“The Best Training for Skills and Safety” – “World class rider training” John Bassi
Get yourself safely on to the roads for just £400 and experience the best tuition available. As an established independent school we provide the best and most personal training available to develop your skills and safety. Go on to get your full motorcycle licence with us, in style.
We have 2 key locations for our rider training: Yatton, just off the A370 on the south side of Bristol BS49 4AW, and in Weston-super-Mare we are located next to the Weston-super-Mare driving test centre BS23 3PZ.
We provide bespoke tuition. Our motorcycle training for new riders starts at £155 for our Introductory Riding Course and enrols you on to our unique New Rider Scheme. Our method is absolutely the very best way to learn to ride a motorcycle. Once you’ve completed our Introductory Riding Course and afterwards your separate CBT course at £245, you can go on to the Direct Access Scheme (DAS) or the full A2 motorcycle licence. If you choose to get further practice on your own on the roads, riding a 125 for a while, you can ride unaccompanied with L plates. If you are renewing your CBT licence then it’s just £180 for your course.
Lessons by the hour at £67.50 for A2 and Direct Access
Similar to the structure of driving lessons, we provide lesson by lesson learning at a pace, price and time frame to suit you – except there are no evening or weekend lessons. A motorcycle, with kit, including a helmet jacket and gloves are provided when required. We have secure off road training facilities and great instructors, all approved by the DVSA to assist you in gaining confidence and control to ride your motorcycle.
Day Courses at £395 per day for A2 and Direct Access
Another option for you, if you want to reach your goals at an earlier stage, is to book onto our Day Courses. This is a great way if you have the stamina! It’s also a good way to get started and have a few extra hours under your belt early on.
Unlimited Bespoke Tuition Direct Access or A2 course with Paul Dickinson – Individual Tuition for Individuals
The A2 and Direct Access courses get you on your way to ride any size of bike – you will need to be 24 and over for DAS, and age 19 or over for the A2 licence. To have Paul Dickinson as your instructor will be unique. The course for Direct Access with Paul is a fixed price of £2765 plus test fees. In return you will receive bespoke tuition from an established industry expert and unlimited high quality tuition time. This time will be given until you feel and Paul sees that you are ready to pass your tests at a good and secured standard. Your skills will be solidly in place and you will have several mock tests for your on road Module 2.
You will be at a much higher level than the ‘average’ test pass after this course with Paul, ensuring you have the safest and best possible start to your motorcycling career. The Enhanced Rider Scheme certificate is issued by Paul as part of this course also, once you have your full licence. The first 6 months after passing the motorcycle test are the most vulnerable for new licence holders. Paul’s high quality course takes this into consideration. And never worry about riding in the rain again!
The route to your full motorcycle licence
Experienced and considerate instructors are here to guide you to your goals. Our courses are delivered in a personal style to guarantee that the topics and skills are covered thoroughly, and at your learning pace. If you’re comparing prices for a course, please take this into consideration. The duration and structure of courses varies across the industry and a quick look at prices may well not reveal this. We have package options with discounts or ‘pay-as-you-go’ stand alone lessons.
Our training enhances what you already know as a car driver, and goes on to develop essential new skills to be a really accomplished and safe biker. Cutting back on training isn’t a good idea for your skills and safety, so do consider getting as much time in the seat as as you possibly can.
The route to a full licence itself can appear complex at first glance, so it’s best to recognise that it comes in 5 key stages. We’ve outlined these below for you.
Learn to ride a geared 125cc motorcycle – Complete CBT – Pass the Motorcycle Theory Test – Complete Module 1 – Complete Module 2. CBT and theory can be completed in either order.
The A1 category is for a full licence on a 125cc, the category A Direct Access Scheme (DAS) or category A2 are to ride big bikes. All licence categories must complete CBT, Theory, Module 1 and Module 2.
