C&A Motorcycle Training: Reviews
Negative experience: My wife took her first CBT with these guys. She was doing the yard work in her words OK, not stalling the bike... Making the turns. He didn't take her out on the road or invite her back and she was actually told to go and ride around field... (it's now put her off motorcycling)
Thanks for taking the time for the feedback Vinnie. We listen to all our feedback and use it to improve where we can. Our records of the day you describe show that your wife was struggling to gain safe and full control of a geared bike and as the day moved on and the struggles grew, she found it hard to deal with these pressures. The Instructor did suggest she try an automatic bike, in order to simplify her need for control and to relieve the pressure she was undoubtedly feeling, with the potential to then return to a geared bike once her confidence was back. Your wife declined this option, continued as before to the point she and the Instructor discussed if it was likely for her to complete the CBT that day. Whilst the Instructor offered to take the time to continue to train her, she declined and decided on her own to leave at that point. The Instructor advised she would benefit from riding her own geared bike in a private area (so it was legal) to gain confidence in handling a geared bike so as to be able to return and finish the CBT. We at C&A Motorcycle Training strive to get everyone to the standard required to be safe on the road and not a risk to themselves or other road users. As can be seen by the rest of our feedback here, we have a reputation for working well with our clients and getting great results. Our ambition at the start of every CBT day is the same as that of our clients, to have them take away a valid CBT certificate and we use whatever resources we have to try and make that happen. We would welcome your wife back to continue her training with us once she has a little more confidence in her own skills on 2 wheels and we would be happy to discuss this directly with her.
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience great instructor made the whole day a an enjoyable time knowledgeable helpful took the time to explain everything in a relaxed atmosphere learnt great deal more than I expected
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Brilliant from start to finish! I was nervous about doing my geared CBT but Chris very quickly put me at ease and taught me everything I needed to know. Very clear and concise instructions and guidance in a friendly manner. Really nice atmosphere at the training centre - chatted with other customers who were with other trainers doing their DAS. They were quick to say how impressed they were with the training and to encourage me to do my DAS. Would absolutely recommend C&A - even if you're nervous about getting on a bike, you'll be in safe hands. Thank you :-)
Thank you Alex.
Fantastic experience: Legends I wanted to do Direct access full category a licence after not riding for 10 years. These guys are above an beyond professional they Planned organised trained and got me though both mod 1 an mod 2 tests first time started my training with Steve an finished with Richard with bespoke training to suit individual requirements. If your thinking of doing your bike licence These guys are the best in the Area. Cheers guys
Thank you Robert appreciate your review. Richard
Fantastic experience: Done my CBT with these guys, first class instructors! Very informative, very easy to learn from and get along with, would highly recommend. Very well organised, had very good communication and had lots of tips for future reference.
Excellent happy to hear that, thank you
Fantastic experience: Amazing day today spent out on the Bikes with Chris doing my CBT. Awesome site, great sectioned off area to train before hitting the road. All training tailored to the student. A real school that doesnt just hand out an attendance certificate. If you want to be safe and prepared use these guys and earn your CBT. Will be back to complete my DAS. 100% reccommend.
Thank you, appreciate your comments
Fantastic experience: Today I’ve done my CBT here with Graham, I’ve been nervous at first but Graham made me feel really good during my CBT. Totally recommend I’ll be definitely doing my full licence here. Thank you so much and huge thanks to Graham
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Absolutely incredible place to learn to ride. Just done my CBT and will definitely be doing my DAS with them. Could not say a bad thing.
Thank you Joe appreciated
Fantastic experience: The best training providers in town. Got all necessary skills to ride a motorcycle, passed my mod 2 without concerns. Highly recommended and worth every penny. All lessons are 1 to 1,so no mess about. Proper school Special and massive THANKS to Richard, TOP MAN!
Thank you, it was our pleasure to help.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic training! Passed first time with zero minors, would not recommend anyone else! The prices may be a little higher but it is 1 on 1 training (most places it’s 2 per instructor) gave me all the guidance I needed to be a brilliant rider! Cost me around £900 for everything
Thank you Dylan. Ride safe
Fantastic experience: Passed my mod 2 today 3 days before my 60th birthday, I cannot thank Richard and Steve enough, I came in with them with my confidence shattered and in the first lesson with Richard I was enjoying riding again as he put me back together after a bad experience with another riding school, then Steve took over and upped my skills and enjoyment for my mod 1. Richard then took me for my mod 2 which I passed first time. They have an instructor to suit everyone and will match you up perfectly. These guys are the real deal, they don't just chuck you through to pass a test they make sure you are a good and safe rider. I can't recommend them highly enough.
Thanks Haley our pleasure in helping you with your journey.
Fantastic experience: Booking over the phone was very easy, the guys explained everything that I needed to bring. The staff are very professional, also great to have a laugh and a joke with. The course covered everything you need to know regarding maintenance of the bike, basics on how to ride, the theory and lastly the 2hr ride on the road. I was nervous about going on the roads but I felt safe with the instructors riding with me. Couldn’t recommend a better place to get your cbt done. Thanks guys.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Took my CBT here and the experience was great. every test was done professionally, our instructor was very knowledgeable and friendly which helped calm my worries as I was a little nervous about when we go out on the roads.
Thanks Ashley I will pass this on to Chris
Fantastic experience: Extremely happy brilliant instructor Chris, hats off to you couldn't ask for a better day,
Thank you I will pass your comments to Chris
Fantastic experience: Superb training center. I took my CBT and full motorbike license at C&A and would recommend them very highly. Very patient instructors and took me from 0 experience on bikes to passing my tests.
Thank Tom appreciated
Positive experience: Today I had my cbt with Chris, I am a very nervous 51 year old who hasn't ridden for years. I was that nervous I nearly didn't turn up! I'm glad I did turn up. Chris made me settle very quickly and was an amazing, patient trainer. He didn't make me feel silly if I went wrong, just encouraged me for next time. Without a doubt I would recommend C&A to anybody that wanted to do their CBT or bike test. Absolutely amazing company and people. See you soon for my big girls bike lessons that's how confident you made me feel
Thank you I will pass this to chris
Fantastic experience: I started my motorcycle journey with these guys back in 2016 for my first CBT up untill my final test this year in 2022 for my full A licence. If i hadn't have stuck with this company throughout and taken in all the advice and riding tips, i wouldn't be in a position today where i feel absolutely confident on anything 2 wheels. Nothing but praise for this team and appreciation for guiding me through. I recommend this company to anyone i speak to that is getting into or levelling up their motorcycle licence, and will continue to do so. Fantastic company and brilliant people to train you the right way!
Our pleasure Connor, Enjoy
Fantastic experience: Great people very friendly, helpful and professional
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Took my CBT here and the experience was amazing. All the elements of the test was done professionally, our instructor was very knowledgeable and friendly which helped calm my worries as I was a little nervous about the last element when we go out on the roads. Throughout the time we was going to Downham Market the instructor made me feel calm as he made me feel confident in how I was driving and taking the lead at my own pace, so I didn’t feel like I was being pressured by other drivers that were behind me.
Thank you Grace.
Fantastic experience: My 16yr old son did his cbt on Saturday with Richard, my son has ADHD and he was amazing with him. Mason came out buzzing. Thank you so much.
Your welcome, thank you
Fantastic experience: I had a motorbike lesson from these guys, and I found them very professional, very helpful and the bikes they use are to a high standard. Do rate these for anyone one wishing to start motorbike lessons.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend, excellent training provided
Thanks Daniel appreciated
Fantastic experience: Amazing place, briiant instructors 100% would recommend to anyone
Thank you, it's appreciated
Fantastic experience: Thanks for your fantastic training and help to get me my full bike license. When I was struggling and losing confidence your trainers patience and help got me through it. The bike I used was comfortable and great. I can’t praise you guys enough
Thank you Tim, enjoy your bike.
Fantastic experience: Feeling a little apprehensive about how the day would unfold, I was happy to have my worries calmed by Jack our instructor for the day. He put us at ease with confident reassurance, and made sure we were clear on the key points, before moving on. Observing us closely, any potential obstacles to our progress were quickly identified and remedied. This all made for a productive, informative CBT course, one that was successful and enjoyable in equal measure. I would highly recommend C&A Motorcycle Training, whether you're an inexperienced novice starting out or a motorcycle petrol head wanting to further their bike riding skills. You won't regret it.
Thank you Michael
Fantastic experience: Did CBT there, well organised, good instructors, good bikes
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I had Jack today for my 125cc cbt, I couldn't of asked for anyone better, he made sure I knew what I needed to, never at any point did I feel rushed or uneasy, very very easy guys to talk to had a real laugh 100% recommend these guys,
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I was really impressed by how calm and knowledgeable our trainer (Chris) was, especially since I was quite nervous. He successfully took us through our CBT test and answered all of our questions. I wish we'd been given the heads up that a packed lunch was necessary, but other than that, I could not recommend them enough.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I used these guys to retake my cbt at the start of June (sorry its taken so long to post my review) they were amazing. My instructor Chris was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. In the time I've been riding after my time with Chris I've never felt safer on the roads. Highly reccomend to anyone that needs to do any form of motorcycle training
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Passed my cbt yesterday and had a great time, Jack was a great instructor very funny and very patient, would 100% recommend to anyone!!
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I had a brilliant time with instructor Jack while undertaking my CBT at C&A Motorcycle Training. I cannot recommend him enough - extremely knowledgeable, thorough with his teachings as well as keeping it light-hearted and jovial. I would strongly suggest you request lessons/trainings with him. All the other staff I interacted with there were also very pleasant.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Great day , my son had Jack and he was such a good instructor for the CBT training the best instructor for miles. Thank you Will come back one to do his A Licence with C & A ,Motorcycle Training.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: The guys at C&A are brilliant, they don't rush you or put pressure on you. The training that they give you is first class. Would definitely recommend
Thank you Scott
Fantastic experience: Absolutely incredible experience working with these guys to help me secure my Mod 1 & 2 direct access. Very friendly, kind and encouraging trainers. Made me feel relaxed providing me with superb tuition. Their bikes are well maintained and are in perfect condition (not something all riding schools achieve). Highly recommend anyone to jump into rider training confidently with these guys! :)
Thank you, our pleasure
Fantastic experience: Brilliant, perfect training, really nice people the trainers are 100% recommended to a new cbt ped Lerner
Thank you, I will pass your comments to you instructor, Jack.
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with Jack & Chris at C&A after they were recommended by a friend, fantastic experience, very friendly and makes you feel at ease ( Jack's a character in himself ) I would highly recommend C&A motorcycle training to anyone looking to learn how to ride a bike.
Thank you.
Fantastic experience: We attended for a days CBT training at C&A. Our instructor Chris was fantastic. We were welcomed onsite and had a quick tour. The classroom based stuff was concise and well presented, and Chris made it relevant to our personal circumstances and aims. Out on the concrete pad we were introduced to the mopeds in a gentle way (being fairly nervous clients!) and the day was definitely tailored to our individual needs. We had loads of fun trying out a variety of skills. The pad has road markings set up for practice before the real thing. After a break for lunch we headed out on the road, radioed up to the instructor which was incredibly helpful. Chris talked us through the road layout, pointed out the road signs and how we could respond to them. All round great day, and our nerves were calmed the entire time by the professionalism and personal tailoring of the course. Will definitely be back to C&A in the future! Thanks Chris and thanks Richard for allowing us to come along on the date we did!
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Fantastic instructors, all very knowledgeable and a good laugh! Thanks very much
Our pleasure
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended, knowledgeable, up to date training. Nice facilities, really enjoyable instructors. I can honestly say now I've passed my test I feel really safe on the road. My training wasn't just to get through the test but build experience, confidence and knowledge. Fully intend to return to do the enhanced rider training in the future.
Thanks for your thoughts, enjoy your ride.
Fantastic experience: Phenomenal instructors, they really do go the extra mile for their pupils, they helped me pass both my mod 1 and mod 2, all within 4 weeks.
Our pleasure, great to see the excitement and your smile well done.
Fantastic experience: I passed my cbt last Wednesday, I would 1000% recommend this to anyone who wants to do their cbt. Jack was a great instructor. Thank you guys for the great experience
Your welcome, thank you
Fantastic experience: Had an awesome day today, all the guys are brilliant. Jack was fantastic as a tutor and Richard and Steve were fab too. Helped settle my nerves, full of laughs and found my confidence to ride. Great fun and looking forward to coming back!
Excellent. Thank you
Negative experience: Where to start! Did my CBT here had fun and learnt a few things overall good day. This is where it starts to go down hill, I booked in for some lessons to work towards my A license, first lesson went well no problems apart from not getting the 3 hours bike lesson you pay for you spend 20 mins sitting in a cafe with a coffee! Lesson ended with me booking another as was eager to get my test done, this lesson didn’t go so well, I was sent out on a bike that was not safe to be ridden despite saying twice that the bike didn’t feel or sound right I was told to carry on until eventually the instructor heard the noise, we headed back for what I thought would be to swap bikes but no, They tried to fix it in my lesson time (40 mins) of the time I had paid for wasted with not even a sorry or offered a partial refund. I foolishly booked another lesson which again was appalling 15 mins in the comms unit failed due to a flat battery so we had to head back and change it, another 20 mins in and the second comms unit fails to stay connected to the instructor so we head back again, 3rd time lucky hey? No not at all 3rd unit has the worst screeching noise in my ear ever I was then told to head back for a 4th time to be told I don’t have any more comms units so I’ll have to owe you half hour!! I spent 2 hours out on the bike to get no further than the town centre each time! Between tests I was asking for a mod 1 and 2 date to be told there are no tests available and that I wasn’t ready, but they are more than happy to take my money for a mod 1 practice at the Dvsa site even though no tests were available!! Needless to say I was more than frustrated so I found a new instructor who was amazing her name is Louise from Middas bike training ah took me out once and said I was ready let’s get your test booked so 3 weeks after ditching C&A bike training I have my full bike license with mod 1 and 2 passed first time within 5 days of each other!! All C&A were interested in was getting my money they make you pay for the lesson before you start and charge you for 3 hours that you don’t get. Don’t get ripped off and look elsewhere......
First off, congratulations on passing your test. It’s the passion of C&A Motorcycle training and most other schools to develop clients to ride motorcycles and enjoy them safely. We hope that the training you had with us set you up for the remaining training you had. Also thanks for saying you found our CBT training so good. Thanks also for the feedback. We are keen to receive client feedback – even if it’s not great - so that we continue to stay ahead of the competition. That’s borne out by the other ratings we receive on Google and on our Facebook page @candamotorcycletraining A couple of responses to two points raised. The short coffee breaks we take during a 3 hour DAS lesson has two purposes: to give clients’ brains the opportunity to rest for a bit and digest what they have learnt so far: also to debrief progress partway through the ride, to make the most of the remaining time in that lesson. If that didn’t come across, that’s a shame. With the availability of tests (Mod 1 and Mod 2) we were at the mercy of DVSA since they restarted after the CV19 restriction. Tests were rationed and some schools were getting tests while others weren’t. That would account for why we couldn’t fit you in. We are pleased to say that that time has passed and we now have a full complement of both Mod 1 and Mod 2 tests available. Should you wish to develop your riding skills further now you have your full licence, remember we are one of the few schools around that offer the DVSA Enhanced Rider Scheme training, which is tailored to each client’s requirements and we would be pleased to see you back to take your riding skills to the next level.
Fantastic experience: Hi all! In my opinion, this is the best riding school out there. Friendly and very patient's instructors, really professional way of training. Focused on all aspects specially safety. They will teach you not only how to pass your test, but more importantly they will prepare you on how to ride safely. I had no previous experience on motorcycle, and today I feel more and more confident with every ride using all what I was taught. Massive Thank You to all instructors.
Thank you, I will pass this onto everyone
Fantastic experience: Completed my cbt today! Had Jack train me and another lady. He was very nice, got on well and had some laughs. He was happy to let us have a break every now and again when we asked and explained things clearly. Top chap and would highly recommend. Thank you very much!!
Many thanks will pass this on to him
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing tutors, worth the hours travel each lesson, nice bikes to ride and very competitive prices, cant fault them one bit
Many thanks
Fantastic experience: Amazing people has loads of fun learning with them recommend to anyone who's thinking of going here
Many thanks for your review
Fantastic experience: Excellent training services. Had Wayne for CBT today top bloke and very helpful with all aspects. Highly recommend
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I did my cbt with these guys had a good day, enjoyed the training, all on good well maintained bikes. thanks
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: Great guys, professional and genuinely care about your safety as well as making sure you are prepared for the road. I will be going back to do my full bike licence in the future with them.
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: Wayne was brilliant on the CBT and really helped us with our slow speed handling skills which needed work. Couldn't recommend C and A highly enough!
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: I'm pleased to have completed my CBT today and would recommend C&A if anyone's thinking of doing the same. The instructors are personable, knowledgeable and competent, the bikes are well maintained and the learning environment is second-to-none. The ratio of practical/theory is just right, and I even learnt a few things after driving for 13 years! Thanks guys, I'll be back for big bike training soon!
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed doing my CBT here and would 100% recommend to everyone. Thank you so much to Wayne who turned a nervous, complete beginner into a confident rider! I learnt so much and never once felt I was under pressure to learn quicker.
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: Did CBT with Wayne. Informative and helpful. No or dramas. Nice well maintained equipment and gear available.
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: Perfect day, clear instructions on my CBT I'm a bit deaf but I had no problem hearing what's going on, would recommend Wayne walked away as if we was mates!! Will be going for my big bike test with these they don't put you under pressure and make you nervous Five stars, Just an update have just passed my big bike test and a big thank you to Mark and Specially Richard as I was out 80% of the time with, terrific lads, very professional but very at ease. Just note Richard may seem picky, he isn't he just wants you riding to the the best of his knowledge and he basically wants you staying alive and being safe, in my eyes that called professional, these guys don't make you ok riders to pass they make you into great,safe and aware riders so you won't fail, 3 minors out of 15 in 2 tests what's that tell you and I only got my knowledge from them by listen,understanding and taking it in as I wasn't a biker rider, so hats off fellas nice training
Thank you for your review
Fantastic experience: This is an amazing place, nice and friendly trainers. It is also reasonably priced and weekends are available! I had a great time doing my CBT, the best place I have done my training (my third time passing it). I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
