Fantastic experience: The whole team at bike train wales are top notch including the lovely well mannered chatty receptionist . I most recently past my DAS test and before that my CBT course with BTW ( bike train wales ) their tuition is second to none they are very clear with there vast knowledge and real life experiences teaching and will guide you correctly and confidently through every single process of the training you'll need to be successful with a cuppa and a cheeky biscuit on the side . Nothing is a problem or a task as i was told one of the instructors lent his own gear to help a student on his test because of a kit malfunction which says it all doesnt it .. This was something i wished i done years ago but am happy i done it through bike train wales ( BTW ) Thank you bike wales keep doing what your doing showing us how great riding bikes are .

Fantastic experience: Biketrain Wales are clearly the best motorcycle school in the area. Full size class room with knowledgeable friendly instructors. Has proper facilities with running water and a large training yard with a safe grippy surface. My instructor could clearly see I was nervous and followed behind on my test, my test felt like a group ride with the boys. Thank you to all at Bike Train wales for helping me pass my test

Teresa Crane 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: I want to thank the guys at Biketrain Wales (Jim and Kris) for getting me through the CBT. The day was not kind in respect of the weather (the rain just didnt stop!) and my nerves were shot before even beginning! - they really had their work cut out with me! They were so very patient and offered a huge amount of support and guidance to help me make the right decisions throughout the day. The knowledge they shared was immense and they imparted it with ease - they really are expert in their field - I thoroughly enjoyed listening and learning. It is a true testiment of 'their' people skills to be able to keep me grounded and focused (I am a 52 year old female with no prior riding experience, suffering menopausal brain and a serious deficit in emotional control!). They did so well in training me I can't thank them enough!!! So very grateful T Crane

Fantastic experience: I've trained and passed my CBT, MOD 1 and MOD2 this year through Biketrain Wales. They're professional and know their stuff! You know they want you to pass when the instructor gets as excited as you do when you're told you've passed your MOD 2! Big thanks to both Julians and Simon for their time and knowledge I highly recommend this company and if you're thinking about booking. Do it, you will not regret it!

Fantastic experience: I'd like to thank the team at Biketrain Wales for getting someone like myself a complete novice to the biking world up and running with my CBT at the beginning of August to passing my mod 2 by early November. I had a number of different instructors across my training days all very knowledgeable, friendly and straight to the point.

Cam Wallace 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Just did my CBT and had an absolutely brilliant time. Simon and Julian were absolutely amazing instructors and were really helpful and well-paced with me despite some of my early shortcomings in the day. Genuinely loved my experience and learnt in such a great way and i couldn’t recommend a better place to jump into motorcycling and doing your CBT. Thank you for everything!

Jacqui Kedward 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: As a woman of 50+ I can vouch for Biketrain Wales. I had never driven a motorbike in my life and they took me through the New Rider Course and CBT. The two instructors I had (Simon & Julian) were clear and patient. They supported my wobbles and gave me the confidence I needed. I am so glad I followed the recommendation and had the New Rider 1:1 lessons before the CBT. I would have struggled if I hadn’t. The set up is easy to find and met the needs of the training. Highly recommend and will be returning once I am ready for my full bike license.

Sam Haslett 1 year ago

eva cook 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Biketrain Wales is absolutely fantastic. As a very short, completely novice, middle-aged lady they couldn't have been more supportive, patient, accommodating, understanding and sooo helpful. They really couldn't have done more to help me feel welcome, increase my confidence and riding skills right from my CBT though to today where I passed my Mod2! They have a couple of lowered bikes which have been great. The last leg of my training was tricky for me, and a few mistakes were made but the team stayed by my side and believed in me, and it paid off. The whole team are great, and I would like to say thank you to Jim and Laura for being so understanding. And a huge very special thank you to Julian, who has been there by my side the whole way. So If you have a choice of which training place you go to, make it Biketrain Wales. I cannot praise them enough! I look forward to seeing you when Im next in the area on my bike!/ Eva

Cannot recommend them enough. Thank you.

Dan Davies 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had a thoroughly enjoyable day at Biketrain Wales today, being instructed by Julian and Sarah. It was my third time doing CBT. Whilst my other experiences have been fine they sometimes felt like a formality, whereas with Biketrain Wales, there was very much an emphasis on safe riding, the CBT didn’t feel like a foregone conclusion. We were a mixed ability/experience group of 4 and the instructors took time to ensure that nobody was left behind and that everybody was ready and comfortable to progress to the next stage. By the time the road ride came around we were well prepared and it felt like a pleasant ride out, whilst still maintaining the emphasis on safety and competency. All of us passed, and all of us enjoyed it!

Thomas Drewett 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I received CBT training with Mark & Sarah August 2022 and returned June 2023 for Direct Access training and subsequent Module 1 Pass with Julian. On both occasions the instructors were clear in their instructions and advice and the experience was enjoyable and informative. I am a safer rider for it, and look forward to completing the journey with Biketrain Wales. Thanks team.

Fantastic experience: Just had NEW RIDER TRAINING at Biketrain Wales. Tremendous one to one training with an exceptional instructor called Mark. This course is great to get your confidence riding a motorbike before you take your CBT course. Friendly, very professional instructor, really puts you at ease . Makes the course really enjoyable. I recommend NRT before you take your CBT, you wont regret it. Thanks Mark for an enjoyable experience

Arwyn Jones 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: As I reflect upon my recent experience with Biketrain Wales Cwmbran, I am left with nothing but gratitude and admiration. My heartfelt thanks go out to Julian and Mark for their exceptional guidance and support throughout my journey to get my full A licence. Their dedication to their craft is truly inspiring, and it was this unwavering commitment that allowed me to make it past the finish line. They didn't merely teach me how to pass the exam; they instilled in me a deep understanding and appreciation for the open road and the bike that takes us there. I can honestly say that I would not have been able to achieve this feat without their fantastic tutoring. I'd also like to extend my gratitude to the entire team at Biketrain. They've created an atmosphere that's conducive to learning, supportive, and welcoming, making the entire process as enjoyable as it was enriching. So to all of you at Biketrain - a massive thank you! Once again, thank you Julian, Mark, and everyone at Biketrain. My journey with you was one I'll remember fondly, and I am beyond grateful for all you've done. Here's to many more journeys together on the open road! Thanks again, Arwyn

Steve Thomas 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Completed my CBT today 04/23. We met Jim on arrival who took us through the first phase. He was a great guy who had lots of patience and was really helpful and thorough throughout the course. Sarah then joined us a little later on who again was brilliant and helped us as much as possible. Once the on site training was finished, Sarah followed us out on the road. She communicated with us at all times which was really helpful and although I felt a little nervous this really did help. We stopped along the route several times where she gave us further guidance where we was going wrong. Both instructors were amazing and I’ll definitely be going back to complete my bigger bike training with them.

Luke Shephard 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My brother and I have recently done our full licences through Bike Train Wales. The entire service was absolutely faultless from start to finish. We had the pleasure of dealing with Jess for all admin and bookings and Jess couldn't do enough for us. As my brother and I were doing it together, Jess went through every effort to ensure our training and tests were done together, too. Thanks to the amazing instructors, we both passed MOD 1 first time. Although our MOD 2 tests were cancelled due to the snow, Jess found replacement slots for us both straight away and, again thanks to the awesome instructors, we both passed the MOD 2 first time as well. The whole team went above and beyond to ensure the best experience during our time with Bike Train Wales. I'd like to extend an extra special thanks to Jess. She's absolutely amazing at her job and her time and efforts for every customer is very much appreciated. Thank you all very, very much.

Fantastic experience: Honestly one of the most pleasant experiences I’ve had, even though I came in with some experience thinking I knew everything I needed to, I had a little wake up call. If anyone is ever in any doubt, I would highly recommend going with this group, two fantastic trainers who couldn’t have helped the group of 4 they had on the day anymore if they tried. Many thanks guys.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience, friendly instructors and great training. Completed CBT and Direct access course all in less than 6 months. All of the Instructors I met could not have been more helpful, no question is too silly, and always take the time to explain everything in depth with great clarity. Leading to me passing all tests first time! If they can get me to pass then anyone can. Even the office handling bookings and enquiries were kind and caring, taking time to have a conversation and show a genuine interest in your test and progress. John, Jim and everyone else at Bike Train Wales, thank you so much for everything you’ve done and making something that seems so stressful a genuinely enjoyable experience!

Lisa Golding 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Its been 9 years since undertaking my last CBT, so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. The team at Bike Train Wales made the booking process stress free, Jess very kindly accommodated my specific request for a small twist and go so my feet could reach the ground! I was emailed full joining instructions of what to bring, reminded to refresh myself on the Highway Code and I had contact by way of text message with Jess for any queries leading up to the day. The CBT training itself was great, a full on day’s mix of classroom teaching, training ground practice and road riding learning with audio feedback from the instructor, the trainers were engaging, friendly, patient and safety first all the way. I highly recommend Biketrain Wales, thankfully with their patience and training, they rebuilt my confidence on a bike and I was signed off road safe and ready with my CBT certificate issued that same day.

Richie Inson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: After years of wanting to gain a full motorbike licence, I contacted Bike Train Wales (Cwmbran) in order to do my CBT back in the summer of 2021 to which I completed CBT in Sept 2021. Due to how well the instructors were during the CBT and the training and bikes provided. I continued to progress on to Direct Access (DAS). To which Julian (instructor) provided me with all the knowledge and know how not just to pass the test but how to become a safer and more confident rider and I gained first time passes on both MOD 1 and MOD 2 of the DAS. I 110% recommend all at Bike Train Wales. The office staff were always helpful and clear of what was needed and all the instructors were easy to get along with and brilliant with all aspects of training. I’d like to say a massive thank you on all the support this last 12 months. Ride safe all. Richie

Negative experience: If you know how to ride they're great. However, instead of being patient with the geared bikes they pressure you to go on an automatic. The instructors are lovley. However, it wasn't the best experience. They alse said they'd contact me when I could book again and I've had no communication from them. However, I have now passed my cbt somewhere else, on a geared bike and I'm enjoying riding.

Biketrain Wales
Biketrain Wales

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, it’s always useful to hear feedback. I am sorry you felt pressured onto an automatic bike. Learning to ride a motorcycle needs several new skills to be learnt at the same time and many people progress better learning the basics on an automatic, before moving to a geared bike. For some, passing a CBT on an auto and then taking a gear conversion course may be the quickest, cheapest and importantly, safest route. If a customer wishes to stay on an manual, and understands the resulting additional time and cost, we usually are happy to facilitate that. If we see that the customer is not safe on an automatic and may injury themselves or others, we do insist on a move to an auto until basic control and safety is achieved. I am sorry that you were told that we would contact you – that was mistake for which I apologise. We invariably ask customers to call us when it is convenient for them. I’m pleased you now have past your CBT and I’m glad you are enjoying your riding. Please feel free to contact me if you want to discuss anything further. Jim

Positive experience: new riders most likely be rushed and told to hurry as ‘short on time’ and be encouraged to use an automatic instead of being given enough time to get used to a geared bike would still recommend as some nice instructors some were easily frustrated and impatient with new riders

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, it’s always useful to hear feedback. I agree with your comment that new riders should not be rushed, nor told to hurry. I am unable to confirm which course you attended from this review, so I can’t comment directly what happened, but am sorry if this was the case. There is however a time constraint for those (the majority) who are keen to achieve a CBT certificate in a single day. This should have been explained to you. Usually we will give the customer the choice whether to stay on a manual and so require further time and training or move to an auto. Only if we are concerned for safety do we insist on the move to an auto (as a stepping stone to return to a manual in the future if desired). I am sorry if one of our instructors was or appeared frustrated with you; clearly this isn’t how we should behave. Our feedback shows this is not something we make a habit of, but I can only apologise if this happened. Please feel free to contact me if you want to discuss anything further. Jim

Fantastic experience: Had a great day completing my CBT, trainers were fab, friendly, very clear with instructions and giving information. I attended from Bristol because of waiting times, so glad I did, would 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Wasn't the most confident going into it but the instructors were outstanding. Clear instructions throughout the day and they've got a real passion for wanting people to learn and learn safely. Can't fault them and I would recommend them to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Had a refresher course at biketrain yesterday. Julian was superb, gave me confidence and was excellent giving instructions. The ride out that completed the session was so enjoyable. Am planning to move on to an advanced course soon. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Both instructors were extremely professional, knowledgeable and approachable, they identified each candidates’ weaknesses and tailored the training to suit. The course requirements were completed in full including a substantial practice session riding on public roads insuring the training was practiced in real traffic situations.

Fantastic experience: Recently completed CBT with Biketrain Wales. The day was very enjoyable and both our instructors Mark & Rhys were friendly, approachable and patient. The ride out on the roads at the end of the day was great and I was made to feel safe and confident through out. Thank you for a brilliant day, and I look forward to returning in the near future to complete my full bike license training with you.
