Roadrider Motorcycle Training (Formally behind Earnshaws, Manchester Rd): Reviews
Fantastic experience: Today I did my CBT test with Gary, everything was really good. Thanks Recommend Roadrider for anyone !
Fantastic experience: Did my cbt yesterday with Gary he is an amazing bloke makes you feel relaxed right from the start excellent day full of laughter but serious at the same time would highly recommend roadrider to anyone looking to start the journey on 2 wheels. Thank you Gary look forward to see you again when I go for my full licence
Fantastic experience: My second visit to use the services of these guys, even if it’s 25 years apart! Great guys put you at ease and really do know there stuff. Top notch see you soon for my full license
Fantastic experience: Went in today with zero prior experience with motorcycling outside of a bicycle - everyone was accommodating and my instructor Gary was very thorough with his explanations of how to do what. I got a bit cocky and he showed me how it could affect other drivers/riders. Very thorough yet kind instructor - will definitely go again for my full license training.
Fantastic experience: Passed my MOD1 and MOD2 with RoadRider. Jason is extremely chilled out/relaxed and a brilliant instructor for someone who is learning something completely new. Would recommend.
Fantastic experience: Just Passed my Das Mod 1 and Mod 2 with Roadrider. Bazz is a great instructor who is extremely professional and also such a great guy to get along with. If you want to do your motorcycle training, then trust me, this is the perfect place to learn. Very competitive pricing. All the bikes are brand new, perfect to learn and pass your bike tests on. Thanks guys Jason
Fantastic experience: Without a doubt an incredible place. Knowledgable teachers and great mannerisms. Having passed my full bike licence this morning I’m quite sad that I won’t be having lessons again now. Would recommend without hesitation to anyone wanting to learn from CBT to full Licence. For info of anyone planning to do it… I’m 32 and did CBT about a year ago and went into lessons. An injury kept me away for 6 months but other than that I went from zero to hero with this place.
Fantastic experience: As other reviews state, you are taught how to ride safely and confidently and not just how to pass which should not be overlooked when searching for somewhere to learn, relaxed lessons with some lovely areas to ride through along the way, quality lads, it's what a training school is all about, highly recommend to anyone looking to learn, cheers Jason & Garry.
Fantastic experience: Did cbt today with Gary absolute brilliant day I haven't been on the road since a bad crash 28 years ago now on to more training with Jason would recommend
Fantastic experience: Gary’s teaching ability is top notch. He clearly cares for your best and makes you feel comfortable on the road. I highly recommend Roadrider.
Fantastic experience: Jason was recommended as a bike trainer by several family and friends who had successfully completed their training with him. While the CBT is done by someone else, as soon as you have completed it and are ready to train with Jason he is the best! My confidence has taken a lot of time to build and Jason remained patient and continued to encourage me. I was nervous to go from 125 to 600 but Jason made sure I had the time and was ready. My training took a while but I didn't feel rushed and as a result when I passed my Mod 2 I felt ready for the road. Jason teaches you to be a safe rider not to pass a test. He is great at tailoring training to each person and making sure they get the practice in areas they need.
Fantastic experience: Never felt like I was being taught to pass a test, was taught how to ride with confidence and for myself, 5* worth every penny, thanks Jason.
Positive experience: Hi he is a good cbt person tells you what is it about and stuff I would recommend him to anyone help you out of your struggling I am buzzing I passed he is a top lad I would recommend to anyone who wants to learn go for it
Fantastic experience: Top notch teaching from Jason. He teaches you how to safely and confidently ride a bike, not just pass the tests. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Great day of training. Jason was great, helpful and very informative. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend, To be honest it took me a while and I’m sure I could have had a crash course else where and passed sooner. But (and it’s a big but) Jason taugh me and a friend how to ride safely and confidently on todays roads. He didn’t focus on passing the test but teaching us how to ride and stay alive. On passing my test I went out the following day, bought a bike and felt safe and confident. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else
Fantastic experience: Jason and Gary are great instructors. They helped me through my CBT and category A licence. Very professional and friendly, would recommend.
Fantastic experience: Exactly What i wanted out out of a training school, nothing was rushed and Jason is very patient, always giving pointers and tips where to improve. Cant recommend Road Rider enough, stop reading this and book a lesson !!
Fantastic experience: Passed my mod 2 today with flying colours! Chuffed to bits! Jason is a fantastic instructor and makes sure you're prepared for any situation! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Used road rider all the way from CBT up until today when I passed with a perfect test( no rider faults) this is all down to the guys at road rider thankyou Jason top instructor
Fantastic experience: Recently took my cbt there my instructor made it educational and fun at the same time would recommend to anyone looking to take cbt
Fantastic experience: Excellent top bloke (tutor) calm and relaxed environment was a really good day and I passed thank you road rider
Fantastic experience: Great day out with Jason. Enjoyed our ride out to Rotherham and back .Blowing the cob webs off after 30 yrs
Fantastic experience: Thankyou to Roadrider. They have been brilliant through and through. I have spent a lot of time on lessons with Jason and he hasn't once made me feel nervous if anything the complete opposite. He made the lessons fun, entertaining, funny and most importantly very easy to learn. If I could, I would give Roadrider infinite amount of stars. Thanks again, Eddie.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic service from Gary. He was very funny from the word go which made the whole day lots of fun for myself and the other rider. I was nervous after 20 years of not riding and after a bad smash.I felt at ease by end of day and confident to get out on road again. I would recommend them for CBT and full test
Fantastic experience: Very friendly guys, done my CBT with Gary and he's so patient, would recommend
Fantastic experience: First of all, job done. Full license. However it’s not just about that. It’s the fact that both Gary and Jason are very good teachers. They are patient and they know what to do and say in literally all the different situations I’ve found myself as a learner. I felt welcomed, never have I been made to feel awkward for a mistake or for anything else that went wrong. I’m very appreciative for it all, thank you Jason! Alex
Fantastic experience: Fabulous service, quality training from CBT to full licence. Patient trainers got this nervous, self critical, novice rider through it all without ever making me feel like I couldn't do it. Training was bespoke to your needs to achieve the desired outcome. Would recommend to anyone without hesitation. Actually going to miss seeing them ;)
Fantastic experience: Road rider has taken me from having no experience riding a motorcycle, all the way to completing my direct access scheme. I completed my CBT with Gary and then proceeded with Jason on my DAS lessons. I passed my module 1 and module 2 on the first attempt. Every lesson I’ve had has always been enjoyable and a fun experience, even when the weather wasn’t the best but unfortunately that’s out of their control! The team at road rider are very knowledgeable and are good at pointing out where you need to improve which makes you become a safer rider. It has also been good to meet new people with a passion for motorcycles. Absolute 10/10 from me, keep up the good work!
Fantastic experience: A great place to get your bike licence. Thanks Jason for teaching me some valuable skills.
Fantastic experience: Excellent training from start to finish! I completed my CBT with Gary and passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 first time with Jason with only one minor on the latter. This just goes to show the standard of tuition on offer at Road-rider. They are always up for a laugh as well which makes learning so much more enjoyable. If your thinking of completing motorcycle training I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys :)
Fantastic experience: Jason's a good trainer, he gave constant advice and feedback when we were out on the roads, taking me through both my MOD1 and MOD2, passing both first time :)
Fantastic experience: Brilliant training school. Such a brilliant team. Taken me from cbt to full licence. Couldn't rate Jason and his team highly enough. Great support and tips all the way through. The only place to go for training.
Fantastic experience: The best people to do your training with 100% thanks guys
Fantastic experience: Really friendly people and honestly couldn't fault the guy who did my CBT renewal, will be using them for the modules
Fantastic experience: Fantastic customer service from Jason amazing training for my mod 1 and mod2 highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend road rider to anyone! They not only teach you how to ride and pass your test, they teach you extra little skills you need for after you've passed as well. Highly recommended best riding school in Huddersfield hands down/best riding school in all of West Yorkshire
Fantastic experience: Used Road Rider to do my CBT just before the first lockdown, training was great and felt very at ease. Booked my lessons which, due to lockdown restrictions was not until 2021. Jason is great, his way of teaching is the best very relaxed, he misses nothing when riding behind you, therefore is always able to correct you with the best advice, especially cutting roundabouts..... Did not take many lessons to get to both Mod 1 and Mod 2 standard, passing both first time. Will highly recommend. Cheers Jason
Fantastic experience: Done CBT today. Very easy and informative. Will be booking das imminently.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing team there, went into my Cbt nervous and shaky but after about 5 minutes into the day the friendliness and the calm environment was perfect for the amazing day ahead, thank you to everyone at roadrider for helping me to achieve my overall goal in completing my CBT.
Fantastic experience: Started with Gary doing cbt, then moved over to jason on the 600cc lessons. Had 5 lessons in total. Put in for both mod 1 and mod 2 both this morning and passed with flying colours. Jason has a very good way of teaching which is very rare in a motor vehicle. Would highly recommend road rider to anyone! I’ll always remember the comment ‘check your shoulder incase a nob head in a taxi is there’ which is almost certainly the case! Great guys, great personality’s and a great company! Thanks again boys
Fantastic experience: Really great guys, made my CBT clear and easy and definitely recommend to anyone looking to do their tests!
Fantastic experience: Done my cbt mod 1 and mod 2 at road rider with jason, fantastic guy, really friendly making the experience and training alot more enjoyable, very professional knows his stuff, and doesnt take him long to get you up to a safe riding level ready for your test. If I for some reason had to do it all again I wouldnt hesitate to go back here
Fantastic experience: excellent top notch training, highly recommended... friendly instructors who you can have a laugh with whilst you learn making it an enjoyable experience...
Fantastic experience: Two great lads at road rider very good training just done c b t today with Gary
Fantastic experience: From never riding a motorbike to fully passed in only a handful of lessons (despite the terrible weather on the day of my MOD 2!). Both guys at Roadrider are great and were honest with me at every stage and encouraged me to book my tests when they thought I was ready rather than pushing me to keep taking lessons needlessly. Jason even took me across to do the MOD 2 in his van (bike in the back due to the terrible weather) on a day that he had booked as holiday! Would definitely recommend them and have already got my friends to sign up for their CBT
Fantastic experience: Contacted Jason at Road Riders one evening after having a bad experience at another riding school, From word go I could sense that he was passionate about what he does, Which reflected in his teaching style. I found it very easy to learn from him and after a few traing lessons booked my Mod1 & Mod2 tests to take on the same day, Which I passed, And its all thanks to Jasons experience and vast knowledge at how to take a complete novice and turn you into Safe and compitant rider... If you really want to learn to Ride By someone that really wants to teach (and not just take your money) then give him a shout.... Thanks again... Ps, You still owe me that coffee..... lol
Fantastic experience: Did my full licence with these guys, absolutely brilliant from start to finish! Knowledgeable, funny, such a relaxed environment which made me feel at ease throughout the training. I will be down soon to buy you a coffee, cheers guys
Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience! I had a bad experience elsewhere so was really nervous. Gary made me feel relaxed, and was very patient with me as a complete beginner. I became disheartened while struggling with manouvers, but he explained all steps carefully, and I was very confident by the time I got on the road. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, very friendly. Would 100% recommend!!
Fantastic experience: Great learning experience, the trainer Garry was a top lad who managed to create a relaxed and friendly atmosphere to learn bike riding. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of doing their CBT tests!
Fantastic experience: I just spent the day with Gary doing my CBT, haven't rode a motorbike in my life and was very nervous when I arrived, Gary from the go was a star, lovely funny bloke but I learned so much in such a short space of time, loved every second of it, can't say thanks enough for all the great help and making me feel so comfortable. Cheers
Fantastic experience: Did a back to biking refresher today. Gary is a great instructor, really knowledgeable and approachable.
Fantastic experience: Both myself and my husband recently done our CBT with these guys after recommendations. Felt i learnt alot in one day and feel able to purchase and ride a scooter. Thank you
Fantastic experience: So just spent the day with Gary doing my CBT, haven't rode a motorbike for over 20 years and was quite nervous when I arrived, Gary from the go was a star, lovely funny bloke but I learned so much in such a short space of time, loved every second of it and I will be back with you guys soon to do my bike test, can't say thanks enough Cheers
Negative experience: SHOCKING My experience echos the other ladies that have posted a review. From unsuitable bikes, to the patronising sexist instructor who thinks it's acceptable to be on Facebook whilst he's supposed to be teaching you about road safety . If you are a woman you don't stand a chance, they set you up to fail to get more money out of you. Wouldn't even give them one star. Completed my cbt with Dc's who were fantastic.
Fantastic experience: Did CBT with these guys 1 year ago and really enjoyed, instructor was friendly and understanding and got offered a 2nd day after weather got bad and will be going back to them in a month or so for an A2 licence, highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I am doing my cbt I am very happy
Negative experience: Really bad experience. Ended up paying £600 including cbt and 4 lessons, was not put on a big bike in the car park for more than 20 mins in total of all those lessons. Made me ride a 125 on another person's CBT, another mod 1 test unnecessarily. Made me ride a 125 for all 4 lessons. 1 lesson was with the sexist joker who keeps making jokes on sex and women which are not hilarious at all and frankly, quite offensive. On telling the instructor about how disappointed I was for not getting my moneys worth, I was told off. Instead of teaching bike handling in a car park, they give you a 125 to ride on the road forever. They are nice people, but my pockets are empty, I have learned peanuts and they are the only ones happy about it. I changed schools. Writing this so no one else goes through the same.
Fantastic experience: Very good training, John helped build my confidence throughout the day and was very patient. Couldn't recommend him enough. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I have been twice over the last 4 years and had a great experience with them. Great instructors and friendly atmosphere helps when learning. Thanx guys...
Fantastic experience: Fantastic friendly service, great instructors. Couldnt ask for more, would definitely recommend
Negative experience: I usually never like to give bad reviews but this one i just couldn't leave alone. I went to do a CBT bike course. I'm a complete novice so i were nervous enough. But to be honest I was made to feel like an idiot because I was struggling to do what was required. Plus i was given a bike too heavy for me. But the worst thing was that I was subjected to sexism by comments made by one of the trainers who said things like "women drivers" and "im over 50 so im allowed to be sexist and racist" He made me feel bad seen as all the others doing the course were males. I felt so humiliated I didnt want to finish the course. The only shining light of this place was a guy called john who were patient and at the least helpful. If it wasnt for john id have rated it no stars if i could.
Fantastic experience: its safety first with these guys. good friendly tuition in a relaxed atmosphere. cant recommend enough.
