Phoenix Motorcycle Training - Bath: Reviews
Fantastic experience: After a bad CBT experience with another company, I had a couple 1-to-1 sessions with Chris and then completed the CBT with Jorge & Chris. Both of them were fantastic, patient with clear guidance throughout the sessions. Would 100% recommend.
Fantastic experience: Had a great time jorge was amazing instructor didn’t throw us in something we wasn’t sure of and showed us how to ride properly on the road.
Thank you for your review, Its great to hear that Jorge adapted the training to make sure you were all comfortable with the tasks before continuing and you feel confident going out on the road. Happy riding and we hope to see you again.
Fantastic experience: We had a brilliant instructor called Jorge for our CBT today. He did a great job at explaining everything, making us feel relaxed and instilling us with a sense of confidence at every step of the way from training at the centre to being out on the road. I would absolutely recommend him and Phoenix Motorcycle Training to anyone!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant experience here - did my CBT here a few months ago and wanted to upgrade to an A2. Chris was excellent, an effective teacher who will tell you how it is and make sure you improve. Passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 first try thanks to him - definitely recommend.
Thank you for your review and recommendation. Its great to hear that you enjoyed your training with Chris and found that you improved your skills as well as successfully upgrading your licence on your first go! Congratulations again and safe riding!
Fantastic experience: Chris is an excellent teacher!
Hi Jonah Thank you for your feedback. Its great to hear you enjoyed your training with Chris. Happy riding!
Fantastic experience: Great detail. Thanks Chris
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: Absolutely good experience and very professional
Thank you for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed your experience with us. Safe riding
Negative experience: *update* I was already contacted twice - once by a sympathetic instructor telling me to leave the situation with him. Secondly by a girl from office, who doubled down, instead of apologising, and said that I'd consented to paying again when it was rescheduled the first time! I said that I hadn't because why would I pay for a session I never received, so she clearly did an abysmal job of communicating that the first time round. You say you've reached out to reschedule but I wouldn't say your 'customer service' has left me with any faith this issue will be resolved. *original post* Awful experience. Turned up and they didn't have a smaller bike to accommodate me (5ft) and told it was my fault for not booking a small bike. Did not refund my money, told would rebook me in for a different session (1 month later) and had the cheek to ask me to pay again! Not an inclusive place clearly with terrible misleading customer service.
We understand how frustrating it must have been to arrive and find that we didn't have a suitable bike. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and the negative experience you had. We are committed to providing exceptional customer service and ensuring that all our students have a positive training experience. The motorbike we have at Bath for smaller riders was already being used by another student and we were unaware that you required a lowered bike for your session. We do ask everyone in the confirmation email to contact us so when we are aware that more than one student needs a smaller motorbike for training, we can arrange for lowered motorbikes from our nearby schools to be transported to the right location. We have tried to get in touch with you today to arrange a replacement training session for you, but have not been able to reach you. We hope to arrange a replacement session at a time that works for you and with the right sized motorcycle available soon.
Fantastic experience: I done my CBD with Chris, I couldn't recommend more as he was a great instructor and made the day very enjoyable while taking me through the essentials
Hi Philip, Thank you so much for your kind recommendation. Its great to hear that you enjoyed your training day with Chris and are ready to get on the road. Happy riding and we hope to see you again :)
Fantastic experience: Great experience training for the Mod 2. Entertaining day, full of practical information to keep you safe and aware on the road. Had a load of fun! Thank you :)
Fantastic experience: just passed mod 2 highly recommend and would point anyone in there direction
Fantastic experience: Friendly instructors
Fantastic experience: Very helpful company easy to deal with and very accommodating. Chris the instructor I had was very knowledgeable and helpfull he was very easy to get along with and made the whole process alot easier and less daunting to get my full licence A+++
Hi Chris, Thank you so much for your feedback. Its fantastic to hear you enjoyed your training with Chris and successfully gained your full licence. We hope you enjoy the open road on your bike :)
Fantastic experience: Very thorough training and practicing of skills.
Positive experience: Training was very good, facility's are non existent though couldn't even get water properly, I had to drink from this old broken tap like a dog.
Fantastic experience: Easy to book, phone up they send via email proposed dates and a payment portal so you can sort it all online. The training is very detailed so you know exactly what you need not only to pass but to ride safely once you have passed. I would recommend them to anyone looking to learn.
Hi Toby, Thank you for your recommendation. Its great to hear you found your training easy to arrange and enjoyable. Enjoy riding and we hope to see you again
Fantastic experience: Had a great day with phill. Very clear instruction. Made to feel very relaxed. He just made the whole day comfortable with the right amount of humour added. Will hopefully be doing my direct access with him. Thanks for a great day
Hi Ian, Thank you for your feedback, Its great to hear that you enjoyed your day and training with us :) Hopefully we shall see you soon for your DAS course but in the meantime happy riding!
Fantastic experience: Did my C.B.T in October 23, my Mod 1 and Mod 2 in January 24. My instructor, Chris, was occasionally funny () but above all patient with all the students I have been on the course (s) with, (especially me!) I had not been on a bike for many years but Chris managed to instill a confidence and a calmness to the proceedings that comes from having 20years training experience, he has nearly seen it all! If you want your CBT or full bike license then I 100% recommend Phoenix. Thank you guys.
Hi Jon, Thank you for you recommendation. Its great to hear that you enjoyed your time with Chris and your training with him. We will try and work on his jokes! Congratulations again on passing your full licence and happy riding!!!
Fantastic experience: Chris is fantastic! So funny and makes everyone feel really comfortable and safe with little jokes and realism! Fantastic teacher, really enjoyed my time at Pheonix Motorcycles and I am far more confident with a motorbike now than I ever would’ve been if I hadn’t gone! 10/10
Thank you for your feedback. Its wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your training with Chris and his training has given you the confidence boost with your riding. Enjoy the open road and we will see you out there!
Fantastic experience: The team at Phoenix Motorcycle Training were absolutely fantastic throughout my Mod 1 and Mod 2 training and tests. As a result of their support and guidance I was able to pass both modules first time and obtain my full licence. If you are looking for a CBT or DAS training course in the Bath area I would absolutely recommend using Phoenix Motorcycle Training.
Fantastic experience: I did my CBT with a different school, and showed up at Phoenix with no meaningful riding experience. Chris’ skill and patience got me through my mod 1 and mod 2, both at the first attempt. Highly recommended.
Hi Neil, Thank you so much for your recommendation and congratulations again on successfully completing your Module 1 & 2 with Chris. Enjoy getting out on the open road :)
Negative experience: Instructor CHRIS wasn’t really nice to my friend and he was very rude to her and she came crying to home. he did not even try to help her. Would not suggest this place to go for if your a girl. #Superlowkey
Thank you for taking the time to comment. Please can you ask your friend to contact us [email protected] so we can find out exactly what happened. Unfortunately, we need to know more details so we can understand your comments
Fantastic experience: I had an yet another excellent experience with Phoenix Motorcycle Training in Bath. My instructor this time was Simon who was incredibly helpful, patient, and had a wealth of knowledge to share. Since my last two CBT's, they've upgraded all their bikes to modern, new models. This gave me the fantastic opportunity to test out various bikes that I could actually buy and I absolutely fell in love with the little Honda Grom. Thanks to the quality training and the chance to explore different manual bikes, I'm now looking forward to the possibility of taking my direct access for a full bike license within the next 2 years!! Highly recommended!!
Fantastic experience: The training was good. Thank you.
Hi Hamid, thank you for the feedback! We are pleased you had a positive experience on your training, please can you explain why you have given us a 1 star rating? Get in touch with us if there was anything you were unhappy with or please amend the rating to reflect your review. All the best, and we look forward to seeing you again for any further training.
Fantastic experience: Phoenix motorcycle training bath carried out all my training from CBT to completion of my full license. Chris the instructor was great throughout, very knowledgeable and great training methods used throughout! Would highly recommend Chris and phoenix if you are looking for any motorcycle training!
Fantastic experience: Class day, bit odd to be in rugby changing rooms. How ever Chris was brilliant and very concise, he made the learning experience fun and inclusive. The practical part was amazing riding with Chris in your ear talking about random stuff, and ofcourse giving us directions and making me feel at ease. It was a very good experience overall. Chris you're a legend hope your drum play comes along
Fantastic experience: Thanks Mark his is a very good teacher
Fantastic experience: So happy to have passed my mod 2 test and finally get my full licence. Chris at the Bath site was awesome from start to finish, gives you all the information you need to pass, lets you crack on and eases the pressure off with some brilliant jokes and commentary through out. Whether you're doing your cbt or full licence training I'd definitely recommend going here.
Fantastic experience: Phoenix have been great from start to finish. I was able to complete my CBT, as well as the direct access course for my A license. Thanks to Twiggy and Chris for the excellent instruction and fun rides. Cheers.
Fantastic experience: Doing my full licence (hopefully) with Phoenix bath over the next 2 months. I have done four CBT training days in my life and this one with Chris was the best. The communication on the road was nothing but perfect. He is a credit to the company. I was unsure who to book my full test with to be honest but after the CBT day I will be chosing Phoenix Bath. See you soon
Fantastic experience: Excellent instructor with excelled skills for basic training provided on ground with acurate supervision provided under instructor Chris, hats off and he had explained the thoroughly under dvla road safety guidelines and, we enjoyed two set of practicals with live road.
Fantastic experience: Had such a great experience with you guys will soon come again to pass my full license instructer Mark
Fantastic experience: I would like to thank Chris for his brilliant lessons, patience, proficiency and great atmosphere! He is an absolute master!
Positive experience: Chris was my son's instructor and he made a very big impression on my son. He failed his first CBT on a very minor u turn event so he just needed a bit more practise. A 1-2-1 and off he goes! Did his CBT and passed with flying colours! Seems to be a bit of an endeavour with the admin side of things. Being told what he needs by an instructor didn't translate to the booking team and i was getting emails to do more 1-2-1 lessons and full cbt's when he didn't need it and that can be costly. I know people need to make money but it felt a bit like i was being pushed to do more when it wasn't necessary. The instructors and teams were amazing and have given the confidence my son needed to be an excellent and safe rider.
Fantastic experience: It’s a best experience of doing the cbt with phoenix. Sorry Simon my bad I almost forgot to give a review of my experience so helpful can’t ask anything more than that how he guides us. Treated kindly and with respect of making us comfortable with all the process. Guide me well with the rules to be safe and careful on road for everyones best interest. I really like the experience and I would recommend a 100% all the best team phoenix and especially SIMON legend .
Negative experience: This is a not so pleasant learning process. Since I paid the money, you should provide corresponding services. Due to the misjudgment of my level by the coach, after the failure of mod2, I have to spend £250 a day of training fees and £200 a day of mod 2 fees. Quite expensive, I took cbt and mod 1 here, and mod 2 at the same time 3 times. Here I really want to ask about "C". If I had a lot of riding problems during the training day, why didn't I tell me in more details and cancel my test? Instead of being like a cowboy making me pay again and again and wasting my time. And if you don't want to teach me, you can ask another coach to teach. Here to inform the readers that I am a complete novice and have no driving experience in the UK before learning cbt. A instructor “C” in this driving school asked me to train for a day, and I took it to test mod 2 in about 5 hours. How ridiculous! If you don't have time to arrange my courses, then you have to refuse my payment, and make me wait for almost a month every time to practice for the exam Regarding prices, prices are available on their website. But here is a reminder to everyone who wants to sign up for study, if you fail mod 2, you need to spend 250 pounds a day for training and 200 pounds for a test fee. At the same time, you still need to wait for nearly a month to arrange your training and test. I already have my driver's license now. And spend less money. I still use the latest mt07 2022 in another driving school, not the broken cb500 and dilapidated z650 of this Phoenix driving school. At last,I spent about 1500 pounds in this driving school, and I didn't get the service and guidance I deserved. If you have no road experience at all, I don't recommend you to come here to learn. High fees and long waits.
Thank you for reviewing your training with Phoenix. May I ask you to contact us at [email protected] with the email address your registered with us with, as I am unable to locate you on our system from the details you have posted this review with. I will then be able to respond to the points you have made. Many thanks.
Fantastic experience: My son completed his cbt tuesday thanks for everything what a great instructor very knowledgeable would recommend to all
Fantastic experience: Great experience, with a friendly team. Training days with the instructors were really informative and the office were helpful getting dates sorted for training and tests. Couldn't fault any of the team
Fantastic experience: Chris was an outstanding bloke, always straight to the point in telling you what you need to do, done my training with him on the Monday and had passed my test by 9am on Thursday. everything was such an easy process, will definitely be recommending here to everyone.
Fantastic experience: Phoenix Motorcycle Training has been a breathe of fresh air, from Steve in the Office who guided me through the requirements to Simon, Andy & Chris my various instructors along the way from CBT to Mod 2 Pass everyone has been knowledgeable , friendly and professional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Phoenix to anyone starting on their motorcycle journey. Thanks and great work :)
Fantastic experience: Chris was my instructor for my mod 1 and mod 2. Was great fun, personable, taught with clear aims, corrected me when necessary and most importantly, taught me how to pass! Chris also went out of his way to help me when needed. Highly recommend Phoenix!
Fantastic experience: Excellent training from Twiggy/Andrew who skilfully made the day very informative and interesting. Good set up and well organised, would recommend
Fantastic experience: Excellent place to learn, Mitchell is a great instructor and genuinely nice person who makes you feel at ease, thanks Mitchell for helping me pass
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with Will - very patient! Then did my mod one and two with Chris also very patient - took a few goes on mod 1 (my fault) but passed Mod 2 first-time Thanks both of you for what (with hindsight of course after the sweat of the tests) was a great experience
Fantastic experience: Fantastic day of training with everything clearly explained. The instructor Mitch was very thorough, friendly and happy to take on any questions or concerns. New 21 plate bikes, great to ride.
Fantastic experience: Really friendly staff arranging the course and tests. Instructors on the days were so helpful. Giving enough advice mixed with freedom to allow real progress and development of good habits. Prepping for final test Will was outstanding in ensuring felt confident and calm. Have already and will recommend again.
Positive experience: Good experience
Fantastic experience: The instructor was so nice and helpful making it simple and easy to learn how to ride and the people who were with me were also very nice. Really enjoyed my time there
Positive experience: I really enjoyed the CBT training that i took part in on 04/06/22. The instructor was very knowledgeable and gave very practical and concise instruction on the day. My only issue is that the practice pad we trained on at the Walcott Rugby club is too small. It means that whilst practice riding you are constantly going around in circles which means that trying to concentrate on the area of concern at a particular moment is hard. I do also think that it would make sense if the CBT for brand new riders who have had no experience on tow wheels should be 2 days not one as there is a lot of practical and theory that needs to be taken on board in a one very long day course. However i do now have the bug after completing the course and do want to get out and purchase my first 125 bike so i can practice for passing my test.
Fantastic experience: Simon was patient and extremely helpful. I'm very glad I asked Phoenix to help me to get my CBT! 10/10 - great experience.
Fantastic experience: Just Successfully passed Mod 1 & 2 with Phoenix Bath. Our instructor Chris ( From Bath) was amazing. His instructions were clear and extremely practical. I felt fully prepared for both of my tests. I would totally recommend them to anyone thinking of getting their full bike licenses. Im 53 by the way, so apparently you can teach old dogs new tricks. Thank you once again Chris, and the Phoenix team, you were brilliant.
Fantastic experience: My Wife and I took our CBT's at Walcot RFC last Saturday with Phoenix having not ridden any form of motorbike or scooter before. Mark was genuinely friendly and put any worries and reservations we had at rest. He took his time to go through all the procedures and manoeuvres in a helpful and informative manor. Really do feel he went above and beyond to make us feel at easy which is so important when out on the road. We both now feel confident and will have no hesitation in booking with Phoenix for our Full Tests. Thanks Guys! Luke & Sophie
Fantastic experience: Did 4 days of intensive full bike licence with Chris, Passed mod 1 first time and mod 2 after third time. Messed up a couple times due to nerves so cant blame motoXP for that (now phoenix) Chris was able to quickly identify my strengths and weaknesses and correctly tailor the training towards those problematic areas that could be an issue on the test.
Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoyed my CBT with Mark (instructor). Been riding for a few months now having completed a CBT two years ago but still came across some handy titbits to help me with my riding. Highly recommend
Fantastic experience:
Fantastic experience: CBT - We had an excellent and thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish. Brand new to riding, nervous. We were put at ease and flew through with no problems. Now looking forward to continuing to DAS course.
Fantastic experience: Direct access course passed in a week. Adrian very helpful and worked around my limited availability. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Did Direct Access with Adrian. An intense four days of training with all the needed knowledge taught very well! Passed Mod 1 & 2 first time. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: Thanks to the excellent instruction from the team of instructors at Moto XP I passed my bike test. After the nerves getting the better of me during my mod 1, with more lessons and focusing on where it went wrong on the correct I finally got there on the second attempt. Having gone from never riding a geared bike to passing my test I cannot recommend a training school better equipped and as knowledgeable as Chris, Adrian and Mark.
Fantastic experience: I did my DAS with Adrian and Chris this month and they were both brilliant. Calm, professional and informative trainers who won't only help you pass your test, but also make you a safe and capable rider. I highly recommend them if you're looking to do a DAS course and you're near the area.
Fantastic experience: Excellent training for an A2 license. Coronavirus meant I had to reschedule my training multiple times but this was no trouble at all. Chris is a great instructor and gave me all the confidence I needed to pass both modules first time. Will definintly be going back in a couple of years time to get the full A license.
Fantastic experience: It had been 40 years since I last road a motorcycle and after doing my CBT with Chris I went on to get my full A licence with Adrian in only 4 days ! Had fantastic time with a totally professional team !! I would definitely recommend them.
Negative experience: The instructor poor communication, unprofessional behaviour, got really nervous and aggressive I payed 150£pound for training..at 10 o’clock ..the trainer stop me kick me out ..I lost my money and my time
Fantastic experience: Honestly, what a year everyone has had to handle but, these guys have kept communications clear and honest when so much control has been taken out of all our hands. When we finally got round to completing my A licence Chris was fantastic, really professional tuition, always talking and communicating what he was doing and helping us learn not just to stay safe on the road but how to position ourselves to ride smoothly and efficiently so we enjoyed it. Thank you so much to both Chris and Adrian for being top no nonsense instructors.
Fantastic experience: At the beginning of April I only had a few months experience on a 125, by the end of the month I had my A licence! Thanks to Adrian and Chris for calm, expert tuition, and getting me through it. I can now get a bigger bike and continue my mid life crisis with better acceleration!
Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend Moto xp enough, Adrian and Chris are fantastic and provide the best instruction to get you through your test. I started my CBT last Sunday and DAS training the weekend just gone having never ridden a geared bike before. Due to their down to earth and professional approach I passed my full licence today! Couldn't have done it without them. Safe riding!
Fantastic experience: I can't praise these guys enough. I've been through my CBT and DAS with hiccups on the way (my own fault) and they have been optimistic, encouraging and patient. The bikes are well maintained and fit for purpose, most with heated grips (which are fantastic). The communication is always good and despite the pandemic they remained responsive and always keen to get me in my test as soon as possible. Well done Moto XP.
Fantastic experience: Very great training and advice. Tried their best to fit me in as soon as possible despite the current circumstances. Got me a first time pass on both tests. Cheers Adrian!
Negative experience: This went really badly for me. I asked information about getting a full A license since I have a 200cc scooter and was directed toward a DAS course. I was skeptical about it because I have no experience with motorbikes with gears so I asked by email and at the phone if I needed to book further training before the course but was reassured that most people are able to learn it in four days of course. I had the CBT course on a moped which was a mistake obviusly but nobody told me about it and I expected to be taught how to use geared motorbikes during the course anyway. The first day of the course I was sent away and I lost the money because they refused to train me since I had no experience with geared bikes. Fair enough but I asked so many times about it and nobody told me anything. Really poor communication, unprofessional behaviour, the instructor got really nervous and aggressive as I mentioned him I don't have experience with geared motorbikes the first days of the course (just the day before we spoke at the phone and I mentioned it again). Also the time of the course was moved twice, it was at 7 am first, then moved to 6:30 am, then at 6:00 just the day before the course. This for me is as unprofessional as you can get and not worth the money.
Fantastic experience: Excellent professional and friendly training from Adrian and Chris, mod 1 and 2 passed first time with a clean sheet, couldn’t be happier.
Fantastic experience: Both Chris and Adrian are great instructors, as a few other reviews say you're taught to ride well and safe so passing the test is much easier! Would highly recommend moto xp
Fantastic experience: Big thanks to Adrian for the good training, I passed my full license No time wasted, they give you the best, straight forward and after to the exame. 5 .
Fantastic experience: I received training for my A2 licence from Adrian and Chris. They were both very professional instructors with a good sense of humour and a calm approach to teaching. Adrian has handled the coronavirus situation really well, and got me booked in for my tests as soon as he physically could, which I really appreciated. I'll be back in 2 years to upgrade to my A licence!
Fantastic experience: Passed my CBT with Martin today - Very welcoming, knowledgeable & friendly – good amount of time out on the road too. Would definitely recommend & looking forward to doing my DAS with them ASAP
Fantastic experience: Brilliant training from Chris helping me pass my Direct Access first time. Exceptional knowledge of both motorcycles and training methods, and a good laugh to boot.
Fantastic experience: Trained by Chris and Adrian for my full category A motorbike licence. Both are really good instructors and very patient, they know how to get the best out of people. Would definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: I did my CBT and direct access(module 1&2) through MotoXP. I had Marc for CBT and Adrian, the owner, for mod 1 & 2. I also met Chris during both modules. All three were absolutely fantastic throughout. Very friendly people that I felt were genuinely interested in me being able to pass. I have my US motorcycle and car license so I wasn't new to riding bigger bikes, but as you might know driving in the UK has its specific uniqueness. All of them gave invaluable feedback on what I need to be doing for the scenarios that don't have a counterpart across the pond. In addition, they would offer anything that would help me be a better rider overall. Their ability to translate attention to the individual was excellent. As such, I passed all the way through. I cannot thank them enough. If they can teach a dumb American to safely ride on UK roads then they can help anyone do the same. I highly, highly recommend you give them a call if you think motorcycling is for you or if like me you just need to get back to two wheeled life. Stay safe out there and keep the rubber side down.
Fantastic experience: A big thank you too Chris and adrian. Passed my full bike test with them. Great guys and very professional in there work. Would highly recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys and see you on the road. Dont think twice book motoxp.
Fantastic experience: Had a great week learning to ride bigger bikes with Chris and Adrian, resulting in me getting my full license. The emphasis of the training was on learning to ride a bike rather than doing the minimum to pass a couple of tests and I am grateful for that. I would highly recommend using MotoXP if you're looking for bike tuition.
Fantastic experience: Moto XP stepped in and fitted my son in for his CBT training at short notice (after a different company cancelled his training on the day it was due to take place). As my son relies on his scooter for commuting to work, Moto XP really helped us out. A company that really care about their trainees - thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: Adrian and Chris have made me a safe and legal rider and as a product of that I've passed module 1 and 2 at the first attempt. I did CBT and DAS in 4 days spread over 3 weeks so it fitted around work. Learning in well maintained bikes was a pleasure! All the great instructions, tips and training were of the highest standards even for a slow learner like me. I've liked their patient and well experienced approach that made me feel at ease on a big bike. Will highly recommend motoXP for any person thinking of doing any motorbike licence or just even their CBT!!
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with Adrian and Chris, both have been really helpful and are really great instructors.
Fantastic experience: CBT & Direct Access with Chris and Adrian. Highly skilled and professional trainers.They have a genuine passion for their business and will teach you all the skills you will need to meet the challenge, succeed and ride safely. Adrian adapted the on road training when I needed to focus on certain aspects, which enabled me to achieve the required standard. I really enjoyed the experience, their honesty, motivation and good humour. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: My son did his CBT test here and he said they were very friendly and made him feel at ease. Highly recommend this place to anyone who's thinking or interested on doing their CBT test.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant training here from Chris and Adrian. Really professional and friendly. Nice early mornings so had the afternoons free. Thanks to Chris I passed my DAS and steadily improved my control of the bike (and the road) over the four days. Can't fault the service and feel much more confident on the road. Really glad I went with these guys and avoided other schools advertising just 2 day training. Can't wait to pick up a big bike now and head off. Best to take a flask of coffee and some snacks as there's time for chats between exercises. Again, thanks Chris!
Fantastic experience: Had the best experience with Moto Xp. Adrian and Chris are the best at what they do. Incredibly professional, great communication and an all round excellent service. I did the direct access course, took two days training and did both my tests on the third day. Passed first time with only 3 minors all thanks to Adrian. Cheers guys
Fantastic experience: 4 Days of great training, followed by a pass in Mod 1&2. Adrian and Chris were both excellent instructors
Fantastic experience: Amazing teaching and instruction. Very patient. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Cool instructor.
Fantastic experience: Chris the instructor not only taught us the CBT essentials but also showed us how to properly control the motorbike - which is invaluable for gaining confidence.
Fantastic experience: Just had my CBT done today at 8am with Mark and was really nice i teach with every details and shows you right ways to drive a motorbike... Moto XP you guys are the best
Fantastic experience: Did training with Adrian and Chris, they made this experience very enjoyable whilst being informative. They want to get to know and understand how best to teach you what's required not just to pass the test but also to ride safely. On test day I felt fully prepared and eager to get on with it. Bikes are well used as you'd expect but are well maintained and ride smooth and strong. Definitely suggest if you're unsure and have questions just give them a call and have a chat
Fantastic experience: Bike training with Moto XP will bring you joy. This is possibly the best license I have ever acquired. Once you have provided the purfect ride for your examination you are free.. winter time is the best time to learn ready fro the summer.. Book the theory test early guys this could slow you down if your a genius like me.
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with Adrian who did a brilliant job guiding me through the whole process of my direct access tests. passing first time on both. Solid choice if you want to get your license sorted. Very professional. Well worth it!
Fantastic experience: Adrian is a very good instructor and thanks to his training I passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 at the first attempt. I live in Bristol and it was worth the drive to Bath to train with MotoXP and I’ll be booking an advanced training session with them
Fantastic experience: Passed my CBT with these guys 2 years ago so decided to do my DAS with them as well.Passed it at the first attempt.Adrian and Chris explain everything really well and feel you with confidence in what you need to do.I would thoroughly recommend these guys for any motorbike course you want to take.Good teachers and also made it fun and enjoyable.
Fantastic experience: DIRECT ACCESS FOR A COMPLETE BEGINNER My direct access course finished yesterday. It lasted from Saturday morning until Tuesday morning with approximately 4-5 hours riding a day. My first 2 days were with Adrian and then my last 2 days were with Chris. Given that I had never touched a geared bike before I was unsure about how quickly I would be able to learn to control the 600cc bike and given that my test was booked for Tuesday morning I was nervous and felt under pressure to get the hang of it quickly. Adrian provided great training and a calming influence and I learned to ride the bike comfortably within an hour or so. A couple of days of practicing figure of 8s, u-turns and slow rides meant that I was preparing well for the module 1 test. As the days progressed I became more and more comfortable on the bike and started to have to think less about how to operate the gears and more about the riding. On Tuesday morning I sat my module 1 test and passed without any nerves or difficulty - my only fault being 1km per hour under the desired speed for the hazard avoidance...no doubt compensating for the 7km over the desired speed for the emergency stop exercise previously! after a 30 minute wait I undertook my module 2 exam. The ride was comfortable and I felt in control of everything. The examiner was great at putting my nerves to rest so that he could assess my riding. Unfortunately I did not pass this time but I can confidently say without hesitation that it had nothing to do with my training, it was a rider error and I knew the mistake the second I made it. My unfamiliarity with the area meant that I crossed a badly marked lane on a large roundabout and affected another road user (instant fail). Apart from that mistake which was 5 minutes before the end, I only had 4 minor faults which goes to show the level of training that Adrian and Chris provide - they took a person who had never ride a bike before to getting 4 minor faults - only let down by a major fault caused solely by myself. Whilst I would have loved to be able to say that I went from never having riden a geared bike until Saturday and passed my full bike test on Tuesday morning I am not able to do so. What I am able to do is say unreservedly that the training and guidance you get at Moto XP is exceptional and that had I not made that mistake on that last roundabout, I would have passed. I have my retake booked for 4 weeks time and in the meantime I will get to know the Bristol ring road roundabouts much better! Credit to Adrian and Chris for their patience, expertise and training. I highly recommend this bike school. ........as an update to the above review I wrote a few weeks ago, with no further training, I have just passed my test with 1 rider fault which was that the examiner would have preferred to see me brake earlier before bends.
Fantastic experience: To anyone looking to take their motorbike test, I would highly recommend Motoxp. As from my experience ( having not rode a bike for 45 years ) I was made to feel at ease and confident with riding once again. I did not pass my test the first time around, however the team at MotoXP were very patient with me and today I am proud to say that I have now passed my full Motorbike license. And I would like to say a special thank you to Adi and Chris for making my dream come true. Im a 67 year old rider and I owe it to those two men at MotoXP ! My dream is to one day ride Route 66 on a Harley Davidson, hopefully next year I will get the opportunity to do it. Im a proud owner of a Harley, so if anyone is looking to take their test, defiantly go with MotoXP !! Thank you Adi and Chris , I know you'll miss me. Alan Ayliffe
Fantastic experience: Passed CBT in May and DAS Mod 1 & 2 in Aug. Can't rate Chris and Adrian high enough from initial contact all the way through to the facilities, bikes and quality of teaching plus the pricing is fantastic for all that you get. Review wouldn't change even if I'd failed any part because they are genuinely a top notch operation and it would have been down to me so thanks Adrian & Chris!
Fantastic experience: Completed the DAS course with Moto XP today with a first time Mod 2 pass. All thanks to the training, guidance and advice from Adrian and Chris. Top blokes with plenty of patience, a sense of humour combined with a serious side when it comes to safe riding. Plenty of time was also made available for practicing the areas I struggled with at first. Looking forward to some advanced tuition with MotoXP soon!
