Fantastic experience: I had the most fun and enjoyable experience learning from Dave, completing both Mod 1 and Mod 2 for my full bike licence. He booked me in with short notice and we got the whole thing done in 5 days. Dave's 650cc bikes are easy to handle and well maintained. He is so calm, friendly, clearly experienced and certainly knows his stuff! Dave is genuinely invested in each and everyone of his students. I couldn't recommend a better instructor. He even introduced me to some other riders so we can go for a ride out together.
Thanks Emily you were a star pupil start to finish I hope to see you on your new bike next summer for ice cream trips to Belgium Ride safe
Fantastic experience: Dave is a very knowledgeable bike instructor and a nice chap as well. I passed my mod 1 and 2 thanks to his training, I would recommend if you're looking to get your motorbike licence
Thanks luke See you for a brew at the school one sunday
Fantastic experience: Would 100% recommend doing your big bike license with DG Rider Training. Dave was a great instructor with a friendly and knowledgable approach, making you feel confident, comfortable and capable of achieving everything you need to.
Thanks for your review Alice I look forward to seeing you on your own bike burning rubber !!
Fantastic experience: Navigating the complexities of the UK motorcycle tests can be daunting, but thanks to DGRiderTraining School, I successfully passed both Module 1 and Module 2. Dave, the instructor, is a true expert in breaking down the intricacies of these tests. His clear explanations not only helped me understand the rules and techniques required but also boosted my confidence. From mastering the maneuvers in Module 1 to navigating real-world scenarios in Module 2, Dave's guidance was invaluable. He ensured that I was fully prepared for every aspect of the tests, making the process much less intimidating. Dave's expertise, combined with the school's supportive environment, sets you up for success on the road. Highly recommended for anyone looking to embark on their motorcycle riding journey!
Thanks Naved I hope to see you soon at the school on your new bike and a ride out in the summer.
Fantastic experience: I got Dave’s number via a recommendation. Dave’s teaching methods were very composed and relaxed. He made sure he put me and other students at complete ease and this really helped me learn and build confidence. Riding round his local area there were so many people who raised hands to say hello to Dave, as I learned about many of his ex students. All of them had nothing but warm words. Through Dave’s help I Passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 first time round. I wholeheartedly recommend Dave as an instructor.
Thanks for the review honest I didn't pay any of those ex students that day
Fantastic experience: Recently had a 3 day full bike course with Dave. I would highly recommend his training courses, within such little time I started to feel comfortable on the bike. The training was explained well and instructed to a high standard making it easy to understand what was needed of each exercise. The bike that Dave provided was comfortable and easy to manoeuvre when learning each exercise. I would like to thank dave again for all he’s support and guidance on helping me pass both module 1 and 2 .
Pleasure shaun glad to have helped
Fantastic experience: Very patient and nice instructor, taking care of your driving skills and habits, always pushing you to the right way to PASS the tests. If you would like to get your full licence, I highly recomend Dave as your tutor-instructor
Thank you kindly and well done on a very deserved pass today !!
Fantastic experience: Did my training with Dave passed mod 1 and mod 2 first time. He’s not like the company’s out there who are just there for your money, he really does want you to pass and will help you get that licence.. Also the bike you you learn on (gladious650) lovely starting bike which is a big help to you getting the pass you want. So again DAVE thank you for your help - Wesley
Cheers Wesley, see you for ice cream in Belgium.
Fantastic experience: Dave is an experienced and friendly motorcycle instructor who excels at breaking down complex concepts into easy-to-understand steps. He's is chatty and charming guy who helped me to relax and pass my Mod1 and Mod2. With his guidance I gain confidence and competence on the road.
Thanks for you kind words Arnold, ride safe. I mite pay you a visit at work 1 day for a tour and lunch.
Fantastic experience: Dave is Great, what a lad.
Cheers Ben, ride safe !
Fantastic experience: Dave was absolutely remarkable at teaching me how to handle a big bike. Passed both mod 1 and 2 first time with little minors. Dave is quick to assess and advise how much training you’ll need with very competitive pricing. Each lesson was incredibly enjoyable, with the bikes being a pleasure to ride and very comfortable, he has one to suit taller riders too. Would highly recommend him straight away to anyone looking to get on a bigger bike and pass with flying colours!! Update as of 2023 - done my full A with Dave, returned with full confidence as I knew how good of an instructor he is. So two tests, 4 modules. Passed each one first time, if that doesn’t give you the confidence to go with Dave, I don’t know what will! Recommending him to all the bikers wanting to upgrade, I send them Dave’s way.
Cheers Jordan . See you on the dark side for ice cream run when the world gets back to normal I will organise some ride outs. Thanks once again Jordan great results for your tests and a big thanks for that special bottle of dingle malt.
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Dave highly enough. Both me and my partner went to Dave with no experience with big bikes and gears. We made some mistakes which knocked our confidence a bit but Dave was very patient and supported us all the way with encouragement and great advice. I am glad we chose Dave as our instructor and did not go to a big riding school, his approach is very flexible and tailored to the rider needs. We could not have asked for a better instructor, thank you!
Thank you El
Fantastic experience: I like Dave, a cheap and cheerful one-man band school with no nonsense. Good bikes with indicators alarm, heated grips and gear indicators. I got my license with a 3 days course when other schools recommended 5.
Thanks for the review, I'm a no nonsense guy to
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Dave. He helped my pass my CBT and then both mod 1 and 2. An excellent instructor who helps you feel at ease with riding and makes the whole training process an enjoyable experience. Definitely the place to go to if you want to learn to ride the big bikes :)
Thanks Ed for you kind words. Hopefully see you on an ice cream run next year to Belgium.
Fantastic experience: Very professional, flexible and always ready to help. Dave is hands down the best in the business. I trained with him for Mod 1 and Mod 2, and got my full licence thanks to dave. His patience, guidance and knowledge will lead you to become a competent and safe rider...
My students are pretty good too. Thanks for the review.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Dave, He got me through Mod 1 & 2 with zero faults, I had only been riding for 3 months on a 125cc, Dave pushed me and made me feel extremely confident very quickly on a larger powered bike. Very passionate about helping his students pass. So glad I went with DG rider training. Thank you so much Dave, will definitely recommend!!
Thanks josh for your kind words, stay safe and enjoy that new big bike I know your gonna get
Fantastic experience: Passed first time, no faults just because of Dave. He is a very patient instructor who takes time in explaining everything you have to do. Not just that, he is also a fun person with plenty of stories to tell. I totally recommend him.
Thanks Paul, good luck with the house move. Ride safe and enjoy
Fantastic experience: What can I say about Dave, absolutely fantastic instructor and a gent. Honestly don’t think I wouldn’t passed without his knowledge and easy to follow tips and tricks, he made things so simple and easy to follow. From the first day it felt like I was learning with an old friend which is exactly how it should be, 10/10 would recommend. Thank you dave
Cheers West, see you on the May day .
Fantastic experience: I have had an excellent experience with Dave. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole training. Dave is a great instructor on a professional and personal level. Thanks to his valuable tips and advices, I passed every stage of the test first time. I can highly recommend Dave to all who are looking for a professional motorbike training instructor.
Thank you for your kind words, summer fun at last.
Fantastic experience: The training was absolutely spot on, Dave is a really good instructor, very patient, very knowledgeable and he got me through both modules first time although I was very nervous . If your going to go with anyone I would 100% recommend DG rider training, you really get the feel that he wants you to pass and enjoy your bike, it’s not just about the license it’s a lifestyle.
Thanks for your kind words Paul, don't forget to collect your gloves I'm holding them for ransom
Fantastic experience: Thanks to the fantastic training from Dave I got through my motorcycle tests. His advice , motivation and support is first class. Thanks again Dave , you are one of the good guys.
Thanks Ian, you just need a bike now but at least you proved to the guts in the pub you could do it
Fantastic experience: David has given me invaluable experience on a ‘bike bike’, having used both mopeds and manual 125cc bikes for several years. He is extremely calm and knowledgable, and only wants the best for any rider under his tuition. For the sake of SE London and Kent students, lets hope he doesn't retire in a few years!
Here's Alex just the mod2 to go, as I say to all big bikes are safer
Fantastic experience: ‘Look no further’. I always wanted to do my full motorbike license but after a couple of accident on 125cc it put me off. Finally Have to take the plunge. Found Dave on google search which luckily just lived around the corner. Dave was very calm, professional and takes his time to teach you and make you feel relax in every situation. No short cut here and if you want to learn, ‘look no further’ Dave is your man for the job. Thank you mate.
Thanks Emmanuel hope you can join us on an ice cream run to Belgium once the world is better.
Fantastic experience: I didn't have any experience on a bike except from a moped when I was 15... David took time to explain and is a great teacher, as a result I pass both my mod 1 and mod 2 the first time! Can't recommend him enough! Hopefully we can go for some Belgian ice cream in the near future!
Haha you know your invited for ice cream when we can travel again
Fantastic experience: Dave is a top bloke. Had a great few days with him doing the training for Mod 1 and 2. Very helpful and learnt so much. Even tho I've been riding 6 years there was a few bad habits I had. He changed them straight away. daves a good laugh and keeps you feeling positive and confident when Going to do your tests . I highly recommend him. Dan Reynolds
Fantastic experience: I am an older rider and haven't been on a bike for 30 years Had a bit of a horrific experience with phoenix driving school which is a bit of a factory just churning people through. So after reading the reviews choose dgrider to try again. Dave is a top guy,he is knows everything and teaches it to you well. I failed my mod 1 but he doesn't book your test till following week so you don't loose your money. He got me through mod1 and mod 2 which he does in Tonbridge Wells which is great not much traffic no massive roundabouts..Also I had to have more lessons and he didn't rip me off just paid very cheap extra day.Thanks again Dave..really really recommend him 5 stars
Thanks Andrew, hope your doing well on your new bike. Don't forget to join us on a fish n chip run soon.
Fantastic experience: From start to finish the training has been top notch. I had never ridden before and sufficient time was taken to allow me to feel confident and progress and gain skills to ride a bike, not just to pass the tests. I recommend anyone to use Dave to get trained up. Even if you have to travel for it, it's definitely worth it.
Fantastic experience: Been driving a 125 for ages until finally deciding give the full license a go - and I was very lucky to be recommended to Dave for my full training riding! Dave was super patient with me and my struggles to master some of the mod 1 manoeuvres and in all fairness - I would have probably quit having to had any other trainer! Regardless of your experience I will def recommend giving Dave a call!!
Thanks for your kind words juli, get that big bike and get out touring its much more fun than the 125.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Dave! Done my licence twice with him now (A2) and both times were a breeze.
Thanks Boe, see you on a ride when you have your big girls bike lol
Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience from start to finish. Passed Mod1 last week &. Mod2 today. I can’t Recommend Dave enough a brilliant instructor. His professional approach, years of experience as a motorcycle Instructor combined with his ability to put you at ease from the moment you meet him make the learning experience a pleasure. I owe my my pass to Dave’s tuition, thank you for your patience, calm kind words when I started to let the test nerves get to me.
Thanks mark, you put in the extra effort needed and got the result you wanted. Stay in touch and join us on the ice cream run to Belgium when we can travel again.
Fantastic experience: Dave was recommended to me by multiple colleagues of mine, who really spoke highly of him. And having just passed my full Cat A license with him I can see why. I originally started training with another bike school before the covid lockdown but fell at the last hurdle on my Mod 1 on the hazard avoidance. Flash forward 6 months and while training with Dave he was able to iron out a few bad habits he had spotted in my riding. Thanks to Dave's training I was able to sail through both the Mod 1 and Mod 2 with ease and confidence. Honestly the difference between the two riding schools tuition was like night and day. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone who is looking to pass their full bike test. Thanks Dave!
Thanks Mitch, I hope you managed to pick up your new bike and avoid the rain swing by and say hi some time
Fantastic experience: Absoloutly brilliant guy, the training he gives you is second to none and he will always help you practise anything you dont feel comfortable with. Will be reccommending him to everyone
Thanks Zak, enjoy your new bike and ride safe.
Fantastic experience: Recently learnt to ride with Dave at DG Rider Training. I can honestly say you will not find a better place to learn to properly ride a motorcycle than with this gentleman! Not only did Dave settle a very nervous me through Modules 1 & 2, he has made me a better, safer and more confident rider all round. I can’t recommend DG Riders enough! Thanks for everything Dave, and I very much look forward to the next ice cream run to Belgium, when this lockdown madness ends, and we can get back to some social ride-outs. All the best mate, Paul
Thanks for your kind words Paul. Ride safe see you for icecream when the world is healed.
Fantastic experience: I recently passed both my Mod 1 and Mod 2 bike tests with Dave. He made me feel at ease from the beginning, and I enjoyed every day of my bike training, it never felt like a lesson! Dave's method of building manoeuvres from day 1 meant I was confident when it came to my mod 1 test. The road riding I had done in the training days meant by my mod 2 test I felt confident on the bike and it felt like just another day out riding. I would recommend Dave to anyone who wants to learn and enjoy the experience!! Thanks Dave!!
Thanks Kate. Ride safe and enjoy the summer hope to see you on a ride out one day.
Fantastic experience: Took my lessons with David an can honestly say hand on my heart he is one of the nicest, patient and calmest instructor you would ever get. He is a fantastic instructor exactly what you from an instructor. Me and my pal took lessons with him and we both passed due to how good the teacher is, so thanks to him would definitely 100%.
God bless you ricky go buy a bike and join me for a proper ride out for lunch when the worlds open again.
Fantastic experience: Dave was amazing, very patient and taught me to ride at an advanced level. Highly recommend. Thank you Dave.
Cheers Chris now get that deal done on that strom
Fantastic experience: Having previously always trained and tested with Phoenix training, I quickly realised how superior DG was, for the first time I felt confidence, compared to nerves which is all that was instilled by certain Phoenix instructors. Very glad to have come across DG Training, as otherwise I might have failed my test a second time! Excellent quality training was provided for the time frame I had, would definitely recommend over any other local training centres.
Thanks Toby, see you on ice cream run next year !!
Fantastic experience: David is incredibly patient, kind and generous. Each lesson was done at my pace and were incredibly fun! He teaches you how to ride for life, not just for the tests. He will go the extra mile to make sure you are confident and comfortable for the tests with plenty of tips and tricks from his experience. The bikes are in excellent condition and were a nice introduction for me to learn how to ride v twins! Thank you Dave, I don't think I'd have enjoyed riding as much if not for you!
Thanks Neha. Keep putting on the miles. Remember smiles per gallon not miles per gallon lol
Fantastic experience: Completed the three day DAS course for an A2 licence. Passed both Mod 1 and 2 first time. Dave is a phenomenal instructor, tailored the training to my needs. Helped me to lose the bad habits I picked up riding a 125 for a year. Dave also booked a practice session at a Mod 1 test centre which really helped a lot. Bikes are brilliant and very well maintained. Could not have asked for a better instructor. See you in two years Dave for my full A license.
Thanks Yusuf. Just have to decide which bike to buy now. Well done on passing both tests 1st time too.
Fantastic experience: Dave taught me many years ago he is great I’ve recommend many friends to him to do bike tests. He really looks after you and knows all the best places to get breakfast.
Oh the breakfast !!
Fantastic experience: Dave is an absolutely fantastic instructor. Patient, knowledgable, funny and dedicated. I couldn't recommend anyone better.
Thanks cliffy. See you on the next Belgium run
Fantastic experience: Dont every say you're too old to learn to ride a bike. I was 56 when i passed my test. Only made it with the help, encouragement and understanding from Dave. Dont think about it anymore, get your motorbike licence, ring Dave now
Thank you julie, I thought you were on 26 lol
Fantastic experience: 5 star motorbike training
Thanks sue see you on the chip run
Fantastic experience: Ages 25 I had never been on a bike in my life before day one with Dave. 5 days later I was doing my Mod 2 and passed with flying colours.. I felt so confident with Dave from the moment My CBT started on day 1. I would highly recommend Dave and have done to many people. After passing my test I then purchased my R6 and went onto the R1 within 6 months. I have no doubt Dave give me the confidence, time and support to feel that comfortable on 2 wheels and anyone thinking of taking there test should use Dave. I have also never had an accident in the 4 years of riding and I think that is also a credit to Dave. Dave also occasionally leads day trips to Belgium for all his ex students.. This is such a good day if you ever get the opportunity to join. Adam
Thanks Adam see you on the next Belgium trip
Fantastic experience: Did my direct access course with DG Rider training and can not rate highly enough. Took me form never being on a bike to skilled rider in just 5 days. The course was tailored to my learning needed and small group size meant plenty of feedback to ensure i was safe on the roads once the course was over. 10/10. You will mo be dissapointed
Cheers Duayne see you next trip
Fantastic experience: First class ridding instructor. I passed first time with Dave’s instructions, makes you feel extremely comfortable and confident. Very friendly and professional. Highly recommended
Cheers Craig
