Reviews of 1st Class Motorcycle Training

E. S.

These guys are superb. After a bad experience with another motorcycle trainer I had lost my confidence, but the guys at 1st class got me through my mod 1 and 2, and I thoroughly enjoyed my time with them. They are professional and friendly, and are definitely the ones to use for motorcycle training. Highly recommended 👌

R. H.

I can't recommend this place enough. Went for lessons and CBT with my son. Everyone is so friendly, really made me feel comfortable being a complete novice and a forty something year old woman. They are super hot on all aspects of safety too, which put my mind at ease for my son being let out on the roads by himself.

a. c.

Did my CBT this week and just wanted to say thanks. The instructor ( Brian I think, am bad with names) made us feel at ease and made the process enjoyable and interesting. Will definitely be back to do the full access bike test, and definitely recommend them to anyone else.

C. R.

I have done a cbt and a handful of 1 to 1s with the school. They are all great teachers, very friendly and patient; especially considering I am quite a nervous rider and slower learner which could easily frustrate a teacher. I highly recommend them.

A. P.

I had a 2 hour lesson. While making it a lot of fun, I learnt more in those hours than I have from any other. Next day went back to do my cbt. Put me at ease throughout. Trainers were fun but very knowledgeable and made sure we were competent before letting us near the road. More than happy to recommend

G. S.

Absolutely brilliant bunch of lads. Big thanks for the patience and care you put into your work and making the place feel more relaxed. Massive shout-out to Ryan who helped me improve drastically especially after struggling with a prior accident. Would strongly recommend to anyone doing there cbt. Thanks for the help lads.

S. J.

Okay , Reviewed all 3 training schools in Plymouth this is the best Excellent Tutors Good ethos Nice machine preparation and knowledge shared . Reminds of a standard + 20 years ago that was once a training school and now a examiner For DSA . Keep up the Excellent work ! Well done all clients couldn't thank you enough !

w. b.

Great did what I needed, I passed first time and was happy with Daren who trained me before my test.

A. Z.

Booked a 4 day training course with these guys and passed first time on the 5th may. This was after a very bad experience with another training school. Darren and Kev immediately made me feel comfortable & less anxious, had such a fun time learning, they are both amazing trainers, and definitely got me through my MOD1 & 2...Their knowledge is brilliant. Dan was also very helpful and accommodating. Would HIGHLY recommend this guys to everyone ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

S.

Thanks to Dan today for tutoring me for my first time on a geared bike. Easygoing and good first class tuition. It's all easy when you know how.

P.

Would 100% Recommend, passed first time for my full license with CBT + 5 days of DAS despite the fact that never rode a two wheeler before. Instructors are very good at what they do! Great and friendly atmosphere.

M. D.

Thanks to the whole team for getting me through! I did 3 days and the guys were amazing, their calm, honest approach was what got me through but it would have been wiser to chose a longer training package and have less of a learning curve to ease the pressure. Miracle is I passed! Thank you!

A. S.

Just completed my CBT. Thanks to Ryan and the team for a great day and course.👍👍 Can’t recommend them highly enough. Brilliant 👍👍

B. N.

4 day intensive DAS course. They train you to a higher standard than the test requires, constantly correcting you and advising what you should be doing even when you feel your riding well. What this means is the easiest part of the course is the test at the end which probably explains their very high pass rates. Everyone that week passed first time too, very impressive. Large off road practice area, fantastic bikes to practice on kept to a very high standard and the instructors are very good at keeping you calm and confident if your a new or nervous rider. Top marks!

M. S.

Did my cbt Sunday 1st May, was very nervous had never properly riden a bike before, brian/Nathan our instructor was great, like another review said funny where appropriate but very serious and clear with his instructions. Somebody that obviously cares who's on the road and for your personal safety. Great teacher! I was very nervous again, but listened as best I could, did my research and passed first time!! Highly recommended 😁 don't be persuaded by cheaper imitations. If these guys fail you, you just probably need more practice for your own safety and others .

S. N.

Great set of instructors, who have a wealth of knowledge on motorcycling and all that's needed for you to pass. I took my CBT with them and passed my Category A on the DAS course 3 weeks later. The KTM bikes they use are well maintained and a joy to ride.

k.

Nicest people I've dealt with, extremely helpful throughout the whole day with a smile on their face. Always some humour mixed in and helped the day not be stressful and to pass with all their help. Would recommend to everyone

J.

I booked the five day DAS course as I haven’t driven a motorbike for a long time. The instructors at First Class were very good, especially Kev, who boosted my confidence a lot before the test. I have passed both module one and two in my first attempt. I highly recommend them.

A. P.

I did a 4 day DAS with these guys, passed both mod 1 & 2 on the first try and I'm really pleased that I have a full category A on my licence. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Answered any questions professionally with drawn examples in some cases, explain where you went wrong and how to correct and have some entertaining knowledge of the routes used.

M. T.

Really enjoyed my time here- did a 5 day DAS course, only having completed my CBT a few weeks prior with no previous experience riding motorcycles. Passed both Mod 1 and 2 on the last day. These guys got me to a point very quickly where I probably could have passed on day 3 or 4. Darren and Kev have great teaching styles, with a perfect mix of banter and concentrated skill development, tips to pass the tests, real-life riding tips, praise on what went well, and solid advice on what could be better. Thanks guys! Love from, his Welshness.

C. L. (.

Just completed my cbt for a second time after not riding for 18 months. Fantastic team of instructors. Wouldn't use anywhere else. Brilliant with nervous riders, really supportive and reassuring, able to feedback & correct your faults with humour and positivity! 🤣 Thankyou Kevin & Darren for an awesome day 👍

N. H.

Updated 10/09: Have now completed a 5 day DAS course here, culminating in both Mod 1 & 2 completed successfully. Once again can't recommend the guys enough. Agree with other reviews that intensive bike time throughout the week, with a constant flow of expert observations and advice really do help to iron out key areas of road riding safety to a standard over and above the test requirement. ************* Completed my CBT with the guys at 1st Class last week (June '21), superb throughout. Instructor Ryan was excellent - when new skills aren't yet 'autopilot' you need them laid out in a way so that know what you're doing but equally not information overload, that balance was perfect for me here. On top of that a nice relaxed atmosphere with a good bit of humour puts you at ease from the start. Looking forward to my DAS, already booked with them and would fully recommend to anyone thinking of doing their bike training.

T.

A friendly and non-judgmental team who accommodate every need a rider may have. They use new electric 50cc (equivalent) bikes charged by solar and use large outdoor canopies for the non-driving portions of CBT training to accommodate for covid ventilation. The course is a full length class with everything explained precisely and clearly in an easy to understand and informative manner. The CBT and rental costs are very competitive and the best around. I would highly recommend using them if you need a CBT (as I only did a CBT I can't say anything about other qualifications but I'm sure they uphold the same if not a higher level of professionalism with those too)

m. h.

So I did my cbt today, first time I'd been on a bike, first time I have ever driven on the road I was nervous to say the least and I passed. Had a couple wobbles to start but the guys at 1st class are just that 1st class. They give encouraging feedback and you go until you do it write and SAFE. I will recommend and use 1st class again no doute. Thanks for a fun day guys

O. S.

Came here for my CBT. Absolutely faultless. Started off the day having never driven a bike and finished with 2 hours on the road on a manual 125. Incredibly patient instructor who nailed the balance between joking and being serious and calm when needed. Would absolutely reccomend.

S. H.

Completed my CBT training with H and was fantastic. The day went by fast and felt confident and comfortable by the end of the day. Will be back for my full license test. Highly recommend!

C.

Absolutely brilliant! Passed my CBT last week with Brian. I wasn't very confident about getting on the road but the guys did everything they could to help me pass. Great one to ones, making sure everybody knew what they needed to work on. Great humour, and good fun, all whilst making sure that everyone was safe and taking all the information on board. I will be back for some hour sessions soon to build up my confidence and clutch control. Cheers guys!

A. A.

Got my CBT done here, instructors were John and Jimmy - Amazing experience! Even though I was just renewing my CBT I still learnt a lot and they helped me correct my bad habits. Super patient and great atmosphere all around! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to get their CBT done. Cheers guys!

R. H.

The best training centre (admittedly I don’t know any other, but I don’t want to) Darren and Brian were superb today, very knowledgeable, professional and whilst building a relaxed environment. I chose them after reading their reviews and I was happy to confirm I made the right decision! I thoroughly enjoyed my course today, most importantly, I do feel safe to go and ride my geared bike! I will definitely be back with them for the next stages. Thank you guys, thank you Darren for being so patient! You are a star!!!!

E. C.

Great instructors. Really enjoyed doing my Direct Access with them, would recommend.

A. &. N. B.

Fantastic experience at 1st Class Motorcycle training today. Weather conditions not great, but clear and concise tuition and direction from Ryan, all with a good sense of humour, made for a really positive day. Even as a complete beginner, I felt confident by the end of the day in handling a motorbike. Great team. Highly recommended.

E. S.

It was a lovely day, the instructors are great and attentive. I highly recommend.

D. B.

Highly recommend these guys, the training was 2nd to none. Although it was only my CBT, they helped iron out some bad habits picked up over the years partially preparing me for whats to come on the DAS. Very friendly bunch, great senses of humour whilst still maintaining a professional attitude. What a great team they have here!!

d. H.

Don't use anybody else. Make sure you use first class motorcycle training. The instructors have a good sense of humour and they're easy to get along with. They also give pro advice, the sort of advice you would expect to find only, from a pro motorcycle rider with 25+ years experience Legends, legends, legends. Xx

B. R.

Fantastic day doing my CBT, had instructor Ryan showing me the ropes today, he was so helpful and informative. I was so nervous it being my first time on the road but he put my mind at ease and we even got a few laughs in, would definitely recommend 1st Class to anyone thinking about getting on the road.

s. k.

Had a fantastic day with 1st Class Motorcycle Training. The trainers are excellent and very helpful. If you're looking at doing a CBT or bike test, I would highly recommend using them.

J. D.

Fantastic training from Ryan and the rest of the team, they were friendly and helpful. Took my cbt with him and it was a great experience. Training was clear and taught me alot, the whole day was a enjoyable relaxed experience.

O. O.

Did my CBT and my DAS course with these guys. Very welcoming and always with good advice what to do better to be safe and confident on the road. All was well organised and all questions were answered as well. They got awesome fleet of bikes for all experianc riders.Passed my MOD 2 today for my Direct access to big bikes, so very greatfull for their time and help. Couldn't recomend enough. If you want to do your traning and get on two wheels. This is place you want to do it.

c.

Darren was the best. Thanks Darren. I get nervous at the best of times and he made me feel so much more relaxed. Came away with a DAS pass on the 3 day course and well happy with the training. Unfortunately the weather was out of their control :D But they still lent out some waterproofs, although old and not perfectly waterproof it was very kind of them, much appreciated. Will recommend to all my friends and family +

A. L.

Lovely staff, very easy to get along with. I was quite nervous when I arrived as I had never ridden a bike before, let alone a 125cc ! Although there were 4 students to one instructor, we all got the help we needed to succeed the training. We get a lot of time practising and getting used to the bike before taking on the big road haha ! Would definitely recommend these guys, they make you feel welcome and part of their team :)

S. D.

Great instructors very knowledgeable, put all the candidates at easy, explained the training programs and instructed us with great detail. Good laugh enjoyed the whole day would highly recommend these guys.

R.

Great team of riding teachers/trainers here. All are friendly and are a great laugh. But they take their job seriously and you get what you pay for here. The training is planned out very well.

J. W.

Great team of trainers giving advise where needed and confidence in knowing what to expect on your test. Incredibly helpful and worthwhile. Thanks!

w. l.

Well done guys . I had 3 days lessons with a great team of instructors that push me to the limits to ensure that I wold pass my modules. And I pass first time thanks to the effort and from te team. There's fill things that need to be improve regards to communication, but this has nothing to do with the classes at all . 5 🌟 .

A. W.

Brilliant instructor Brian. Made you feel relaxed. Highly reccommended.

A. C.

The gents there are great, I've done a CBT and a handful of lessons. Much better tutelage than I've had from other places. Large practice area. No complaints at all, cheers guys, I'm sure I'll be back!

P. G.

Just did my CBT here with my wife and in all honesty, I was incredibly nervous. The team here were awesome and Ryan was outstanding. I had more than my fair share of hiccups, to the point I was considering giving up on it. Ryan calmly talked me through what I was doing wrong and was able to show me how enjoyable motorcycles were. Can't thank him enough!!!

T. K.

Trained all the way through from CBT to DAS with these guys. Top instructors that will get you not just riding well enough to pass but well enough to ride any size machine with confidence. The bikes used are largely new and very well maintained with all the electronics you would want at training stage like ABS and anti wheelie. I did a lot of research into local providers before committing to 1st class and definitely made the right decision. Big thanks to Dan and the team.

J. N.

Passed my DAS last week and cannot recommend these guys enough, having little to no experience riding a bike these guys got me test ready within the 4 days. Both the bikes and the instructors are first class. Darren, Andy and Dan thanks again and I wish you all the best.

L. D.

Just completed a Direct Access course with 1st Class and had a great time doing it. I completed my CBT with another local company, but wasnt happy with the quality of training and interaction, then looked these guys up, popped in for a chat, and got myself booked in. The process was painless, and had plenty of communication to keep me informed during the covid pandemic. Arriving on the 1st day, i was offered a choice of machine, and then they did what they do best, assess and instruct. We spent a lot of time riding - if we werent on the road we were doing MOD1 practice. I was advised of bad habits i'd developed on my 125, and how to correct them. I was a little nervous of being offered a KTM Duke 790, but it was a great bike to learn on. Having a large practice area meant I could practice all the elements of the MOD 1 test, which made the test itself a lot easier. Thanks to Dan and Darren for getting me through my test first time, I had a great time! Cheers!

W. W.

I went from having never rode a bike on the road before to getting my CBT on a Honda Grom manual thanks to Darren. I was nervous beyond belief spent weeks worrying about it as i waited for lockdown to lift. When i got there Darren made everything extremely easy to understand and always made sure we understood what he just said regarding the course. Whilst going off onto the most random of subjects in between elements which did a world of good for a nervous person like my self. By the time we were on the road i didn't want it to stop it was fun and educational. 100% Recommend these guys for anyone who is nervous but eager to learn and get onto a bike.

r. h.

Darren one of the instructors is an absolute star. I did my CBT there with my daughter and the level of support he gave to her was fantastic. I intend to get my full licence from them soon. I would recommend this place. Very relaxed teaching environment and also very professional. Thank you.

A. C.

Having completed CBT elsewhere, I booked in for the 5 day A2 course. The professionalism and instructional quality displayed throughout was outstanding. Patient, knowledgeable instructors took me from little to no experience of motorcycling to passing both Mod 1 & Mod 2 tests in one week.

S. R.

The lads down at 1st class made the whole DAS experience really enjoyable and thorough. It was a lot of fun to be a part of and also incredibly professional. They will show you incredibly useful skills and walk you through the tests to break those bad habits. Thanks to their tuition I passed on a 3 day course first time. They will treat you with respect and like an adult and it's obvious that they actually care about ensuring your both skilled and ready. ... great course great guys. Thank you

a. b.

I booked my CBT and DAS on Friday, by the following Friday I had passed my mod 1 and 2. Although 1st class motorcycle training is the only training centre I’ve been to, the result speaks for itself. Apart from the excellent training provided, the people there are great to be around, the bikes were very well maintained and a joy to ride. My experience there was short but very sweet. I’d recommend anyone going there. Thanks again 1st Class!

C. T.

I did my CBT here quite a few years ago now and they are all lovely down there, new bikes in good condition and they all have a sense of humour which really helps to take the edge off when your learning to ride a bike

D. P.

Having achieved my CBT else where I looked for recommendations to do my direct access with a trainers with more space. Time and time again I was recommended First Class. I popped in to meet the lads and within minutes I knew this was where I was going to do my training. I booked a 3 day DAS course and after the first day I felt ready. The second day fine tuned things and by day three I was so relaxed I sailed through both my Mod 1 and Mod 2. I would highly recommend Dan and Darren to anyone. A great training school with what I believe to be the largest training area in Plymouth. They truly are first class.

C. M.

I did a DAS course at 1st Class and passed my Mod 1 and Mod 2 at the first attempt. I was quite an anxious rider and the additional help they provided was great. In the week I was there not a single person failed a test which goes some way to explain how thorough the instruction is. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend 1st Class to anyone wanting to learn to ride.

M. _.

The main man Ryan will sort you out. Best place in Plymouth for a cbt

M. J.

Can’t recommend Dan and his team enough took me through my CBT and then a few weeks later I passed my full bike test. I wasn’t just taught how to pass the test but taught how to ride a bike properly! Cheers guys 👍

P. B.

Great team throughly professional. Managed to pass my direct access in 4 days with no problems. They have a good reputation with the test centre and know exactly what to look for. Their facilities in the car park is second to none which allows you to refine all the skills required for the first module of the test. Highly recommended.

M. F.

Took my DAS with 1st Class Motorcycles and past 1st time on both modules 1 and 2 with no minors and can’t recommend them enough to you, you feel welcome the moment you step foot in the door and whilst having a laugh. Dan and Darren are absolute stars, they train to your ability weather your a quick learner or slow. They want you to feel confident on the bike and in yourself, they even went the length of replacing and adjusting my Clutch and brake levers so that it was more suitable for me. They make it as easy as possible for you and it goes a long way. A massive thanks to them as now it’s a dream I can tick off the list.

J. H.

great bikes, fantastic instructors, wonderful atmosphere. truly a 1st Class experience. I passed both CBT & DAS with 1st Class. Highly recommend them, whether you are a new or seasoned rider.

M. D.

Did my CBT yesterday with Ryan, ready to book my DAS course now. What an absolutely brilliant day. Learnt LOADS and VERY thorough at the same time having a laugh. Very impressed guys. I can't bloody wait to do my DAS with you. 👍🏻👍🏻 If you're thinking of doing your CBT, A2/DAS wouldn't even bother ringing anyone else. These lot have bossed it 💪🏻

W. Y.

WELL RECOMMENDED! The guys at first class have been great tutors! I was an A2 liscence holder going in for the upgrade to full A. Had been previously quoted 4 days training (god knows why) by another Plymouth based riding school. First class had me training for 2 days and I passed both my MOD1 and MOD2 with no advisories what so ever!! Very happy with the result of their training! The fleet of KTM dukes they train with are extremely well presented, and are brilliant bikes for doing the slow Manoeuvres on. The comms equipment is great giving clear voice instruction from the tutors. The tutors are sounds guys, very easy to get along with and give great assistance and instructions. Just what you expect from a professional motorcycle training school! Cheers guys!

J. K.

I was reccomended 1st Class by a couple of friends who did their CBT here and so I did my A2 motorbike lessons and test through these guys (3 day course) and they were brilliant! They were really straight forward, informative and just generally made learning to ride a motorbike a pleasurable experience. The bikes were nice to ride, they had a pretty reasonable sized practice area and the guys that work there obviously enjoy their job. I will be doing my full test with them when the time comes around. I would reccomend 1st Class to anyone wanting to learn to ride a motorbike in this region.

G. C.

I did my CBT on a 125 recently with First Class and can't recommend First Class/Darren enough. It was my first time on a motorbike and the day was pitched perfectly for me, he understood the problems I was having and tailored his teaching to my learning style which was really helpful. Fun day overall

J. B.

A great place to learn! (Please read my review if you are worried or just simply want to know what they are all about) I've not had any experience with bikes or the roads at all, and the first thing I chose to do was a CBT on a manual motorcycle with 1stClassCBT. The motorcycle I used was the Honda MSX 125 (Grom) and was very pleased with using it. Great little bike to learn on especially for a small rider like me. The instructors are great at teaching and just all round great people. I had Darren teach me, great laugh and taught me everything really well. Even though it's a 4:1 when learning in the parking lot he really does take his time with individual students. Darren was really encouraging throughout and seemed like he genuinely wanted me to get my certificate at the end of the day... which I successfully did get! Now moving onto what the day consisted of: First thing they do is talk you through safety gear. Next was getting us to walk around while holding the motorcycle. After they showed us the controls of the vehicle. Shortly after they get you to do some riding exercises. With a manual bike this consisted of finding the biting point and letting the bike drag you along. Getting use to the clutch. After they would make us apply the throttle so we can get some speed and pull away at stops. The next thing we did was cornering and figure of 8's. This was done with low speed control so you can continue moving while holding your balance. Alongside this we did U-Turns. Shortly after all that we started to practice Life Saver Glances before pulling away from a stop. Once that was done we would practice Emergency Stops. Then the cones was set-out like a Junction, we would practice OSM/PSL (Observe, Signal, Manoeuvre/Position, Speed, Look). You had to imagine as if it was a Minor road onto a Major road Junction and vice versa. - Once that was all done it was time for the road. Before you go onto he road they explain the basic stuff from the Highway Code. This involved Junctions, Roundabouts, Signs, Lanes, etc... Now it was time for the road. You get hooked up with a ear piece which will allow you to hear the instructor when on the road. The road session is a 2:1 so 1 in front and 1 behind the instructor. Lasts for 2 hours. Just follow the instructions they give and you will be all good. (Example: "Take the 3rd exit on the upcoming roundabout, we are turning right"). During this period they will get you to do a hill-start (for me it was mixed in during the ride), alongside that they will go to a quiet side road and make sure you can U-Turn between the curbs and they will make you do an emergency stop too. Once that is done you will return to the test centre and hopefully you passed! (Don't worry if you don't feel confident before the road session, they will ask you or if they feel like you are not confident enough they won't take you out for that part. Re-booking with them is 50% off so £50 for the next session if you don't achieve it first time round) Honestly I can't express this enough... Great people and a great laugh. They really do make you feel comfortable even when being a beginner. A lot of support and encouragement. Darren is a great guy and a great instructor! (P.S. A Photo of the motorcycle I was using!)

Superb training establishment. I have just completed the 4 day DAS course, and cannot speak highly enough of the training staff that delivered the course. Any issues or questions i had throughout the course were promptly addressed, and I can highly recommend the company to anyone who wants to gain their licence.

1. C. M. T.

The guys at 1st Class Motorcycle Training were absolutely outstanding. The training schedule was tailored to my needs, and got me through my CBT and full licence course with no problems at all. Thanks guys, you really are 1st Class in more ways than just your company name !!

M. S.

Great experience training here for my full license. Awesome staff, helpful at every turn to get to and above the standard needed for my test. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to learn to ride.

B. R.

Undertook a 3-day Direct Access course with Dan in March and was very impressed by their ability to match their teaching level to the ability of the rider. I had picked up more bad habits than I realised after 2 years on a 125 on L plates. Luckily these were beaten out of me in time to pass both modules first attempt. Big thanks to 1st Class...

L. P.

" Fantabulous " Such a lovely place to practice. All the trainers are very gentle & honestly professional. My strong recommendation for your training & success to pass your motorcycle riding test(s). Lenin

h. d.

So if you ever need to do a CBT 1st class is the one to chouse . They're very good very funny very pacient they have new bikes and you'll have loads of fun ... I promiss ... ask for Ryan he's the best you could ask for ...

K. C.

Did my CBT bike test with Ryan, really nice guy, patient with learners, amazing bike instructor, would absolutely recommend anyone to do their bike tests here. Passed first time

C. T.

Just completed a 3 day coarse for my full bike licence, having done my cbt a few times, I thought this would be a breeze, how wrong was I? However, with massive help from the incredibly patient and supportive instructors I passed my Mod1 and Mod2 These guys are exactly what they say they are 1ST CLASS!

D. V.

Absolutely amazing time completing my cbt with Ryan. Everyone working here very professional, but also friendly, put me at ease and made the day a great one. Will definitely be back for my DAS 👍

R. J.

Top quality motorcycle training, very friendly tutors.

A. o.

Took my DAS course with 1st class this week and passed the mod 1 and mod 2 with in a week witch is only down to the the instructors dan and Darren. They both make you feel at Ease and teach to the highest standard not to mention having a laugh along the way. Highly recommend if your looking to book your CBT or DAS. 1st class experience!!

K. M.

Absolutely 1st Class! Great teaching with regular comprehensive feedback. No hidden fees; honest, patient tuition. Ignore the negative feedback - my pal was on the same course and said the instructor spent most of his time with the woman and her friend. This guy is an idiot!

D. J.

My third or fourth CBT (I know I need to complete my full test). I mostly drive cars and vans. . Trainer - an excellent trainer (female) Bikes: decent KTM 125s Gripe: booked on to a shortened 'experienced only' CBT course. 1 of the 4 persons on the CBT that day could barely ride a moped. This delayed the whole day and we finished later than planned, on the website it said strictly experienced riders and anyone attended who was deemed not to be would not be able to partake in the course. I was a bit scared that someone so incompetent who didn't seem to know any of the highway code was allowed to pass. Personal opinion I know, but as a cyclist, car, and van driver for 15+ years I'm worried that people like that are allowed on the road behind even a 50cc scooter.

I. P.

Just got my CBT with Ryan today on 23/08/20 , top man in all ways , profesional , makes you laugh and feel very confortable , i would deff. go there again if i will need another cbt.Ryan has both knowledge and patience to deal with everyone, he made me feel relaxed and explained bit by bit every single step before, durring and after.Indeed îs fun and for the rest of you guys out there, just remember coz of ppl like Ryan we learn how to ride SAFE. Whoever doesn’t belive me, come knock on my door :)) i’ll make you belive:D P.Iulian.

M. W.

No.1 place to take CBT, it's a 1 day course Inc pass certificate. Its especially good for those who have just turned 16yrs and want to ride a moped. Plus it's only an extra £20 if you want to hire their bike for the day.

L. A.

Always a pleasure to be at,friendly and patient instructors. Fantastic range of bikes to learn on. Never had a bad experience. Would use again.

P. ..

Great instructors. Got me passed first time!

P. R.

Passed my CBT with these guys, great instructors, very patient with new/inexperienced riders. Looking to do the DAS here too..

D. M. P.

Did my CBT and DAS course here. Passed everything first time. Patient and thorough instructors who make you feel welcomed and at ease. Definitely recommend these guys

C. D.

had a great day doing my CBT , a friendly and fun group of trainers who were always watching,.correcting and helping. I Wouldn't go any where else ...

A.

As a lot of other people say don't go else where as these people are the best. The large training area is also brilliant. Best bike trainers I have been to so far was fun and a lot of good laughs.

A. c.

passed first time !!! Basically don't go anywhere else. These are the nicest guys who focus you and genuinely enjoy what they do. All your nerves and worries will disappear as it's such a relaxed place to learn. Good luck to future riders and much thanks to everyone at first class.

I just completed a CBT at 1st class, I'm very impressed with the course I have previously used other companies in the area but will be back for my next renewal or to get my full license, great guys

B. S.

This is an amazing place to do your bike tests I did my CBT with them and have just passed my DAS first time, the guys there work so well together to give you the very best chance to pass first time but also give all the knoledge you need to ride safely on the road Thanks again

S. W.

Learned a lot and passed both Mod1 and Mod2 on the first attempt. I wasn't a natural at learning to ride (at all!) but the instructors were very patient and helpful.

S. G.

Great place! got my CBT there a few days ago, very friendly and knowledgeable instructors

j. s.

Well organised company, great at teaching and bikes but mostly great people 👍 Thank you for getting me through my test on the first go with 0 minors on mod1 and 2 !!!!!!

m. h.

Had a full days training with them for my MOD 2 retest. Very thorough and thankfully passed. I’m sure I would have passed first time if I had done all my training with them.
