Ace Motorcycle Training

Fantastic experience: Highly Recommended. Massive thank you to Fiona, Tony and Derek for taking me from zero to hero with a full CAT A licence. Their patience & huge amount of flexibility has been greatly appreciated. The training really focuses on staying safe & they push you to be the best that you can be! It was a super steep learning curve for me & one I will never forget!

Fantastic experience: I recently passed my Mod 1 and Mod 2 with Ace Motorcycle Training.Massive thanks to Derek , a very knowledgeable and experienced rider who kept us at ease while guiding us through the training.Top Man ! Would also like to thank Tony and Fiona for my previous CBT Training and looking after me at the beginning of my journey, Can’t recommend Ace Motorcycles enough

Fantastic experience: I had an exceptional experience training with Ace. After a negative encounter with another school, they were incredibly accommodating and took me on, helping me secure both a training and test date for my Mod 2 in no time. Derek, hands down, is one of the best instructors I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Having trained with several others before, he stood out for his thoroughness and expertise. Despite facing a rather grumpy examiner, I passed on my first attempt, thanks to Derek's excellent guidance. I can't recommend this school highly enough – they truly go above and beyond!

Positive experience: I passed my Mod 1 and Mod 2 with ACE, and I'd recommend their training for your Mod 2. If you're lucky enough to get Derek, he's an exceptional instructor who really cares about his students (he only teaches the Mod 2 training days). Come my test day it had been a while since I rode, and while the other student was out doing his test Derek could see I was visibly nervous and took out some of his own time to practice with me a bit more before the test (this was in freezing morning weather too). Derek is a great teacher, and, as I said, I feel like he does genuinely care, and knows how to teach. Don't bother with Ace if you're trying to pass your Mod 1, unless you already have significant experience. The training takes place in a children's playground, it's very short, and there's not enough room in the space to reach the speed for many of the fast manoeuvres the Mod 1 requires. And for some reason they only teach the hazard avoidance on one side. Fiona is a nice lady and person, but as an instructor I didn't feel she added much value. Tony brushes over the teaching, and I don't feel he really gave a crap if I passed or not. That said, he does listen if you try and ask him something. I needed a bit more guidance on my manual handling, and he took the time out to show me. Again, outside of being an instructor, and when you get talking to him over a coffee he's a really nice bloke. I'd still recommend Ace if you're going for your Mod 2.

Fantastic experience: Fiona and Tony both provided great training! I've heard great things about Derick too (just wasn't trained by him during the 4 days). They made learning how to ride and control a larger bike really easy to understand, and not at all rude or 'angry' about telling you how to improve (like I've experienced previously). They both kept a really relaxed attitude, taught clearly, cracked jokes, and made learning fun - really helping keeping nerves at bay in the process. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to do their CBT/DAS course
