Fantastic experience: Shires instructors have been absolutely fantastic getting me through training and my CBT the last few weeks and I could not be more appreciative of them all. Matt, Chris and John have the patience of saints as I was a very nervous older first timer who needed a fair bit of one on one. I would recommend these guys to anyone - regardless of your experience as they are just amazing! ⭐️

Fantastic experience: Marvellous Matt!!! As a woman in her 40s who was very nervous and anxious, Matt worked wonders and supported me passing my Mod 1 and Mod 2 first time. Customer service and support throughout was exceptional. Matt has a wealth of experience, tips tricks and a calming manner which helped put me at ease. Bloody marvellous instructor and I'll be back for enhanced lessons come spring. A truly heartfelt thank you for supporting me through this course. You guys are the best!

Their relaxed individual approach to each person was really beneficial and well managed as in some cases we were in groups of 3 or 4!

Fantastic experience: Shires came recommended to me by a friend. With zero motorcycle experience, a head full of hopes and dreams, and a mind full of nerves and self doubt - I completed the full DAS course with Shires. They demonstrated experience and knowledge, as well as patience, understanding and support. Having now passed my Mod 2 - I feel confident and comfortable in my ability to ride safely into the future. Massive thanks to the Shries team - particularly Chris and Matt for all of their support, wisdom and encouragement. Would absolutely recommend in a heartbeat to anyone else looking to gain confidence or the relevant licences.

Fantastic experience: Really good experience from beginning to end. All instructors were friendly and approachable with a lot of patience and acceptance for when natural mistakes occurred. Regular communication when it was required and facilitating all tests allowed for the pressure to be taken off. Utilising the test centre prior to MOD1 test was helpful to create the right expectation for when it mattered. Fabulous team and equipment certainly helped get me through the process and hope to come back for further training when appropriate.

David Mann 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I am a deaf person, but had a cochlear implant fitted last year, so I have regained some hearing ability. I have always wanted to get a full motorcycle licence, but my hearing problems always prevented this. I visited the training team in Peterborough to see what options were available to me. I was told they use helmet to helmet radio communications, but I was pretty sure this would not be suitable for me, so I asked if there was any way to do this via a telephone call as I can hear really well on the phone, as my Implant streams directly inside my head and this cuts out all external background noises. I was informed that this should be possible, so I went ahead and booked the full course. On starting the course we tried out this method, but was found to be unsuccsesfull, so my trainer (Chris, with the beard) went and found some new equiptment and this was totally succsesfull. Chris had a word with the examiner, and was informed they could not use this method on my test, as they had to use the equiptment supplied by the DVSA, this meant that I would need an extended test which would have made things very difficult. Chris the did some research online, and found out that the DVSA had to make provsions for disabilitys, so he was able to persuade the examiner to use the phone method. After that every thing went perfectly, and I passed everything first time. All of the Peterborough team probally went well beyond what was expected of them, I cant praise the Shires team enough.

Nina White 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely thrilled with my experience at Shires Motorcycle Training Centre, Peterborough. From start to finish, the professionalism and dedication of the instructors Matt, Chris 1 and Chris 2 were evident. They provided comprehensive, hands-on training that catered to all skill levels. As a beginner, I felt supported and encouraged every step of the way. The training was thorough, covering essential safety practices, bike handling, and road awareness. Each session was well-structured, ensuring I got plenty of practical experience. The bikes were well maintained and easy to ride. I used a Kawasaki X125 and Z650 for both CBT and DAS. The centre also offered flexible options, which made it easy to fit lessons in. It took a few attempts to pass but I never felt like a failure and was always given confidence and offered extra tuition as needed. I felt supported by all of the team. I highly recommend Shires to anyone looking to learn how to ride or improve their skills. It's a fantastic investment in your riding future!

Fantastic experience: I used Shires for the DAS course and would highly recommend this company. The level of instruction and equipment are excellent. I trained with several of the Instructors throughout the Mod 1 and Mod 2 elements. I found that particularly useful as each had a subtly different set of insights. They also made the training fun - despite it being quite intense at times. I learned loads. Not just about passing the test, but about motorcycling generally. They have a lot of passion for what they do and this translates into their outstanding tuition.

All the staff were friendly, helpful, really calm and patient when teaching in the classroom or out on the rides. I'm 5 foot tall and had put off going for my full licence for a long time as a bit wary of riding a big bike. But, if you're like me then go with these guys. They have lowered bikes and all the safety gear and access to the local test centre for mod 1 practice.

Fantastic experience: My journey to full licence started with a taster back in August 2022. I was returning to motorbikes from a youthful age of 17 to a more mature rider and having regretted not obtaining a full licence. Matt and Chris were brilliant steering me through CBT and Mod 1. Mod 2 proved trickier but eventually got there on 2nd Feb. I can fully recommend Shires whether new or in my case returning at a more advanced age ( no barrier!). Thanks again to all at Shires and now to buy a bike!

The way they teach is also quite laid back which makes it more fun rather than a chore. If you want your license this is the place to go.

Fantastic experience: Did my DAS course with Shires, from CBT to Mod 2. The training days were long but at a good pace. I think I had sessions with all the instructors, and each and every one was superb. Very friendly, knowledgeable and patient, making the process very enjoyable and productive. They don't just teach you how to ride, but how to do it safely and what to expect on the tests. I already felt like I had an upper hand, going into the tests, and I was proven right because I passed everything first time. Can't recommend them enough!

Fantastic experience: I completed my DAS course under the instuctions of Matt & Chris they both made the training a pleasure to do, coming from a off road motorcycle rider I had a lot of habits that are not necessary good for road riding, they soon got me up to speed on safely riding a motorcycle on the road, both instructors are very friendly and great on giving instructions on manoeuvres, position, speed etc, with a bit of friendly chat & banter thrown in. excellent quality bikes to learn on, nice new & modern Thanks for getting me through my DAS.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant and Professional Team I completed my CBT, Module 1 and 2 training and testing all with Shires Peteroborugh (Passed both Mod 1 & 2 first time) and I have to say that they are absolutely great team. They were extremely patient, explained everything very clearly, they managed to make this relaxed atmosphere, which also massively increased learing progression. A massive thanks to all the team (all of You were all brilliant!) For anyone who thinking about motorcycle of any sort, or got a licence and just want to refresh... I would absolutely recommend Shires Motorcycles in Peterborough.

Fantastic experience: I took my Das training, mod1 & Mod2 through Shires Peterborough in Oct 2023 & passed. I found the training to be clear, comprehensive & had individual extra help where needed from both my instructors Chris & Matt who are a real credit to the company. They are calm, experienced and treat students with respect and understanding. The bikes are kept in great condition & comfortable & light enough for me (female 5’5” ) to move around. I felt supported well on the days of my tests. They offer an individual initial test ride to let you get used to the bike which I found helpful as I’d only ever ridden a 125 before and moving to a 650 seemed a big jump (it wasn’t). They aim to teach you to be a good safe rider, not just how to scrape through a test. I have no hesitation to suggest you go speak with them if you’re looking to learn to ride. Thank you for helping me, Chris & Matt

Fantastic experience: Outstanding!! Couldn't have chosen anyone better to learn with. Matt, Chris and Chris are super friendly, patient and helpful throughout every step, and have assisted me with my CBT through to my full licence completion on the 5th Feb 2024!! They provide excellent tuition and share a wealth of experience! Bikes and gear provided are clean and of a high standard and your wellbeing, comfort and confidence are close to heart for these chaps. Couldn't recommend enough Thanks Shires Peterborough Team!

Fantastic experience: A massive thank you to Chris and his team at Shires, they have all been incredible throughout the entire process. I went from never riding a bike to passing my full A license in no time at all. They are nothing but supportive, helpful and have patience, could not ask for more from an instructor.

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience with Shires, very clear instructions and very knowledgeable people, made the whole process enjoyable. Everything was organised well, with emails and contact throughout. I had never sat on a bike before my CBT with these, and within 3 weeks passed my MOD 2 comfortably and with confidence. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Amazing! Matt is an incredible teacher. Patient & knowledgeable. Everyone at shires is wonderful. Highly recommend. I transferred to Shires from a previous instructor (another company) & wish I’d moved sooner because it instantly made sense once Matt started teaching me how to ride.
