Chappers Motorcycle Training Hereford

Fantastic experience: Great duo with a wealth of experience. After having not been on a bike for 20 years I was able to breeze through my mod1 and 2 using their DAS service. Would highly recommend them for anyone wanting to ride a bike and do it with confidence.

Fantastic experience: Just want to say a massive thanks to both instructors today. Really easy to talk too, clearly knowledgeable and have a great way of explaining it. Definitely doing my A2 or full A licence when I decide which here. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Honestly, I couldn’t recommend them enough. Polly and Paul are great people who really helped me get across the finish line with my Module 2 bike license. I initially contacted them about booking a lesson to prepare for my Module 2 test, and Polly was incredibly helpful in getting me scheduled for a Sunday morning session. She went over everything expected in the test, and then we hit the road, where she helped me understand the mistakes I was making and how to correct them. Thanks to her guidance, I was able to pass on my first attempt. On the test day, I had a lot on my mind, but Paul took the time to chat with me and go over everything one more time. I’m so grateful he did—it really helped me calm down and go into the test with a clear understanding of what I needed to do. I honestly highly recommend them, and I’ll always send people their way, whether they’re doing a CBT or going for their bike license. Thanks again, guys—10/10!

Fantastic experience: Extremely happy with my experience. I booked my CBT and I couldn’t fault anything. Very nice people as well I will be booking my direct access training With Chappers as well. I borrowed equipment and everything fitted perfectly. With no experience riding on the road my worries were very quickly put to ease. I could not recommend these guys enough.

Fantastic experience: I was recommended to do my CBT with Paul and Polly and I am so glad I was. Last time I did a CBT was 20 years ago and no more experience than that. I was so excited to get back on a bike but also very nervous. I cannot fault the day or the support provided by them both. They are both so calm and encouraging which really helped me. The most important thing too is the day was a very enjoyable one. Thank you both for such a fabulous CBT day!!! Georgia

Fantastic experience: Having never ridden a motorcycle before and after a lot of searching around I booked my CBT with Chappers and following that my DAS to get my full category A license. Throughout the training from start to finish Paul and Polly’s instruction and teaching was great. It was very clear and they also gave me plenty of everyday riding tips which were helpful also. I also booked a couple of 2 hour lessons between my tests which they offer which were invaluable to my progression. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chappers to anyone looking to start their motorcycling journey. Not just great instructors but really great people too. Thanks both!

Fantastic experience: Great instructors, much better than other places

Fantastic experience: Polly and Paul are great instructors ️ took me from wobbly riding on a 125 before doing the DAS course with them to passing my Mod 2 with zero faults as a provisional licence holder a couple of weeks ago. I can now work on getting more road experience on my own big bike with a really solid grounding in bike handling and road safety from my sessions with them. Don't hesitate to book additional instruction outside of the DAS course if you're less experienced on the road like myself - I found these extra sessions so valuable. I will definitely be back for additional training now that I'm fully licensed (after getting some more miles under my belt). Thank you both!

Fantastic experience: After receiving recommendations from several people I booked my CBT with Paul and Polly. Having absolutely no experience with motorcycles I was very apprehensive about what lay ahead. Right from the off I was reassured that they would take the time to go threw everything I would need and if I needed to ask questions or wanted extra time on a particular exercise I to just ask. My apprehension quickly subsided and i found myself enjoying the training. By the time it came to the road ride I felt good in the knowledge that Paul and Polly had given me the tools i needed to progress. I can't thank them enough for the care and attention they gave me and look forward to the next stage of my riding adventure. Thank you

Fantastic experience: I completed my CBT training today with Chappers Motorcycle Training and felt I had to share my experience. Having not ridden a motorcycle in over 20 years, I was a bit nervous, but from the moment I arrived, I was made to feel completely at ease. Paul and Polly were absolutely fantastic – they were friendly, knowledgeable, and excellent at explaining everything in a clear and simple way. The whole process was enjoyable and easy to follow. I can’t recommend them highly enough for anyone considering motorcycle training!”

Fantastic experience: The hole experience was just so positive. I was really anxious about going on the roads for the first time, but thanks to words of reassurance and clear instructions from Polly, those feelings very quickly diminished. I had so much fun on the roads that the 2 hours felt like 20 minutes. The two presentations Paul aslo did were relaxed and very entertaining, great to listen too. I was able to go out onto the roads by myself the very same day after completingthe final part of the training, and had great confidence in my ability ride safe and do things right. I don't think this would have been possible if i hadn't gone to Chappper's. Thank you Paul and Polly, you guys are the best.

Fantastic experience: I recently completed my CBT with Chappers Motorcycle Training in Hereford, run by Polly and Paul, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The training was thorough and well-structured, allowing me to get a good grip on each skill before moving on to the next. Polly and Paul’s teaching style was fantastic—clear, patient, and very engaging. They have incredible knowledge and made the whole experience enjoyable and fun. I loved every minute and felt completely at ease with them. I’m definitely looking forward to doing more training and getting additional licenses with Chappers. Huge thanks to Polly and Paul! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to start or advance their motorcycle training - Kieran D

Fantastic experience: I did my CBT there today both of them were absolutely lovely very informative the bikes were in very good condition and absolute pleasure to ride and I will definitely be recommending them to everyone I know

Fantastic experience: Having recently pass my test with Chappers and read the negative review below, I thought I would add my experience with them, that was completely different. I had never ridden a motorcycle before, but thought I would give it a go, I called to see Chappers at their unit just to get an idea of what was involved, I was made very welcome, by Paul and Polly, they showed me round and explained what was involved, they were so friendly and encouraging I decided to book my CBT and see how I got on. I attend the course with 3 other riders who all had some previous experience unlike me, however, we were all treated the same, shown videos and explained what was expected and from a skill and safety. aspect before we went near the bikes, they supplied me with all the equipment I needed, helmet, jacket and gloves. We did the off road training and I was given as much time as I needed, which was a little more than the others, before we went on the road. CBT passed, I booked an additional lesson with Polly as I thought it would help to refine the skills I had learnt, by the end of that lesson I was hooked, got a 125 to practice on and a few months later I was back to get my full licence, the training was excellent, even traveling to Gloucester to practice on the mod 1 test facility. We were tested off and on road, even filmed. so when we returned to base we could review our ridding and go through what was good and what could be improved. The day of my Mod 1 test I met them in Gloucester, Polly even road the bike I had been training on to the facility so I had bike I was familiar with. Mod 1 passed and Mod 2 booked. Again more training with Polly, she was great and encouraging, got me through my MOD 2 with no minor faults. I cannot thank both Polly and. Paul enough, they are very professional , safe and welcoming, if you are thinking of motor cycle training, this is the place.

Fantastic experience: Recently did my CBT with Chappers Motorcycle Training, very experienced instructors who were both thorough and accommodating. Highly recommend Thank you

Negative experience: I recently attended for CBT training with this company having had no previous experience of riding a motor cycle. I managed to complete some of the statutory requirements but not enough to allow me to complete the on road section, this I completely understood, however on reflection I do feel that the speed in which you are expected to learn for a first time rider is too quick. Some of this may be due to the fact that there is a time limit on the car park area they use. The instructors are obviously experienced riders and this shows, however it does not necessarily translate into being good instructors. I felt there was a limited feedback from them as to what I was doing wrong or what I needed to do, it sometimes felt like you were shown the exercise and just expected to be able to copy it. Despite my misgivings I did decide to go back for another CBT, although I have to say after my first experience I was more apprehensive and consequently my riding suffered as a result. On this occasion I was not able to complete two of the disciplines with any degree of confidence namely the U turn and the figure of eight although we continued to proceed with the course. Subsequently on the road section I completely failed to negotiate a junction and was told to stop, again understandably, however the instructor at this point gave me no feedback on what had gone wrong, what I should have done or could have done to prevent it, she was more concerned with how to get my bike back to the HQ. I was left on the side of the road whilst she moved her bike to a safe place, she then came back and told me I would have to walk back at which point my confidence was in tatters. I told her I was going home, there was no empathy or discussion. After a couple of weeks I decided to try again and booked with another local company, what a completely different experience, the instructor was knowledgeable, professional and most importantly knew how to instruct and build your confidence. I completed all of the disciplines and the road section without any issues, even riding through busy city traffic. I left with my CBT and confidence fully restored.

Fantastic experience: Recently did my progressive access for my full A license and did my A2 from cbt 2 years ago. Really great people and plenty to learn from them. If the average doesn’t tell the story, then I don’t know what will.

Fantastic experience: Booked CBT for my 16 year old son. From enquiring, to booking, to my son spending the day with Chappers on his CBT the service was nothing but professional, responsible and friendly. My son said he felt at ease and safe at all times. As parents we worried about him being on the road but were assured from the beginning safety first and safety it was all the way. Highly recommended. I’ll even be taking my own CBT with these guys.

Fantastic experience: Amazing training experience! I passed with 0 faults through Chappers after only a few weeks of training. The two-way comms system really makes a huge difference, allowing for immediate feedback and correction on any questions you want to ask. I was with Paul most of the time and one of the best parts was watching the recording he would take so that he could point out to me any mistakes I was making. It made it really easy to identify where I needed to improve upon. Paul and Polly are both great instructors—you can tell they are truly passionate about what they do. Their expertise and friendly approach made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. Highly recommend these guys.

Fantastic experience: Went to Paul and Polly from a recommendation from a friend. I’d never ridden a motorbike before in my life before my cbt at Chappers, so I went in and put all my faith in what they were telling me as everything felt alien at first, long story short from never riding a bike through to the direct access giving me a full motorcycle licence in less than a month I left my Mod 2 as a completely competent rider, both Paul and Polly are great instructors and I couldn’t recommend them enough, thanks guys worth every penny

Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend Polly and Paul for anyone wanting to learn to ride a motorbike or improve their skills. Redone my Cbt again today and polly and Paul are friendly and helpful

Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend Polly and Paul for anyone wanting to learn to ride a motorbike or improve their skills. I undertook my one-day CBT course last year. The trainers were extremely knowledgable, professional and friendly. The course was very well structured and the guidance and instruction was easy to understand. With common sense advice. Unable to adapt your own learning style I will be back for further training in the near future.

Fantastic experience: the previous reviews speak for themselves really, only training school where i’ve actually learnt and not used it as a self teaching bike for hire rental. Paul and Polly are great although paul’s way of teaching specifically stuck out to me and really made me realise the rubbish i’ve been fed from other schools. without discrediting polly she was also very friendly and helped with getting used to a bigger bike. Coming from a few years of experience prior i’ve certainly still learned a whole lot and will definitely be going back to do my full A in 2 years with chappers. Id highly recommend them and ignore the 1 star review although i would’ve loved to see it live in action as it sounds wrongfully quite funny.

Fantastic experience: Polly and Paul are honestly marvellous! I don't normally write reviews but I cannot just leave without leaving one! Absolutely Fantastic training school not like any training school I've been too! I was previously training with two different schools but had awful results with awful people skills that knocked my confidence! The test centre in Newport I was previously using also knocked my confidence by failing 7 tests by the same examiner!!! Over the same things or opposite by saying one thing on one test. Then failing me on the opposite thing on another! Very contradicting feedback AVOID!!! My confidence was knocked before visiting chappers and with doing a couple hours training with Polly and Paul they both really brought my confidence back in riding! I couldn't recommend them enough! What I found helpful that Chappers use on training is the use of recording to playback faults you had while out on the bike! EVERY training school should do this as this is the best way to see how you ride and learn from the faults you make along the way before test day! I travelled from South Wales to Chappers Motorcycle training Hereford and I PASSED FIRST TIME! I cannot recommend Chappers and of course Polly and Paul that run the school, VERY supportive and help you along the way to get a full license!

Fantastic experience: Polly and paul excellent instructors fabulous people skills comprehensive training best about for sure . Mod 2 test smashed no faults all down to pollys instruction and guidance

Fantastic experience: I did my DAS with Chappers and passed both my mod 1 and mod 2 on my first attempts with them. Paul and Polly are brilliant! Very knowledgeable instructors who teach you not just to pass the tests but also arm you for safe riding once you are done. These guys won't just take your money and throw you on a course if you are not ready, its a really good consultative school with constant feedback given. They are both really friendly and approachable and have a great training style. It's clear that they really care about the students and delivering high quality training, I think they are as nervous as the trainees when it comes to test time. The bikes are all really well looked after and maintained, they took delivery of some brand new SV650's while I was training with them, all the machines really do want for nothing. So much so that I am buying one of the retired training bikes from them. I can't thank Paul and Polly enough for the confidence inspiring, fantastic tuition. If you are looking for a training school for CBT, A2, or A licence training I can't recommend Chappers enough.

Fantastic experience: Polly and Paul are incredible. Great comprehensive training and all the guidance you need to help you pass. I am absolutely chuffed to have passed my Mod 1 and Mod 2 with them. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Paul and Polly are very welcoming a good laugh and very knowledgeable. My first CBT with them was my error and I knew this. Coming back on my second attempt after only a few months, Paul and Polly both noticed a significant improvement from being a complete beginner to where they helped me get to. I had explained I was able to get around 10 hours of practice with a friend of mines son on a private area and it helped my confidence greatly hearing the kind words from them both. During my practice in their facilities I developed a feverish heated head due to an ongoing cold I had been having and had to skip my ride on the road. Paul said "Not to worry, we'll contact you and take you out on the road to complete your CBT". He was brilliant on the road able to have a laugh and conversation during the ride in such a relaxed manner that if he had not been talking, I would have easily thought I was riding on my own. I can't recommend them highly enough! Many thanks to you both for your dedication and support!

Fantastic experience: Massive thank you to Paul and polly! Fantastic instructors, wouldn’t have one bad word to say about them. They are extremely supportive and patient whether you have experience riding or not. I had done my CBT, Mod 1 and mod 2 with them and passed first time! They have a range of good quality modern bikes and with all there skill and knowledge they will make you a confident safe rider. From CBT to a full A unrestricted bike license. 10/10 all round and I couldn’t recommend you enough! Thank you again

Fantastic experience: Simply the best. Really good, modern and clean bikes kept in superb condition regardless of cost. Polly and Paul are lovely people who really know their stuff to get you through the various tests. Fantastic base they run out from in Hereford. All in all a classy operation I'd have absolutely no hesitation reccomending to the fullest. Thanks a million to the both of you.

Fantastic experience: Both Paul and polly are spot on, from The cbt to Mod 1 and 2. Can genuinely say I was the most confident and prepped I’ve ever been going into a test of any kind. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Received my CBT from chappers today can't thank them enough, excellent training, thank you Paul and polly ill definitely be back to do my direct access

Fantastic experience: Just passed my direct access licence thanks to Pol and Paul. Cannot recommend them enough this is the place to be if you want to properly learn how to ride!

Fantastic experience: Brilliant couldn't of asked for better instructors, update bikes and equipment. Will take you from CBT to full licence and you'll enjoy every minute of it.

Fantastic experience: I rang Chappers for help following a serious motorcycle accident and lack of confidence, they could not have been more helpful they were %100, No pressure, gave good advice and found me an appropriate motor bike to ride i cannot find enough words to describe their professional friendly and willingness to adjust to my situation at every "turn" do not hesitate i have found no better. thank you again, philip jenkins

Fantastic experience: Had such a great experience doing my CBT here after a dreadful experience at another local test centre. I have recommended Chappers to my biking friends and will hopefully be back myself some time for other certificates. Thank you so much Paul and Polly :)

Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend Polly and Paul for anyone wanting to learn to ride a motorbike or improve their skills. My stepson and I undertook their one-day CBT course last week. The trainers were extremely knowledgable, professional and friendly. The course was very well structured and the guidance and instruction was easy to understand and, in the case of my stepson, easy to apply! I will be back for further training in the near future.

Fantastic experience: Just wanted to say a massive massive thank you !!!!!! to Paul and Polly for the amazing training and absolute fantastic service throughout my experience with chappers . They were brilliant all the way through. I passed first time module one module two so now I can ride a big bike. If I didn’t know what I was looking for or who to look for in Herefordshire or surrounding areas, I would 100% go with choppers if I was wanting to learn how to ride. The bikes and kit , they use are top-notch and has changed the way I think about which bike to buy for my first one . Once again Thankyou !!!!!!!!!! Wooop wooop !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Friendly, helpful instructors. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great people doing the training and the pricing is affordable as well, always the best equipment and honest training

Fantastic experience: Received my CBT from Chappers this week. I'm a complete novice and by the end of the day I had the confidence to take on the road ride as the training during the day was very well delivered. Both instructors (Ian and Paul) were great, very light-hearted which was great to settle any nerves. However they were not cutting any corners and made it very clear that they expect you to listen and learn before they take you out on the road. The whole day was well organised, they were out to greet us promptly at 8am and kept us engaged until we finished just after 4pm. What was a long day felt like a breeze in all honesty. I would highly recommend them for any training, the bikes were new and well kept and they provided any gear required. I will definitely be in touch with them for further training. All in all a great experience.

Fantastic experience: Cannot reccomend paul and polly enough for any motorcycle training..they helped me complete my training with a mod 2 pass today. They are friendly, professional and excellent instructors...make the most nervous riders feel at ease.

Fantastic experience: Sooooo where to begin? Formerly holding an A2 licence, I needed to start my journey again. Both Happy Chappy and Polly were fantastic; great attention to detail, great communication and always keeping the new riders safety/interests at heart. Being a former licence holder I was worried about feeling ridiculed, and like I was starting from scratch. Chappers motorcycle training unknowingly boosted my confidence and completely destroyed my former anxieties. I enjoyed every minute of my CBT and hand on heart would advise any person who is worried (whether they are new riders, former riders or parents of riders) to consider them to safely complete any aspect of riding. I couldn't be happier. Thank you to Chaps and Polly

Fantastic experience: Very good,learned a lot staff very helpful

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic people, very helpful, professional, patient and explained everything in plain English, very highly recommended,

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking to get the bike on the road then you couldn’t ask for betters trainers! Passed mod1&2 with Chappers! Such a friendly duo and so Knowledgeable about bikes and whats best to get you on the road. I know of at least 5 people who have passed/training with Chappers who are all loving it! Cheers Chappers!

Fantastic experience: Great instructors! Did my cbt with these and loved it! Nice and relaxed approach to the training with great instruction!

Fantastic experience: Myself and a friend completed our CBTs with Chappers a few days ago and since then I've been recommending them to everyone! I arrived on the day feeling very nervous having not ridden for about 9 years and having a few bad experiences, Paul and Polly were extremely reassuring and I felt very comfortable to share my concerns with them. The yard work was very well organised in a large space and feedback was regularly given. The classroom based sections were kept interesting and conversations were had rather than being lectured. The road ride was my main concern but Polly was very patient and kind while also making sure that she was pushing me so I could realise my abilities. The two way communication was really helpful as it allowed us to ask questions as well as Polly giving instructions and guidance. I came away feeling very confident and actually enjoying riding and since passing I've been out on my bike constantly and that's purely down to their teaching. Would recommend to anyone and will for sure be back to do whatever training the future might hold! Thanks so much both!!!

Fantastic experience: Went to Chappers after reading other reviews, best decision ever! Polly & Paul are professional, friendly and above all eager to make sure you have the right training and skills to stay safe. It is clear they both enjoy their work and teaching riders of all abilities. Really enjoyed my lessons and cracked my slow riding as well as having a few laughs. Great experience, totally recommend to anyone thinking of learning to ride properly!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, very helpful - especially for a first time learner. Helped build my confidence and guide me with any mistakes I was making. Would recommend!

Fantastic experience: A huge thank you to Paul & Polly for fitting me in last week for the mod 2 training and test. They were both patient and helpful on our rides and helped build my confidence to pass first time!

Fantastic experience: Polly and Paul were excellent instructors and extremely patient and helpful can't fault them and will highly recommend to anyone who ask me about training in the future

Fantastic experience: Fantastic instructors, super friendly and knowledgeable and allow you to go at your own pace. They fully explain everything and make it easy to understand. And one of the biggest things for me is that they inspire confidence. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get their CBT or full bike licence.

Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with Polly & Paul and had a great day. Both Polly & Paul are super friendly, patient and motivating. If you are looking for any motorcycle training then these are the people to go to, don’t go anywhere else. Will definitely be going back to do my A licence with them.

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend enough! These guys know what they’re doing! I went to Chappers after having my CBT and theory for about a year and a half and I wanted to complete my Direct Access. They assessed my riding and throughout the sessions they would train the areas of my riding that needed work. After only a few sessions I passed the Mod 1 and Mod 2 first time as a CBT rider! They are also extremely passionate about making sure the riders are safe and respectful road users. They aren’t helping you pass a test, they’re teaching you how to use a bike so you are confident and safe. That is what will pass the test. If you want to pass you test and feel good in your riding, you need Polly and Paul. Thanks guys

Fantastic experience: Very experienced and knowledgeable instructors making the cbt course a really nice and smooth experience for a new rider

Fantastic experience: Recently completed my CBT and both Polly and Paul were brilliant. Both very patient, helpful and fun. It was a great learning experience. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Paul and Polly enough! Excellent training and lovely people.

Fantastic experience: From CBT through to getting a full licence I cannot fault Paul and Polly, would recommend them every time.

Fantastic experience: Never rode a bike before but they were amazing and patient. Did my cbt with them and couldn't have wished for any better instructors

Fantastic experience: Completed my full motorbike licence today using chappers motorcycles, couldn’t recommend them enough, very good instructors very helpful and friendly, get booked in guys

Fantastic experience: Start to finish faultless training, helping me to gain my full bike license at 40! From their local pad to the Mod1 training on site in Gloucester, to prepping me for Mod2. Paul and Polly were professional, knowledgeable and patient throughout, ironing out my weaknesses and building my confidence. I can't recommend highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend them. Very professional and friendly

Fantastic experience: Quality training. Completed my CBT with Polly today and loved it. I had ridden before and the other fella on the course hadn’t. Polly balanced this perfectly, making sure we both received relevant training and also making the day fun. Thoroughly enjoyed the day and will certainly be returning to Chappers when I do my Mod 1 and Mod 2.

Fantastic experience: Mark here, just thought I'd pop on here and give my recommendation for Chappers. Their directions to the site were spot on and I found the location easily even though I'm not too familiar with Hereford. On arrival I was greeted like an old friend and offered a brew right away which is the only proper way to greet an Englishman. I was in a group of four learners for the day.Paul and Polly made the effort to make all fourof us feel very welcome. Both Paul and Polly were very patient with us and took the time to talk us through where we were going wrong and how to improve. The erea where we were practicing seemed small at first glance but I was soon put at ease when all four of us where riding around with plenty of space. I can't thank polly and Paul enough for helping me get back on two wheels. Thoroughly enjoyable day and even learned some new things even though I have been driving for well over 20 years. Once again I highly recommend chappers Motorcycle Training. Thanks guys, you are both diamonds.

Fantastic experience: Top class riding school. Both Paul and Polly are extremely knowledgeable and will expertly train you to pass the tests as well as being a safe rider beyond the tests. I passed my mod 1 and 2 first time with them. Couldn’t recommend a better place. 10/10

Fantastic experience: Have just completed my direct access with Paul and Polly. Would highly recommend to anyone. Both great people and very knowledgeable instructors. They take their time and make sure you are ready for the test, safe and competent at riding the motorcycle. Giving you confidence going into both tests.

Fantastic experience: Booked my 2nd CBT for Scooter with Paul and Polly and instantly made me feel at ease. Theroy,safety,clothing all covered, on to maintenance and controls. All done at a understandable speed,no question to silly. On to yard work all CBT requirements,emergency stop,positioning at junctions, U turns and more. Then out and about around hereford ,good intercom system. Felt safe and enjoyed the whole experience, plan to book lesson and pursue next step on to 125 bike. Thankyou

Fantastic experience: Paul and Polly are absolutely brilliant instructors they are both very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. If you follow their instruction you WILL pass your test. All three students passed today and we were all buzzing! thank you both again.

Fantastic experience: If you want to do your cbt or full bike licence I would 100% chose chappers motorcycle training!! Absolutey amazing team, would recommend highly!

Fantastic experience: Big thank you to Paul and Polly!!.... both were excellent and very professional throughout. Felt completely at ease from start to finish, I would recommend these guys to anyone. Well done Chappers!

Fantastic experience: These guys were excellent today, no stress we were shown and explained to extremely well. They made it such an enjoyable assessment. Many thanks guys. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Grate day, very helpful and gave me the best information to move on from CBT to full motorcycle licence, so it doesn't cost me the earth. Very happy bunny.

Fantastic experience: Big thanks to Paul and Polly for best motorcycle training I could get. Professional training from CBT to pass MOD1&2. I would absolutely recommend them to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Gained my A2 licence with Chappers and I can’t fault them one bit. Great people and great instructors who not only teach you how to pass your test but to also ride a motorbike properly. I highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: Booked in to do my CBT and Can't recommend pual and Polly enough. The whole day was fun and educational and professional . There was no pressure . And a very relaxed day . Once finishing my CBT I immediately booked in for my lessons and mod 1 & 2 test .thank u guys for a brilliant day and looking forward to coming back and completing the tests

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Polly and Paul for my training. From start to finish they were there every step of the way from CBT to completing my mod 2. Good laugh and will catch up with you guys soon. Thanks.

Fantastic experience: Really good tailored CBT training. Very friendly and knowledgeable instructors. Highly recommend

Negative experience: rude for no reason and impatient, did not feel comfortable in their care, would travel out of hereford just to avoid.

Negative experience: We were very disappointed with our treatment at our CBT exam today. From ill fitting gear to a very small training ground and a general lack of care or consideration for our health or wellbeing. We were both very shocked when it was suggested we have illegal ridden our bikes beforehand to get a feel of them, as-well as our examiner being okay with us going on the bikes wearing jackets which did not fit correctly nor were fit to protect us fully. It was shocking how small the car park was, and generally felt extremely unsafe having more than one bike riding in such a small space. The communication from our instructor was often back handed and rude, as-well-as generally unhelpful information and advice which seemed more like a lack of useful skills from their part. Instead of being properly taught how to balance the weight of the bike while doing tight manoeuvres, whether that be from steering control or weight shifting, we were instead told to just 'Look Where We Want To Go' which is not helpful advice in regards to steering. I ended up having an allergic reaction and vomiting, as well as having a panic attack during my exam, which of course was no fault of the instructor, but they lacked any first aid skills or empathy as to what was happening. I stopped many times to try and explain that I felt unwell, but was just told to carry on going in circles, which is of course not something you want to be doing while feeling extremely sick. I felt so pressured to keep going that i ended up having a panic attack, to which the instructor did not seem to care nor be worried about in the slightest. There was not any jackets nor gloves which fit to a degree that was safe, and in the unfortunate case we had crashed, would not have protected us at all. When I mentioned to the instructor that it was too big, they shrugged it off and said 'It'll do, they're often too big'. The fitted shielding inside the jacket was so big and ill fitting it hindered the range of movement in the arms which is of course a huge hazard. The appropriate and safe response from this situation would have been "We are sorry we don't have any gear in your sizing, we can re-arrange the CBT and you can bring in your own if that suits you" but instead they seemed to care more about a quick cash grab than the safety of their students. Both being quite small, I even sent an email beforehand stating our sizing as well as heights, and it was not brought up to me that not having correct gear would be an issue. We were also not given a 20 Meter Number Plate reading Eye Exam, which is a compulsory measure by the DVLA before training. I even mentioned that I usually wear glasses to try to jog the instructors memory incase it was an honest mistake but no eyesight test followed. The instructors were incredibly rude about us being unable to find the training centre, despite there not being any signs for it, and their google photo for it being of the outside of a house 5 minutes away. When this was brought up, and suggested to be amended, we were harshly told to 'Not look at our phones, and if we had used our eyes we would find it' Despite never visiting this area of the city before nor being able to visibly see the centre from the outside as it was behind a football club. There was no greeting, no 'nice to see you' or 'how are you feeling about today' and one of the first verbal interactions between student and instructor was asking for payment. Even if we did not have to leave early due to medical emergency, We would have absolutely not felt safe continuing the training as there was no regards for our safety or concern. After stating these concerns we did receive a refund, but would still not recommend this company unless you know how to do everything and don't actually need training

Fantastic experience: My daughter had her CBT today. She was very nervous but by the end of the day she was smiling, happy and confident on the roads! Also most importantly telling me how to keep herself safe while driving. Thank you very much . We highly recommend chappers.

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructors both paul and polly really care about what they are teaching. From day one they tailored the package to suit me instead of just doing a generic standard course/ learning. They really instill confidence in you as a rider early on and definitely give off the atmosphere of not just teaching you to pass a test, they teach you to be comfortable and good on the bikes your learning on! Having never even sat on a bike before to acheiving a direct access pass of everything in under a week these guys are spot on!! and dont mess around! Anyone interested in learning to actually ride any type of bike and not just pass a test, these 100% are who you NEED to go too. Thanks again for everything paul and polly! Much apriciated guys, and thank you

Fantastic experience: Great communication leading up to the day of my CBT, fantastic instructors very informative and made me feel comfortable all day I cannot recommend them enough 5 stars is not enough. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Had my CBT renewal day recently. Polly was such a good instructor, A perfect balance of highlighting your strengths and caution on your difficulties. The course was sculptured perfectly to suit beginer and also fine tune anyone with previous experience. Even if you're not advancing to bigger bikes this course is still a necessary. There was more important detail that was not covered on my previous course with another school. Thanks so much for a great day.

Fantastic experience: Done my cbt with Polly. She is amazing she made me feel safe, confident and she is very helpful, friendly and patient. 110% Recommend Thanks so much

Fantastic experience: Great company to do your MOD1&2 with. Paul and Polly know their stuff and enabled me to pass both parts with minimal minors. The difference in my riding from the first lesson to the test is phenomenal. Book with confidence.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic day doing my CBT despite the heat. Clear concise and confident instruction with the lovely Polly. Highly recommended. Update: Went back for my full license and again couldn't be happier, passed both the MODs first time thanks to Pauls excellent tuition. I think I probably rode 400 miles over the 5 days on a fantastic SV-650, including going down to Gloucester before the MOD 1 for some mock tests and practise on the actual site which was amazingly helpful. If you are in the Hereford area and want to learn to ride a motorbike then do yourself a favour and just go with Chappers, you wont regret it.

Fantastic experience: Don’t know where to start about Polly and Paul, honestly the most kindest and caring people I have ever met. I’m a very anxious person and they let me come in a couple of weeks before my CBT to have a look at the bike and have a go. They were both so supportive during the process and I’m glad I got to do my CBT with Polly on a ride around. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else to learn to ride a bike! Hopefully see you soon for the big bike test

Fantastic experience: Fantastic instruction during my CBT. Will definitely be coming back for my direct access course! Cannot recommend highly enough!!

Fantastic experience: Great training i Felt so much more Comfortable on a bike after a days Riding with Paul Chappers. Couldn’t have passed my test without him . Massive thank you. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Just done my CBT with Polly what a lovely lady would recommend chappers 5* thank you Polly and see you soon for my big license

Fantastic experience: The friendliest but most professional experience I could've hoped for. Polly and Paul do everything that they can to make sure you're prepared, confident and comfortable when doing the MOD1 and MOD2, They keep the training simple and clear, and during the test I had their voices in my mind, which likely helped me pass. I would absolutely recommend them to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with Polly. Had a wonderful day and passed so that's a bonus ;). Thankyou for getting me back in the road again!

Fantastic experience: Excellent course, enjoyable, informative and with the desired effect of completing it a better and wiser rider. Polly and Chappers are lovely people who genuinely care about producing safe riders with knowledge and good humour. Thank you so much, I’ll be back when I’m ready to move on to geared riding.

Fantastic experience: Excellent Motorcycle Training, extremely Friendly and welcoming. Always something to learn no matter what level of experience you have. Looking forward to doing my next test with you.

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Chappers enough. The CBT can be challenging if you're new to motorcycling (as I was), but I was never out of my comfort zone and finished the day feeling safe on the bike, competent, and just the right kind of confident.

Fantastic experience: Polly and Chappers are literally the best! I cannot praise them highly enough. I passed my CBT with another firm in South Hereford and found the instruction to be wooden and frankly tedious. So for my mod 1&2 I tried Chappers Motorcycle Training. From the first call right through to passing my (full cat A license) they were amazing. The epitome of professionalism and charming with it. The instruction was first class and thoughtful (bearing in mind I had 20 odd years of bad habits from riding my scooter in London, to get rid of). Their equipment and the bike they lent to me was excellent and the whole process was taken care of quickly, efficiently and represented great value for money too. Many many thanks to you both for you time, effort and the super early mornings…

Fantastic experience: Great day doing my cbt with Polly today, I was a little apprehensive as it’s 30 years since I got on a motorcycle. Polly made me feel relaxed and got my confidence up to a level where I really enjoyed the ride out. Thank you, look forward to progressing with your assistance in the future. Mark

Fantastic experience: polly and paul brilliant instructors! passed mod 1 and mod 2 first time! will be recommending to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly people , had an enjoyable day.Many thanks.
