Fantastic experience: Thank you so much Dan and Julian for helping me complete my cbt today. These guys are amazing at helping new learners achieve their goals and will teach you everything you need to know from start to finish to complete your test and I can add that they are really nice people and made it comfortable to ride with. Would really recommend anyone who is looking to do their bike test
Negative experience: After several phone calls and emails i never received a reply, therefore they have left me no choice but to leave this negative review. After paying £180 to complete the CBT, i never got to complete the course due to time restraints. I was in a group of 4 novice riders, not enough space for all to ride, time restraints meant that if the modules were not completed on time, you would not be able to go out and complete CBT on the road and would need to return paying anther £130. My partner completed his with just 2 riders on the course a week prior, Another friend also had the same problem as me with too many inexperienced riders, also running out of time. I believe that if there is more than 3 people booked on the course there is not sufficient time to practice the manoeuvres and complete the modules before taking the test. This is their way of insuring you return and having to depart with more money. Don't waste your time with these guys. After further research there are other companies in the area where you pay for the course even if you have to return for whatever reason there are no additional costs.
Fantastic experience: very good staff all nice and positive to students. dan was a major help definitely recommend it
Fantastic experience: Just completed my CBT today on a 125cc with instructor Dan. He was very helpful, knowledgeable and professional. Would recommend Riders and Dan for anyone looking to complete their CBT.
Fantastic experience: Dan and Julian are both great instructors, both very patient and helpful the whole way through no matter what level you're at. And they really make sure you're confident before moving on to the next step, which is great. Highly recommend them
