ART Motorcycle Training Ltd: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Was recommended by a friend, I took two 1-1 lessons before taking my CBT course with ART, the instructors are extremely friendly and knowledgeable and it was a very enjoyable experience. Would recommend ART for anyone who wants to get into riding, or needs a refresher to get back into it!
Fantastic experience: Very helpful as well as great communication, passed my CBT with John and Ian and had such a good day, amazing coaching and great vibes all day long. Would highly recommend ART
Thank you very much Tress, glad you enjoyed your time with us. See you again when you are ready for your full licence :) Best regards ART Team 01293 413 330
Fantastic experience: Been training with them since I first hopped on a motorcycle. Just passed my A2 first try due to their training course with Andy. All lovely chaps who make learning to ride safely a fun and enjoyable experience. 5/5, will most certainly return for my Full A License
Thank you Seth, very glad you enjoyed yourself and passed 1st time :) Best regards ART Team 01293 413 330
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT and DAS here recently, I've ridden with I believe almost all the instructors. They are all highly motivated, incredibly helpful and honest with your ability. I would highly recommend this school to anyone, they are in it for making better and safer riders all round. I'll be back here again. Big thank you again to Andy for helping me through the DAS!
Thank you very much, very gld you had a great time with us & well done on passing the full bike licence :) Best regards ART Team 01293 413 330
Fantastic experience: Very helpful instructors that explained everything I needed to know carefully and considerately for a complete beginner like me, highly recommend if you are completely new to riding.
Thank you Issac, very glad you enjoyed your 1st lesson ART Team
Fantastic experience: I had my CBT training with Ian and it was brilliant. I was given the option to try on a manual and as I didn’t feel ready, I was allowed to swap to an automatic. The day was fun and insightful and left me feeling confident for the road on the machine I was using. Looking forward to having some lessons so I can get my full license. Thanks guys
Thanks Giulia, we are glad you enjoyed your time with us. See you soon for more lessons. ART Team
Fantastic experience: Having not riding a bike since 1987 I was a little rusty and nervous about the day doing my CBT. The instructors put me at ease straight away. They were very professional in there approach towards all of us. As we had different levels of experience. I would recommend ART to anyone wanting to do it the right way. Thanks guys
Thank you very much Stewart, we appreciate your custom. ART Team
Fantastic experience: Huge thanks to the ART team for helping me pass my CBT. From someone that's never been on a bike before the guys are extremely helpful. Made the entire process easy and even fun!! Massive thank you to John and Ian!
Thank you George, see you soon for the full licence! :)
Fantastic experience: 1:1 New Rider Training attended 01/07/2024 Was looking into getting back on two wheels after an awful CBT experience 6 years ago and I thought I would give ART a try after having this school recommended to me by other riders. I arrived very nervous, fearing a repeat of my past experiences but I truly had nothing to worry about. The instructor took care to properly get to know me and my previous experience and 90 mins later, I was fully in control of a scooter doing all the manoeuvres confidently. I would have returned for my CBT, however ART rightfully appears to be a very popular school and there wasn't any availability to suit my needs so I went to a school closer to home that had availability earlier. I wholeheartedly would recommend this riding school to anyone regardless of past experience or ability.
Thank you very Much Piotr, we are very happy that we managed to make two wheels fun again for you. Sorry you had a bad experience before, but as you said come & talk to your directly to your local training school before blindly booking online! :) ART Team
Fantastic experience: Just completed my cbt with Andy, great guy very professional. He made it very simple and very clear what he needed from me in terms of ability and with a little guidance I passed. Having contacted other schools and having friends that have been to other instructors I have no doubt in my mind that ART are definitely in a league above. Now I move on with ART moving onto full license. Again thanks Andy and the team at ART. James
Thank you very much, see you next for your full licence
Fantastic experience: John was really great - felt very safe and well supported the whole time and learned a lot; looking forward to coming back for some lessons and my A2 :)
Thank you Michael, very glad you enjoyed your time with us :)
Fantastic experience: Excellent place to learn n Pass ur cbt friendly inform trainers!! 5*****
Thank you Laura, enjoy riding your bike & we'll see you soon for full licence? ART MCXT :)
Fantastic experience: The Whole experience was great. From simply arranging everything to passing the full license test, it was great. The lady who on the phone was amazing, helped me to set everything up at the time that best suited me and helped me understand the whole process without stress. The 4 day D.A.S was also brilliant. I did it with Andy, whose instruction was clear and concise, and passed the test first time having only touched a manual bike for the first time a month and a half ago. Massive thanks to everyone at ART
Thanks for the kind words Robert, Can give yourself a huge pat on the back as well!
Fantastic experience: Had an absolutely great time here with ART. This will be my third CBT test (1st two not with ART) and ART is simply the best training centre ive been to. Ian and the team are so professional and full of knowledge. It was a joy riding with him.
Thank you Kevin, enjoy your riding and we'll see you in two years, unless you get that Theory Test passed? in which case sooner :) ART Team
Fantastic experience: Did my 4 day DAS course with Andy at the end of April; coming in I'd had some experience on a 125cc after completing a CBT but I'd never ridden anything higher so jumping onto a 650cc was something I thought would be a big step up. But thanks to Andy's calm and collected approach, I was given clear directions and plenty of pointers to ease me into riding on the bigger beasts, the sessions were full of great advice, useful tips and great reassurance from Andy who's helpful mantra of 'put mistakes behind you and learn and move on' really motivated me to cut out the silly errors and come test day I was delighted to pass both modules with no faults. Thanks to Andy and the ART team I'm now enjoying being free on the road with my new cruiser, something I've been looking forward to for a long time!
Many thanks for the review John. We are very glad you enjoyed your time with us, see you soon on your new bike :) ART Team
Fantastic experience: Thanks all the team for their efforts helping me to achieve my full Motorcycle licence. I would like to thank Ian for his superb skills and being such a good teacher helping me with the CBT, Steve for great advice on training skills for MOD1 and MOD2 and finally Bheki for chasing the bookings and all the admin works.
Thank you Rashid, very glad to have helped you on your journey. Safe riding and see you soon on your new bike. ART Team
Fantastic experience: I waited until I was at my laptop to write this review because I have so many good things to say about ART. For context, I am a female (29), and trying to get into motorcycling has been HARD. My dads and brother and partner all ride bikes so I did my CBT back home in Wales (NOT at ART) and it was made obvious by the instructor that riding was for men. So after being put off the whole idea of riding my partner convinced my to go to ART, where he did his test. I turned up for my 90 minute ride on my 125 with Andy and I was terrified I was going to be shouted at again etc etc. But honestly, I cannot tell you how wonderful everyone at ART is. the lovely lady on the phone, ALL of the instructors...just so welcoming. I of course ended up doing my DAS here and passed all thanks to Andy! He is incredibly friendly, patient, understanding and so nice to talk to, after day 1 ART felt like home. I was riding from London so it would take a while in the mornings and there were closer ones I could have gone to but ART is the only place I would go. Even contacting other places was difficult and not without resistance but if you feel like other places are pushing back or if you are a female and nervous or worried...I promise you ART is where you want to go. They know exactly what they are doing and saying so it's well worth listening to them and you will pass. The 90 minute session helps you ease into (honestly) a pretty intense DAS but its so worth it. When I got the summary back from my Mod 1 & Mod 2 everything the instructor said matched ALL of the feedback Andy gave me. ART deserves all the good things and I miss being there! Once I have gotten used to my new bike I will be doing further training there too :)
Thank you very much Josie. We are very happy to have been of service to you. We can only apologise for your dealings with previous "schools" As part of our marketing we always recommend that customers first come and see us to see if we are a good "fit" and your review makes us look tailor made! Please stay safe and enjoy your new bike. Best regards from the ART Team :)
Fantastic experience: Fantastic service provided by instructors with genuine passion for their jobs. Having had no previous experience on a geared bike, the instructors - John and Steve - were very patient and constructive with me. Would definitely recommend to new riders
Fantastic result for a new rider too! Great work Sol and thanks again
Fantastic experience: Superb service and brilliant instructors. John and Steve could not have been more professional, informative, or determined to get us through the course. They made the day fun and ultimately successful. Highly rated.
Thanks for the kind words Gerard
Fantastic experience: Had Steve as my instructor for a 4 day A2 course, best bloke to be instructed by. Clear information given and just a solid man to be around. Full of information about bikes and how to ride them well, I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. Overall the team at ART is great, from the office team on the phone to the instructors and training in person was just a great experience. Couldn't recommend them enough. Passed my course first time and was confident enough for it. Thank You to everyone at ART
Ta Kade, glad you had such a good experience & happy riding!
Fantastic experience: I’ve had a 1:1 lesson with Andy in March, and today a pass on CBT with Dave S. Both instructors were excellent, patient and encouraging, with many tips and ways to explain how to improve. Dave - the road ride for CBT today was a lot more enjoyable than I expected with clear and calm instructions, thanks so much!
Massive well done on the CBT pass Ellie! Get in touch if you want/need extra lessons on the road once you've got your own bike!
Fantastic experience: Over last few weeks ART has taken me from never riding a motorcycle to passing my CBT. Knowledge, equipment and expertise has been second to none. I’ve learnt more than can list that’s transferable to other driving disciplines. The instructors are take you through the process with ease and understanding. I’d highly recommend ART anyone. From first email to phone call all staff are fully briefed and versed to answer all questions and concerns. Looking forward to more instruction and further steps on my journey with ART. Thank you all
Ta Steven! Get some miles done on your own and then pop back in when you're ready for the bigger stuff
Fantastic experience: Never ridden a motorbike before. Took recommendation to do a New Rider Course before attempting a CBT. Very glad I did. Great instructor. Great to practice the very basics before thinking about CBT.
Thank you very much for the nice, positive review Robin. We are very happy that you enjoyed your course. See you soon for the CBT :)
Fantastic experience: Just done CBT with Dave and Andy both were brilliant and very helpful would definitely recomend
Ta Garry, glad the day was beneficial and hopefully see you in for your Licence soon
Fantastic experience: Brilliant instructor Andrew. I'd highly recommend ART to my friends and family. Not only did I learn more about the safety on the road but also had a great laugh 5+!
Thank you very much for the great review Patryk, see to soon for your full licence Many Thanks ART MCT
Fantastic experience: Both 1:1 training with Andy and my CBT with John was fantastic. Learnt so much that other CBTs never taught me before. John really made my CBT so much fun and I had a great day as well as rediscovering my love for biking. Thanks guys!
Thank you for the reply and nice positive review. All to often we get blamed for "others" failings & it's great to hear nice things said about our CBT team :) Many thanks ART Team
Fantastic experience: Great satisfaction with ART. I recommend to everyone.
Thanks Viktor Come show the team your new wheels when you're all sorted and happy riding! ART MCT
Fantastic experience: Had John for my cbt training today and he made me feel very welcome and at ease. They day went smoothly and enjoyed every part. An excellent instructor and I recommend to anyone who is looking to do their traning .
Glad you enjoyed the day Simon, have fun on your bike & we'll see you for the full licence next. ART MCT
Fantastic experience: I have done several CBT over the years. John the instructor said he would teach me something on the day he actually taught me several things he was amazing. After doing it many times I wasn't really looking forward to it but I really enjoyed and would highly recommend ART.
Thanks Gary, Glad you enjoyed your CBT and learnt some new skills. ART MCT
Negative experience: If I could give less than 1 star I would. Not at all good for new riders. Went in for a day of learning for my CBT. Not only was the second rider favoured over me and given more instruction and attention. Resulting in me falling off the bike and damaging the mirror (which ART are trying to charge me for) I was then sent in to sit in the office for half the day. DON’T GO HERE
Fantastic experience: Did a lesson and CBT after not riding for 3 years and can say that both instructors were fantastic as expected. They made me feel calm and confident and built such good rapport. The lesson was 1:1 and catered to my exact needs to ensure that the CBT was seamless the next day. I cannot recommend these guys enough and will 100% be back asap to do my DAS!
Thank you Rosie, see you soon for the full licence :) ART MCT
Fantastic experience: Dave and Andy were both personable, positive and professional. Having previously spoken with friends that had taken their CBT with other training providers, I'm in no doubt my training was thorough and of a great standard. I enjoyed the day and I'm now working on applying the training I received to my unguided rides. Gaining a full motorcycle licence is the end goal and I will certainly be booking each step of the way with ART.
Thank you Alan, very glad you had a good time. See you soon for the full licence
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT training here. I had a great time, and the training was clear and straightforward, easy to understand and fun. John was our instructor, and he did a great job of explaining and putting you at ease. Would highly recommend
Thank you Joanne, enjoy your riding
Fantastic experience: Dave S instructed me for the day, Without a doubt the best instructor I could've found. Guided me clearly, concisely and made me feel as though there were no silly questions along with being friendly and humorous, the day did not feel like a chore at any point. Dave gave me the confidence and the knowledge to go out and get my CBT first try, keeping in mind I had no experience on a Geared motorcycle. I can't Recommend ART enough and will definitely return to ART for my bigger license.
Thank you Oliver & well done. Enjoy your bike & we'll see you next time for your full licence :) ART MCT
Fantastic experience: Had a fantastic day with ART. I hadn't ridden for 25 years before deciding to take my CBT, Bex at P&H was a great help when I was thinking about the course and after a quick chat with her I was sold and when I had to swap dates she fixed it for me in less than an hour. Ian and Steve were great instructors on the day giving me all the time and assistance I needed when I needed it. Thanks, guys! I definitely plan to come back when the time comes for my mod 1 & mod 2. If I had one small gripe, it would be that the loan kit could definitely do with freshening up a tad
Thank you Mark, glad you had a good Time, see you soon for the full licence
Positive experience: Did my CBT with John today, fantastic instructor, good sense of humor and great ways of learning. Only down side to this course was the fact I was riding a 125 and had to ride out with someone on a 50cc which meant I was limited to 30mph, which was a little disappointing as was hoping to cover all road speeds.
Thank you Chris
Fantastic experience: My teacher is L. Anderson. He teaches in a very subtle manner and pays close attention to me and points out everything in the proper way. He notices everything and teaches properly. His training was amazing and i encourage other friends to take advantage of Art Motorcycle Training as well. Thank you very much again.
We'll pass your lovely comments on to him, thank you Sid
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed my CBT today with John and couldn’t have asked for more. Really focussed on safety and covering all the basic requirements. Will definitely be signing up for more lessons before my DAS. Thanks again Fabian
Cheers Fabian, always a good idea to book some lessons post-CBT as there's always loads more to learn!
Fantastic experience: I completed my CBT with ART a week or so ago now, and I am so glad I managed to find such a thorough school. I had 3 lessons before attempting my CBT and it really prepared me for the day. Without those lessons there is no chance I would of got through it first time. Including my CBT and lessons, I had 1 on 1 experience with 4 different instructors and each one had their own style. More importantly, all 4 of them were fantastic and patient, as well as making it fun. As for now, I'm going to practice a bit more before attempting my full licence. Thank you so much ART!
We've been offering beginner lessons for a long time now and for good reason! Glad they helped you get your pass Stefan
Fantastic experience: I had an enjoyable and instructive CBT course on Saturday and would highly recommend the instructor, Ian, and the ART team. Ian was knowledgeable, patient, explained things clearly and inspired confidence. I look forward to getting some riding in and then returning for for a full license.
Whenever you're ready Trevor just let us know
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend using this training school to get your A license or any bike license infact as i managed to achieve this within a month from start to finish with only having minimal on the road motorcycle experience. My instructor Andy helped me from ground up by not only teaching me top quality skills but installed a mountain of convenience within me and i couldn't thank him enough for all that he has done for me. This training school delivers a high standard of skills into there trainees and by the time you reach your test day you'll see exactly what i mean when i say you'll be well equipped for that day. Big Thanks again ARTS and a massive thank to my instructor Andy. Also big thanks to Steve and Rebecca for all your help booking my tests, lessons and all information provided.
You put in the hard work Daniel, we just tell you what to do!
Fantastic experience: Very good teacher and team. Did my cbt with these guys was a pleasure.. highly recommended!
Ta very much
Fantastic experience: Everyone at ART are amazing! Just passed my DAS today with Steve (the best week I've had in a long time!) I've had lessons with Dave and completed my CBT with John. Safe to say I've experienced a fair share of what ART have to offer and can happily say that each instructor, although different teaching style, catered for my needs and learning styles! Bex in the office is just another string to their bow, she couldn't have helped anymore and was on hand to answer any queries I had. Thank you so much
Really good to hear you got on so well Mark and hope you've racked up some miles since?
Fantastic experience: My thanks goes to Steve and the whole ART crew. Absolutely top notch! Got me to my A licence from a complete beginner, I enjoyed every minute of it!! Thanks to you all!!!!
Glad you enjoyed the experience Julian! Ride safe and have fun riding out on your own
Fantastic experience: Come back to do a lesson after not riding for a while. I've had my first CBT with ART and they were very helpful and patient then and it hasn't changed now. Things are well explained, both in layman's terms as well as in detail. Bike options are shown for different height people. Instructors are friendly and obviously well experienced. As a anxious person in general I felt comfortable, not rushed and accomplished at the end of the session. Can't reccomend this place enough Thank you ART, looking forward to my next test with you!
Thanks Maria, really appreciate the lovely review and hope to see you again soon!
Fantastic experience: Must say the Art team are a fantastic group of people very knowledgeable & just so friendly, they made passing my test an absolute pleasure. Decent bikes, just turn up & ride, treated as a fellow biker straight from start. Big thanks to Dave & Steve from Art for making my dream of riding a big bike safely.
Many thanks Michael, glad you enjoyed your time with us. ART Team
Fantastic experience: Great instructors providing excellent training instruction.
Many thanks Alex
Fantastic experience: I had a great time getting my "A" license with ART. My instructor, Andy, was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and made the training an enjoyable experience. I found the process of finding a good course and arranging training sessions to be very easy, and the staff at ART all know what they're talking about. I would definitely recommend them, and will almost certainly be back for some advanced training in the future.
Well done again Francis, hopefully see you and any new bike at the P&H shop to show off??
Fantastic experience: What can I say? Well, thank you all for helping me on my journey in working towards a full motorcycle licence. Andy, Dave, Ian, Bex, and all the family at ART for helping me achieve CBT certification. I can't give you all enough praise for your patience, professionalism, and encouragement. Trust me, ART will bring out the biker in you! Now I'm going to work towards a full motorcycle licence with ART.
Been a pleasure Josue, let us know when you're ready to develop those skills and work towards your licence
Fantastic experience: I had 3 one to one lessons and did my CBT with ART and found all their trainers to be very professional and thorough. I will definitely be back for further training to get my full licence
Thank you very much Marion, we're glad you had a great experience!
Fantastic experience: Had such a great day on Saturday with Dave, completing my CBT! He made me feel relaxed and comfortable with everything I did and was very reassuring. Can’t wait to get my bike now and then in a few months go for my DAS
Enjoy riding around on your own 2-wheels Emily! See you again when you're ready
Fantastic experience: What can be said about ART? Words aren't enough for how amazing these lot are! Did my CBT and Full licence with them, from my very first 1:1 lesson, they have been nothing but helpful, understanding and just down to earth. I could not recommend them highly enough. Andy, my instructor, was brilliant, well, they all are! Becky, Steve, you name it they're the best team going. Thank you very much, I will be bringing donuts to you shortly!
What a lovely review! Thank you Paul - your comments were passed on to the team. Ride safe and enjoy your bike
Fantastic experience: I did my CBT 11-11-22 at with ART and it was absolutely great very friendly and very helpful all ART family. I booked my full license with ART as well ( 4 days course ). My instructor was Andy W. I must say he's from day 1 until the end super helpful very professional the way Andy explain everything it was really really good. Today 10-01-23 I PASSED my Mod1 and Mod2 :) Thank you ART Family Thank you Andy W and massive thanks to Bex :)
Well done again Idris, (and thank you for the choccies!)
Fantastic experience: This is the 3rd time training with ART, started 10 years ago with my CBT and I just completed my full A license. Always friendly and super helpful. Great training as always. Couldn’t recommend the team more!
First CBT back in 2013! There's still Advanced courses to tick off once you're feeling confident Jake
Fantastic experience: Did a Direct Access course with Dave and Andy last weekend and passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 at the first attempt. Really good training and advice from the team, thanks guys !
Thanks very much Matt and well done again
Fantastic experience: Thanks to John and Becky for making my day very enjoyable. I received lots of encouragement and confidence,ending the day with my CBT certificate many thanks. Hope to return in 2023, take my test and fling away my L plates. There’s no place to go than the team at ART motorcycles. I highly recommend them, you won’t regret it.
Thanks Steve, glad you had a good experience and hope to see you back very soon!
Fantastic experience: I have done my CBT course twice at this school of motorcycles and it was very well teached and they were very friendly and helpful with the training, so I could ride safe on road with my 2 years certificate ... High recommended
Thanks very much Sérgio
Fantastic experience: Brilliant chaps down at ART. Dave was my instructor for the three days of training and he set me up perfectly to pass my practical tests on the day with confidence. Thanks again Dave and all the team at ART
Many thanks Greg, well done again on the pass!
Fantastic experience: My thanks to the team at ART for a really good CBT day. Ian (my instructor) was really patient and helpful. He put in a lot of effort to help me get comfortable using a geared bike at slow speeds, which I struggled a bit with initially. He was also admirably honest about what he needed to see for us to get out on the road, and the fact we might not achieve that, without making me feel under pressure. The extra time and effort Ian put in meant we ultimately managed to go for an enjoyable road ride (though we left a bit later than other groups!), and I felt really confident and comfortable on my bike by the end of the day thanks to all the instruction I got.
Really happy to hear you got on so well Daniel - We'll pass your comments on to Ian
Fantastic experience: The CBT training was good and the instructors (Ian, Andy and Dave) were very friendly and knowledgable. Would highly recommend. The manual bikes were in great condition. The post course recommendations were helpful and I’m moving forward with a full license.
Thanks Sammi, hopefully see you back in soon
Fantastic experience: It was a good move to go with Steve Manning and his expert team at ART. The entire process from CBT to full licence was an enjoyable, engaging and fun experience. It was great learning from such knowledgeable and patient riders. It's clear they love their job and care about your safety. If you need a motorbike mentor these are the guys you want. Highly recommended.
Ta Steve
Fantastic experience: Took my cbt a few weeks ago great bunch of guys they know there stuff friendly and professional what more can you ask for
Thanks very much Pat!
Fantastic experience: Dave and Andy the instructors were excellent with great knowledge and explained everything in detail. If you got something wrong they would either explain in detail or get on the bike and show you how to do it. I would highly recommend Art bike training
Glad you go on well with the team Carl
Fantastic experience: I'm 40 and have never ridden a bike before. I had a one on one lesson with Andy on the Sunday and by the end of the session I was riding around the training centre and had learnt many new skills that were needed for the cbt the following day (today). This was taken by Dave with Andy supervising and was fantastic. I had a few nerves but the guys quickly put them at ease and I completed the training successfully. What an amazing day, thanks guys. A* service right from booking the training to completion. Can’t wait to see you all again soon for the full test.
Ta Simon, let us know when you're ready to go for the Full Licence
Fantastic experience: Big thank you to professional instructors.I was pleasure and good experience .CBT done,time to get own bike:)
Well done Piotr, ride safe
Fantastic experience: Thank you so much to the whole ART team, especially my instructor Dave who guided me through my A2 license from start to finish. He was extremely knowledgeable and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. Bex in the office was great at getting me all booked in (despite giving her a pretty short timeframe!) I can’t recommend ART highly enough!
Thanks Reece Enjoy your freedom and we'll see you back in no time for your Licence Upgrade!
Fantastic experience: Very very good
Ta Carol
Fantastic experience: Had an amazing instructor, John, who was amazingly helpful in my lessons before doing the actual CBT. Will be coming back for my full licence with him in about a years time Thank you!!!
Thanks Jenny, well done on the CBT pass! Ride safe and look forward to seeing you back in
Fantastic experience: I had a 1:1 lesson this morning with John. Haven't ridden a bike for over 40 years and never on a road. John is a very patient and professional instructor and immediately put me at my ease. I had a great time and left feeling confident that i had achieved alot and can't wait for my next lesson. Thank you John!
Thanks very much for the kind words Marion
Fantastic experience: Great place to learn to ride
Thanks Michael
Fantastic experience: Can't recomend these guys enough! Super safe and endless laughs from start to finish. Quality training and a brilliant team. Will definitely be coming back for my unrestricted licence!
Ta Alfie, well done again and ride safe!
Fantastic experience: Very pleased with this company, very professional with great customer service, made my son feel safe and at ease passing his CBT. Would highly recommend.
It's our pleasure Hopefully see him back to renew in a couple of years!
Fantastic experience: A massive thank you to Steve and the team. Brilliant instructors who helped me from CBT to full license over the last few months. Tuition was brilliant great communication and pace of learning. Got an opportunity to go into the test centre and practice MOD1 and do the routes prior to test. Made me a much better rider as well as passing my test first time. Great value for money. You can also book theory test slots at Horley through the ART website which has MUCH better availability than DVSA !! Excited to pop into P&H and make a large purchase soon. Thank you all :)
Thanks Tom - Getting the chance to fly around the Mod 1 circuit before test day is so beneficial. Glad you had a good experience!
Negative experience: Give me my money back.
27th of September booked a CBT course for October the 21st 2021 9th of October called us to say I have injured my wrist. We advised that we require a Dr’s note or Hospital letter within 7 days of making a claim (T&C’s) 14th of October called back to say “my wrist is not too bad now!” We advised that this was not safe & wait to recover properly ( still no Dr’s note at this point) 12th of January 2022, after 95 days… Art receive a “Dr’s Note “ which was made via a video call on the 18th of October. 13th of January, after trying to reason with Mr Sukhdeep Basra (the name he gave us!) he became verbally abusive & we will not tolerate such behaviour. For anyone reading this we would advise very careful dealing with this manipulative bully, as you can see by other reviews he has left here. He acts like a spoilt toddler when he does not get his own way even though people are trying to help him.
Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend ART & Andy highly enough. It was my first experience on a bike a few months before with a 121 with Andy - his technique and patience made me comfortable and supported, which encouraged me to complete my CBT and I am now looking at the next steps to my full licence with ART with their advice. The whole team are friendly, responsive and you feel they have your best interests at heart. Thank you all and looking forward to continuing my biking journey!
Thanks Kate!
Fantastic experience: From the start John was welcoming, easy to talk to and happy to answer any questions. His teaching style worked well and made the whole day a breeze!! Bring on the DAS....
Glad you enjoyed the day - Let us know when you want to go ahead with the next bits Pete
Fantastic experience: Fab experience. The instructors are excellent (especially John). He explained everything well & welcomed questions. He was very patient & encouraging. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend them.
Glad to hear you got on so well Jill! Let us know when you want to go ahead with next steps
Fantastic experience: The best motorcycling school. I got my license on the first attempt. I'm thankful for all my instructors, especially Steve.
Ta Imran, well done again on the pass
Fantastic experience: I am thankful for the team over at ART for helping me achieve my CBT! Had a great day out on the road with John and Becky was super helpful with all my booking information. All in all I'm very pleased with the professional and kind service during the process and would definitely recommend ART for anyone else who is looking for excellent motorcycle training!
Good to hear you enjoyed the day Michael Great piccies!
Fantastic experience: Cbt passed today Excellent training and confidence building. I was really nervous but Andy really helped me to be confident.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely worth it. Andy was a man who went through all part of the CBT theory n practical. It's really important for us as a learner that instructor understand our nervousness and give their kind cooperation. This make us comfortable and positive throughout our day. Very helpful. Definitely will recommend to anyone.
Thank you Bharat, it's lovely to hear you had a good experience and we'll pass your appreciation on to Andy
Fantastic experience: I truly am grateful to the whole team at ART in looking after me through my motorcycle journey! Rebecca for always being at the end of the phone with advice and looking after my lessons and tests (including theory), Andy for seeing me thru my CBT and pre M1 lessons, Dave for the brilliant M1 + M2 training and Steve for looking after me on the test days! What a blast this journey has been! What a team! Thank you ALL!
The whole team was rooting for your Kerri! Glad you got the result you wanted and feel free to come show off your new bike once it's all sorted
Fantastic experience: A thoroughly enjoyable day doing a CBT course with instructor Andy. Very friendly while at the same time ensuring you know everything you need to know. Highly recommended!
Many thanks Graham, glad you had a good first experience!
Fantastic experience: The CBT course was really well structured and engaging. My instructor Andy, was an excellent communicator and tailored his teaching to suit my style of learning. The bike I used was really clean, well maintained and easy to ride. I will definitely be using ART again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking to learn to ride a motorbike.

Fantastic experience: I successfully completed my CBT at the weekend having never ridden a motorbike before. I would like to thank the amazing team there but especially Andy who took care of me on the day and really gave me the initial 121 time & attention I needed to get the confidence for the rest of the day. Would highly recommend anyone to this centre and so glad I completed it, be prepared to be knackered by the end of the day, totally worth it!
Thanks Tammy, really glad you had a good day and got so much out of it!
Fantastic experience: Taken two CBT's with these guys now and the instructors are just excellent. Just six years between the two courses and was lacking confidence, the guys at ART fixed that and I can be sure I will be booking my MOD 1 and MOD 2 with them keep up the excellent work!
Thanks very much Let us know when you want to go ahead with next steps
Fantastic experience: Thanks to everyone at ART gained a full A licence exactly a month before my 60th. Not an easy journey, due to Covid I ended up having to take my CBT and Theory Test twice due to them running out, but they came through and found a test date for me and with their expert training, help and encouragement I passed my Mod 1 and Mod 2. Highly recommended team of professionals.
Thanks very much for the kind words Robert, well done again on the pass!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant experience with ART, I completed my CBT in 2019 with them and have just passed my Mod 1 and Mod 2 with them. Steve and Andy both provided the teaching, with Andy and Steve on day 1, and Steve on days 2, 3 & 4. Both were brilliant and put me at ease. Would thoroughly recommend for a positive experience. Now the real learning begins!
Well done Simon, we never stop learning on bikes!
Positive experience: Definitely recommend you train with them. The staff are good, have patience & very detailed

Fantastic experience: My journey with ART (Advanced Riding Techniques) Started with my CBT which I completed with flying colours and found very enjoyable thanks to my instructor John. After expressing interest in an A1 licence within weeks I was then contacted to book my A1 training and both tests. This was just the prompt I needed to complete my full bike licence. On the 17 August, after 3 days of tutoring and with some wise bike hacks they don’t teach you at most schools, under the instruction of Dave, I PASSED both my Mod 1 & 2 with flying colours. At each stage of this process, I was nervous and anxious due to my relationship with tests and assessments, however, both Instructors were personable, patient, real people (not overbearing all it all’s) and fun to be around which really enabled me to get the job done on the day. I even utilised the 20% discount they give you on clothing and accessories for P&H Motorcycles. Thanks a million. Craig
Thanks Craig, you made it look easy throughout!
Fantastic experience: Went for a 1-1 and Andy was brilliant, worked at a pace that suited me. 2 lessons later, I’ve completed by CBT and currently working to my full licence. Highly recommend
Thanks Bob, have fun getting some miles done on your own bike and come see us when you're ready to go for the next bit
Fantastic experience: I had an introduction to riding with ART and have been hooked ever since. Having completed my CBT, had a couple of lessons then gone on to do the Direct Access course with them, I can't recommend them enough. They will make sure you have the knowledge, ability and are safe to go on and get out on the roads on your own.
Ta Matthew, really glad you had a good experience. Well done again on the pass
Fantastic experience: ART, have been amazing with my journey to a full licence. From my one to one lessons to the CBT and DAS training, everyone has been so supportive. A big thanks to Steve who has taken me through the Mod 1 & 2, very wise and calming. And a big thanks to Becky for her organisation skills.
Thanks for the kind words Fiona Well done again today and ride safe!
Fantastic experience: I completed my CBT with ART Motorcycle Training. Special thanks to Andy for making my CBT experience great. I will definitely be continuing with ART for my full A license.
Thanks Imran, we're glad you had a good experience
Fantastic experience: Couldn't have asked for a better instructor or company to learn to ride with for my DAS. Steve has decades of experience, skill and understanding training every level of rider from folks who've never touched a bike, to people who are well versed with motorcycles. Even if you have been riding for years, I guarantee you'll learn something from Steve and the guys at ART. I wholeheartedly recommend picking ART to do your training, CBT, A1, A2, DAS, and beyond etc. They're patient, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the process, building your skills and confidence gradually and at your own pace.
Glad you enjoyed your time with us James, get in touch in the future if you fancy any Advanced Training
Fantastic experience: I mean all you have to do is read through the reviews here, to understand the level of expertise the instructors have at ART. My instructor was Steve and he was fantastic! Spoke with great experience and knowledge. Made sure that you understood where you were going wrong and corrected you if necessary. I did my DAS course through them and did a 4 day intensive, I highly recommend this option for all riders. It means you do not pick up any bad habits between your rides, especially if you are currently practicing on your own 125cc. Also special mention to Bex in the office, she went above and beyond to ensure you understood each segment of the training course and all emails were responded to instantly! You can stop reading now and just book your lessons. Get off that 125cc and get a proper license! Thanks you both! Alex
Thanks very much for the kind words Alex Well done again on the pass and enjoy your new freedom!
Fantastic experience: I completed my CBT with ART Motorcycle Training, following 4 new rider lessons with them. I’m terrible with names - but all the instructors were great, especially Andy who made my CBT experience very enjoyable. I’ll definitely be continuing with ART for my full licence but need to get a few miles under my belt first!
Thanks Melanie! Enjoy getting some seat-time in by yourself and hopefully we'll see you back at the school very soon
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the experience of doing DAS, tests and getting my A license at ART - they're all nice people, really experienced but with loads of patience (that they needed with me - I had no bike experience beyond a CBT and 30 years of car driving habits to break), solid advice and coaching, helped by excellent relations with the DVSA and some fantastic test routes around rural Sussex. Dave was great during my DAS course, and Steve really helped get my confidence up & my nerves under control for that final push over the line with the Mod2 pass. It's been an education - thanks guys.
Really well done Craig, hope to see you out and about!
Fantastic experience: Sue is amazing, they're all so kind and encouraging. Would 100% recommend.
Thank you Blue, enjoy your riding. Come back & see us soon :)
Fantastic experience: Hi I wanted to post this review to tell you about my fantastic experience with Art Motor Cycle Training and one of their instructors John. I am a retired Advanced Police Driver and currently I volunteer with the London Ambulance driving and responding in emergency mode. I have never ridden a motorcycle in my life and I will share with you that I am 64 years young. Unfortunately I was late arriving for my lesson (M25 traffic!). John went out of his way to facilitate my late arrival. Johns instruction and the way he delivered it was first class. I have been a trainer all my working life and to see training delivered in this way is an absolute pleasure. John immediately put me at ease (I was apprehensive) he patiently explained the process in a clear concise way which was easy to understand. I felt safe carrying out his instructions. He was very calm, patient and encouraging which made the experience so enjoyable. I have already booked further lessons with John at ART.
Thank you for the kind words Gary! We've passed your comments on to John
