Thanks Dan. Glad that you enjoyed your training with us. Ride safe.
Fantastic experience: Great instructors, got me through my motorcycle licence quickly, and with little stress. Definitely recommend this training school if you're seriously looking to get on a motorbike
Thanks Aimee. Ride safe and enjoy the bike. Better than driving a bus I'm sure.
Fantastic experience: Chris trained me from beginner to passing my MOD2 in a pretty short timeframe. He was very patient but strong in his teaching. His style made me totally at ease. At no point did I feel like Chris was trying to push anymore lessons than necessary and in fact got me through in less than I thought I needed. On top of that, just a great guy. Highly recommended. Why bother going elsewhere.
Thanks Tim for the feedback. Ride safe.
Fantastic experience: Did an hour taster session today with Bridgend Motorcycle Training Centre and what an experience. I have never ridden a motorbike before and was rather nervous.Within the one hour session I was riding the bike through cones,u turns, figure of 8's,changing gears and doing emergency stops. I've booked my CBT with them and once done I'll be doing my mod1/mod2. Can't recommend enough!
We are glad that you enjoyed the taser session. They are well worth it if you have no experience of riding prior to doing your CBT. Thanks again.
Fantastic experience: I recently did my cbt here and can say i was very pleased . Both kevins and levi were very friendly and gave us all very good instruction and guidance on how to safely manouver the bike and ride to a good standard . The bikes were well looked after and were easy to ride . I will definitely be coming back for my mod 1 and mod2 training , cannot recommend this place enough .
Fantastic experience: Did my cbt, Mod 1 with training and mod 2 with training. The trainers are friendly and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed the experience. Would definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant day will be going back for mod 1 and 2
Fantastic experience: Chris (instructor) got me through my CBT, Mod1 and Mod2 1st time in a matter of a couple of months... Can't fault the Bridgend team... Looking to book my advanced training with them soon!
Fantastic experience: Awsome place to go for you to learn how to ride a bike safe on the roads, instructors 10/10 couldnt get a better duo⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fantastic experience: On July 3rd, I successfully completed my Compulsory Basic Training (CBT) at Bridgend Motorcycle Training Centre. In my professional opinion, it is an exceptional motorcycle training facility that provides comprehensive instruction in a supportive and nurturing environment. I had the privilege of being trained by Stephen, a highly skilled and experienced instructor who imparted valuable techniques and ensured I had access to the best motorcycles for training. I highly recommend Bridgend Motorcycle Training Centre to anyone seeking CBT. Their commitment to excellence and personalized approach make them the ideal choice for motorcycle training.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic well run course
Fantastic experience: Great day of training for the CBT, Steve was an amazing instructor, really knowledgeable and gave great advice for what to do after passing the CBT.
Fantastic experience: The place to go for you cbt and full motorbike training
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend BMTC 1st class training from my CBT to Mod2. Fantastic friendly instructors ,great facilities had excellent training from Chris
Fantastic experience: Fantastic instructors that have guided me from never riding a motorcycle to passing a full, unrestricted motorcycle test. They are calm and helpful the whole time and dont ever over charge for lessons, if they think you are ready for your test they will advise to book it in straight away. I even moved to the Gloucester area and still found myself travelling back due to enjoying learning with them that much! Definitely worth doing your Motorcycle training with them!
Fantastic experience: Very friendly knowledgeable instructors. Gave me the skills and confidence to go from having no experience to passing my full test in just over 3 months. I highly recommend these guys
Fantastic experience: 5* training from Lindsey and Chris for my A licence. Definitely recommend this training school. Fair prices, honest appraisals of your capabilities, great facilities and top tier teaching, passed both mod 1 & 2 with confidence and ease being a 5’1 lady! Thank you!!
Positive experience: It's not an easy place to find, so get there early. The entrance is hidden off a lane with a single rising entry gate like car parks. It is also a caravan and motorhome storage compound. BMT is about 30 yards, then turn left into a lane, then another 20 yards to small fenced compound. Park outside if in a car. Steve was my friendly and helpful instructor for CBT. Bikes are all quite new and well maintained. They also sell helmets and clothing and give excellent guidance. The teaching is in a portacabin, which is cold, so wrap up warm. I did not wear enough warm clothing. They supply tea/coffee, helmets and a jacket. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Fantastic time with Chris and Lindsey doing my progressive access. I couldn't ask for better training.
Fantastic experience: Great but extremely hard to find and not very well signposted
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend these guys from start to finish professional and couldn’t recommend enough ️
Fantastic experience: What can I say I would highly recommend them 5 Start service from the phone call from the start to the end of the training of my Mod 1 Booked my Mod 1 test with them as well
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Bridgend Motorcycle Training Centre. Did my CBT, MOD1 and MOD2 with them. Friendly and professional instructors. Bridgend is a fun place to learn.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant place to learn. Very relaxed and patient. Couldn't recommend highly enough
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT for the 2nd time. Instructor easy to talk with, really helpful and all went well. Thanks Steve
Fantastic experience: I completed my CBT, Mod 1 and Mod 2 with Bridgend Motorcycle Training. I passed first time on each section and really enjoyed the whole experience. The training I received was outstanding as I had never been on a motorbike before. I dealt with Steve and Chris, and I can say they are great guys and have a great way of learning new riders to an excellent standard. I would recommend Bridgend motorcycle training for anyone who would like to learn to ride and pass your test. Thank you for all your help and I will surely call in when I get my first bike. Happy new year to you all
Fantastic experience: Top class instruction and experience form start to finish from Lindsey and the team! Started with my CBT early September 23 and have just passed my Mod 2 mid Dec 23.
Fantastic experience: Excellent school, I used these guys starting with my CBT all the way through to passing my MOD 2 (direct access route). They were very helpful, friendly and accommodating throughout. High training standards and experienced instructors. Highly Recommend! 11/10.
Fantastic experience: Bought my wife a taster session, it was excellent value. The gents running the training were friendly and welcoming. They ran a great season for my wife and she came out grinning from ear to ear. Will come back for her CBT!
Fantastic experience: Travelled a fair distance to train with these guys. Totally worth it, everyone has been absolutely AMAZING!! Always had plenty of patience and time for me. I went from never having ridden a motorbike and in two months passed my mod 2 today! Thanks to everyone at BMT!!!!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant! I am glad I chose these people over other schools. Their excellent reviews are well deserved.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant training centre, the instructors are clear, concise and make sure that you're fully comfortable. They're not in it to take your money, they want you to pass.
Fantastic experience: Thanks to all the guys at the Bridgend Motorcycle training, excellent tuition and very enjoyable experience, thanks very much.
Fantastic experience: In a little over two months I went from CBT to full pass! The instructors are quite simply the best. They make you feel relaxed so you can take their instruction in calmly and actually enjoy every second of it. If you are even just thinking about learning to ride, give these guys a call, you won’t be disappointed!
Fantastic experience: Had my CBT there just a couple of days ago. Great experience and very knowledgeable instructors. Would recommend.
Fantastic experience: Trained at BMT through the whole of my bike training journey from CBT to Mod 2. CBT was a great day and a good introduction to the fundamentals of bike saftey and riding. The guys made it it more enjoyable than it has any right to be. MOD 1 training was quick and effective, only needed a few hours practice to come away with a clean sheet after my assessment. Mod 2 was much the same, 5 hours training with 1 hour the day before the test and 1 hour on the day. Got the all important pass first time round . A big thank you to Chris for guiding me through Mod 1 and 2. Made the whole process easy a stress free and most of all, a good bloody laugh. Finally a big thank you to Bridgend motorcycle training and everyone invloved in making it happen. See you on the road !
Fantastic experience: After completing my Mod 1 and 2 training with the guys, passing both on the first attempt with good results, I can't recommend them enough. Please keep up the good work guys, see you for advanced rider lessons in the not too distant future hopefully!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant guys helped me through my CBT after having no experience using a motor vehicle before. Cheers again lads!
Fantastic experience: As an English as a second language, i would like to thank you Steve and Kevin for a very constructive CBT training. You both are resourceful, easy going and patience. Both theoretical and practical lessons are very helpful and give me a good grips how to ride safely. Appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Very nice place. Kind intructors and good motorcycles.
Fantastic experience: The instructor's were friendly and professional and got me from never riding a motorcycle before to passing my Full unrestricted license. Can't thank them all enough a great bunch of lads who are passionate about getting bikers on the road safely. Prices are very good and they will only provide as much training as needed, they will NOT keep providing lessons to fill their own pockets like some other buisness'!
Fantastic experience: 5* service. We can't thank Kevin, Steve, and team enough for putting us at ease on 2 wheels. Will recommend to everyone. Thanks again. Update: Bec and I had two taster sessions last year before our trip away to South France. We have since caught the bug and returned to BMT to do our CBT and get our own bikes. Fantastic experience and cannot recommend BMT enough, especially Kev and both Steves. If you're thinking of getting a CBT, look no further.
Fantastic experience: My partner and I had two taster sessions with both Kevin and Steve in preparation for hiring scooters on holiday and it was absolutely amazing, both trainers were incredibly patient and helpful and just overall lovely guys who couldn’t do enough to help us. I was quite nervous but they put me at ease and talked me through anything I struggled with. 5 stars plus 1! Amazing all around. Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: Great safer teaching well needed..
Fantastic experience: Great instructors who are very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended.
Thanks Phil. We’re glad that you enjoyed the days retraining with us.
Fantastic experience: 100% recommend BMTC. All instructors are friendly and professional. They make very easy for you to go from CBT all the way through to MOD2. If your thinking of riding a bike give them a call!!
Fantastic experience: Really professional and very friendly staff defo recommend these guys. They know how to train you and make you feel very confident when riding thank you all
Fantastic experience: My son seemed to have a good experience here. Passed his CBT training after a slightly wobbly start.
Many thanks for your feedback. we ate glad that you son enjoyed his training with us. Ride safe.
Fantastic experience: Steven is so great, he makes your training so simple and easy
Fantastic experience: Passed mod 1 today on one go. Thanks to Richard and Lindsay . Richard what an excellent instructor if you listen to him you are sorted . He fix the problem and guides you . I highly recommend Bridgend motorcycle training 5 star place to train.
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT. Instructors were very helpful and taught all the information needed and how to check and ride the bike. Went for my road ride with Steve, he was brilliant and gave a lot of helpful information on how I should improve. 5/5 from me
Thank you DANIEL for your review. I'll pass on your comments to Steve. We're glad that you enjoyed your day with us despite the weather. Thanks again.
Fantastic experience: Had a fantastic day, the trainers Craig and Kevin really patient, as well as professional they were a good laugh which settled the nerves. Cbt done, theory booked and if allowed back lol can't wait for the beginning of more advanced training....... Couldn't recommend better.
Fantastic experience: Bridgend Motorcycle Training Centre deserve the upmost praise. I was a confidence lacking trainee with no experience. From day one at the CBT, the guys were great. I was lucky enough to be trained by 4 of the instructors during my experience, Chris, Richard, Kevin and Lindsey all had buckets of patience and a calming effect.Their application to train and their friendliness towards trainees really helped. Throughout my Mod1 and Mod2 training Lynsey especially boosted my confidence and made me feel relaxed, his knowledge on the road and stay safe riding attitude left a mark. 10/10 for BMTC Thank you for helping me achieve my goal. John Enticott passed with a full license 12/10/22
That you so much for your feedback. Hopefully we'll see you for some further training in the Spring. Ride safe.
Fantastic experience: I completed an intensive course for my full category A. I had a bloke of time off which they where more than happy to try and accommodate. The level of instruction and the actual instructors knowledge is second to none!! They all have tips and methods which offers an amazing variety whilst all working towards the same goal and achieving the coaching goals! I would not recommend anywhere else to go! They operate like a true professional should. When you think you will be the most vulnerable person on the road! It's key to be safe and at a competent level. They teach you how to ride safely not just rehearsals on how to pass a test! Faultless is all I can say. Thank you all gentlemen!
Fantastic experience: Great guys to do CBT and mod 1 and 2 with
Fantastic experience: Steve was a great trainer. I was so bad to start with I thought I was gonna be carted off in an ambulance but I finished the day on a high as I quickly picked it up! Great training and well worth the sweat and perseverance
Fantastic experience: First time riding a motorcycle if you are the same as myself, you should book a taster before taking your CBT Bridgend training Center is the best, you will find in just,1 hr taster it builds your confidence and relaxes you with there training. I found them great and I was confident riding the motorbike with in about 15 minutes,they explain everything so well. The training is superb. S.Powell
Fantastic experience: Brilliant CBT training with professional and friendly trainers. 100% recommended. Thank you! :)
Positive experience: Great great experience! I would recommend booking the additional training option if you are going for your CBT training. I arrived without much knowledge about motorcycles and left with a passion for riding! Believe you can do it and you will do it. Bring your own great if you can though you don't wanna be riding with other people's gear.
Fantastic experience: Outstanding training by Lindsey. I've done a lot of off road motocross over the years so opted for the fast-rack one week course to do my Mod 1 & Mod 2 tests. Tips provided were spot on in getting me road ready, great training routes and a good laugh along the way - highly recommend!
Negative experience: My CBT training got cancelled just a night before my training. I’ve got a call late evening.. the day before the appointment. Now I have to wait 10+ days for the refund as well. My plans are ruined.
Fantastic experience: Excellent. Went at my pace and covered everything in detail. Friendly and professional.
Fantastic experience: I had my first taster lesson today, im not confident or have ridden a motorbike before, not even a push bike since a teen lol, but I really enjoyed!! I had one on one teacher called Steve that has a very calming nature, he talked myself through it all, and built my confidence I needed, staff are very friendly and professional, cant wait to go back again, thank you
Fantastic experience: I headed down to BMTC on Thursday to complete my CBT. A special thank you to my instructor on the day Kevin Murphy, who was absolutely fantastic, a real asset to the company. After completing the day with virtually no motorcycle experience previously (bar a little taster session 8 years ago), I have left very well informed and with a great amount of confidence and knowledge. I'm very much looking forward to coming back in the future to complete the remaining tests.
Fantastic experience: Completed my cbt here.. Very friendly instructor and patient :) I will look to complete my full licence. Would recommend this place.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service by all the guys there. Comes are consistently good and the quality of tuition is second to none. Highly recommended for all your biking needs !
Fantastic experience: Great CBT training, just booked my MOD 1 training also. Will use these guys to complete my motorcycle licence.
Fantastic experience: great training from Phil the instructor . Helped my 16y immensely couldn't have been more helpful thanks Phil great job
Fantastic experience: Great welcome and professional from the start, Kevin has the patience of a Saint and a great instructor. Facilities are perfect and the bikes are very well looked after, I can't recommend these guys enough.
Fantastic experience: Quality bunch of instructors with well looked after bikes, couldn't have chosen a better place to learn, cheers guys
Fantastic experience: Great training, great teachers, weather wasn't the greatest but we made the best of it, on to the next stage, can't wait.
Negative experience: I did my CBT with these and thought I would move on to my mod1. Did 1 x 3hr session. Yes I dropped a bike due to grabbing a handful of front brake but the bike had no back brake to speak of. The next bike I was given had a leaking front shock. Other students were riding with nearly 3 inches of slack in the chain. Be prepared for ribbing behind your back as instructors take the mickey out of pupils behind their backs. I cancelled my next session and sent an email to Lindsey, a director and ex police officer. I never received a reply hence my review. Obviously they hear complaints a lot.
Fantastic experience: I would like to thank the team down at BMTC for earning their pay to get me through the CBT test! ;o)) I know that they will agree that i will need more than a few sessions to get me through to A2 status to pass but hey! it takes as long as it takes right!?. Thanks for your time patients & expertise with this 58yr old, I have enjoyed making you earn for me! ;o)) Keep up the excellent work you do to keep all the nutters safe. I will be back! ;o)) T P Ashdown (Old MOD)
Fantastic experience: Done my CBT today with Chris, brilliant teacher loads of knowledge and the hole thing was extremely well taught. Very impressed with the service. Will be back soon for my full licence.
Fantastic experience: Good and expert's trainer's, and making a good job
Fantastic experience: Lyndsey is an old-skool police bike instructor that has be there and done it. Along with his straight talking, no messing team, they deliver high quality training that will get you through your MOD 1&2 tests. If you want to get your bike licence then I can High recommend these guys.
Fantastic experience: Well situated and trainers are enthusiastic and patient.
Fantastic experience: All good. Good training.
Fantastic experience: Did my first mod 1 session with these guys on Saturday. I didn't have much faith in my motorcycling ability after riding for only one year after a CBT. I thought it'd be 1:1 instruction but I was thankful to be participating with two others. Plenty of learning opportunities throughout the three hours including watching others, receiving personal constructive feedback, practical manoeuvres and group chats. Really enjoyed my time here, the instructors made me feel at ease and looking forward to my next session. Thank you
Fantastic experience: These guys are simply brilliant.....Thank you so much Richard and Kevin.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this motor bike training company, just passed my direct access first time with no faults , speaks volumes for these instructors especially Lindsey, and his wife was always polite and helpful. Thanks for everything
Fantastic experience: I've just done my CBT course. The two Kevin's instructors. They were fantastic. Very professional I would definitely recommend Bridgend motorcycle training. Keep up the good work I will be back for my mod 1 thank you Jeff Miller
Fantastic experience: Dropped my lad off for his CBT seems like a good training centre

Fantastic experience: Excellent riding school, can't recommend them enough. Very patient and professional instructors who teach constructively without knocking your confidence. Far better instruction and much better prices than another local school I'd been to previously. Good value for money. And the bikes are great, well maintained and very easy to get used to. Also covid safe
Fantastic experience: I did a CBT and the next week a Direct Access intensive course, the instructors are friendly and very knowledgeable! I passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 on the same day with only 1 minor. 100% recommended.
Fantastic experience: Great instructors, would definitely recommend training with these guys. I did my CBT to Mod 2 with them, the training received was excellent.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend they are awesome especially Chris what a great teacher and great knowledge if u wanna learn this place is the place
Fantastic experience: I was referred to this business by a close friend who completed his motorcycle training with them. I undertook my CBT, Part 1 and Part 2 motorcycle training with this business and in total I was trained by 3 different Instructors all of which struck the right balance between taking your training serious, making you feel relaxed, respecting the need for safety and delivering their messages in a way that was eenjoyable. There is no doubting the level of expertise and experience of these Instructors and you are always made welcome and part of the crew. Cllr Tony Crutcher
Fantastic experience: After completing my A2 test I can say that the team here are outstanding always going the extra mile when possible. it's a great place to learn with an incredibly friendly atmosphere. I will be coming back to complete my full A licence in 2 years
