic example at this blogpost or more complicated case at pymc3 documentation.
