Fantastic experience: Great experience completing a 121 session with Steve. I also completed my CBT / DAS with Richard and was able to pass both Mod 1 and mod 2 first time thanks to great instruction. Dave was also very helpful in reorganizing some missed dates. Overall I would recommend Quickstart.

Jennie Logan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Recently did my DAS course with Quickstart. Rich took my full course and was brilliant! Passed first time thanks to his guidance and patience (I had lots of questions along the way which was a running joke). I would whole heartedly recommend Rich at Quickstart, he's been there from start to finish since I started learning on my 125cc. The DAS course used Suzuki SV650s with heated grips! Hoping to come back for an advanced course soon.

Fantastic experience: Where to start with OXMT? I would not hesitate to recommend them for a CBT and DAS any day of the week! My first CBT was done with them 3 years ago, and Em was a fantastic instructor - patient, clear, concise and very respectful. She took as much time as I needed to make sure I was comfortable and confident. When it came to doing my DAS this year, it was a no-brainer to reach out to Dave at OXMT. Signing up and finding a date, talking about the requirements and what the course entails etc. was a good experience with Dave, as he is a nice chap. However there is quite a clear lack of formal organisation which is a bit behind other riding schools - no online system or diary, no email confirmations etc. - communication is quite messy with Dave as it’s through texting and often details are missed. That being said, when handing over to instructors it’s a totally different story. I had the good fortune of receiving training from both Steve and Rich - who displayed utmost professionalism throughout. Steve particularly is very organised, keeping me well informed of my training dates as well as my test dates, times etc. and texting detailed reminders and confirmations to me. Likewise with Rich, although I had less training in his care his communication was clear and organised. Steve’s training for Mod1 and Mod2 was fantastic - he installs confidence, and really drills you on your problem areas to iron out any kinks/bad habits early. I was paired with another student who went straight from CBT to DAS having never ridden before, where’s I’ve ridden for 3 years on a 125. Steve balanced very well the skills gap between us to ensure we both received the attention and training we needed. On top of that - he’s just lovely ☺️ For any prospective female students I’d also recommend Steve as he’s respectful, patient and kind - and NOT the patronising male type; I’d feel more than comfortable recommending female friends & colleagues to train with him. Overall, I would still not hesitate to recommend OXMT to anyone thinking of doing their DAS!! The quality of training is fantastic, the choice of bikes (Suzuki SV650 for unrestricted licenses) are also fantastic - great bike, solid road presence, good performance (lots of torque) and those all important heated grips for winter training! Thank you again Dave, Steve & Rich for getting me through my DAS and getting me on the road - see you out there!

Steven Hill 1 year ago

Jane Brown 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had my CBT today, with Wayne as instructor. Very clear instruction, guidance and teaching. He was exceptionally professional, tolerant and positive. One of the most powerful learning experiences of my life. I cannot thank you enough Wayne. The booking experience was welcoming, informative and encouraging. I can't speak highly enough about this company and my instructor today. Awesone! Thanks guys

J Z 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Recently completed my DAS with Quickstart and I'm really happy with the experience. I booked well in advance and got the dates I wanted with no problems and Dave in the office reached out close to the dates to make sure I had all the details etc. Mod1 training was good fun and well taught by Stuart, really calm day with lots of good tips. Did my Mod2 Training with both Stuart and Steve and both were great leading me to pass mod2 first time round. Rest assured, if you have a nightmare like I did on your first mod1 test, Dave will do everything he can to get you booked in and caught back up - I re-tested within a week! For those who are interested, the training bikes were SV650s which were good fun and had heated grips! I would happily recommend Quickstart, thanks everyone!

Jamie Hammonds 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Did my DAS with OXMT, Dave was great at explaining what I needed, sorting suitable test dates and any other questions I had prior to starting any training. Steve was my instructor for Mod 1 training and part of Mod 2 training. Great instructor, patient, helpful and knows how to have a laugh. (Just remember not to say sorry if you make a mistake!) Richard was my instructor for the last day of Mod 2 training, again a great instructor full of knowledge who makes the whole journey pleasant. Passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 first time so thanks to everyone at OXMT for the help!

Christopher Payne 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Dave, firstly I would like to thank you for all you did for Adriana and myself to accomplish our full motorcycle licenses, going above and beyond to get us the test dates etc. Secondly I would like to thank both Richard for taking us through the MOD 1 phase and MOD 2 phase of training, who was excellent in all respects, and Steve who took me on my MOD 2 training prior to my test, which unfortunately I was not successful first time around, however, his methods and instruction were impeccable.

kylepeo 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Recently done full bike test with QuickStart Starting with the CBT with Stu who was very calm and confident building. Then on to the mod 1 with Wayne and Steve Great instructors, no over complicating things just get you on the bike, build confidence and simplify the manoeuvres needed to pass mod 1. Then on to mod 2 with Dave and again a great instructor with heaps of experience to get you test ready. A brilliant team @quickstart highly recommend You give them a call if you're thinking of doing your bike test

Matthew Millar 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Instructors are great - went from zero to passing first time in less than a month. Booked an extra 1-2-1 with Steve a week before my Mod1 training and it was the thing that got me over the hump. The extra time on the bike is fully needed.

Jorge Duarte 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Did my DAS with Quickstart and sure enough it was a quick start! From the CBT with Stu, to the Mod1 training with Wayne and Steve, and later the Mod2 training with Dave, everything went smoothly (and quickly). Very well organised, the bikes we used were in very good condition, giving me (unexperienced rider) a great experience, and all the instructors were very knowledgeable and approachable. Definitely a 10/10 experience!

alex sartor 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I needed to renew my CBT and I was very well attended to. I scheduled the day and was very well received, with a spectacular class and a qualified instructor who was easy to understand.

Oliver Webb 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Oxford Motorcycle Training were really supportive in my learning to Ride a motorcycle. I had only previous off-road experience and Steve, our instructor, was very calm, super patient and clear with the main messages and learning points we needed to take. Steve was super relaxed which, in turn, helped me to relax and meant I took more from the training as a result. I would highly recommend QOMT for all you motorcycle training needs!

Oliver Grimes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I completed the full DIrect Acess Scheme package this week. The instructors took me from absolute novice to a pretty confident rider in only a few days. Very simple and straightforward booking. Dave was really helpful in securing me dates that worked for me. Clear instructions on where, when, and how for each day came via email, including a robust kit list. Clear communication in the run-up to each day also filled me with confidence. Do note that you will need your own riding gear, but you can rent a bike. The staff and instructors were all realistic, honest, helpful, and proactive. They ensure you are ready for the next step and will set you up for success. The work rate fits the group and ensures everyone has a fair shot to progress, and they did offer extra training to those who needed it. They even listen to your preference of coffee shops! All of them were friendly and professional with a clear passion for their trade. I had a taster session with another school, and they just didn't make me feel as confident as quickstart did. Honestly, I can't recommend these lot enough!

Sam 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Went for my cbt today at the witney quickstart site, with Wayne as our instructor. What a legend he is! He tells you what you need to know, what you need to work on and how to improve it. Made the whole experience stress free, fun, educational and enjoyable. Even with the rain being against us. Would well recommend!! It's an amazing experience, definitely worth it!

Mr w. Badby . He is a very nice person. I am please to practice with him . Thanks a lot

Fantastic experience: Really great guys, did a full course of CBT, Mod 1 and Mod 2. Very experienced instructors. Would highly recommend.

Katie Ward 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My son booked his CBT with quickstart after a bad experience with another company. He attended the Witney branch and had Wayne as his instructor. My son was a complete novice, and was taught with patience, everything explained thoroughly and was allowed the time he needed to practice what he was told before heading out on the road. The 2-way radio meant he was able to ask questions as they came up. He had a great experience all round and we would definitely recommend these guys to others in the future.

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Quickstart enough. After looking for a local motorbike training company, I came across Quickstart and embarked on the DAS journey - it’s been such an easy process from start to finish. Having never ridden a motorbike before, I’ve gone from zero to hero in just under a month (including a Mod 2 resit..). I had Craig take me through my CBT with two other guys - he made everyone feel comfortable despite the wide level of experience. By the afternoon we were out on the roads, helped by the confidence Craig had given everyone. For the rest of the DAS (big bike training and Mods 1 and 2), I was with Richard. Again, he made me feel comfortable despite the large jump from a 125cc bike and gave clear and sound advice throughout the road riding. He was really easygoing so felt comfortable enough to ask any questions, no matter how stupid. After failing my first Mod 2 test (absolutely a personal failing and not through lack of instruction), the owner, Dave, had me booked into a retest just after the 10 working day point - a really quick turnaround given the availability of some test centres. All in all, a cracking experience and I would absolutely recommend anyone looking to ride a motorbike learns with Quickstart.

Dom Turnbull 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Craig guided me & 2 other trainees through our CBTs this weekend. He was excellent; he gave us great tips especially on slow riding technique & trained us with humour, attention to detail, constructive criticism & positivity & used insightful methods to help us remember the various points. I could not recommend higher. Many thanks Craig!

Fantastic experience: If your looking for a motor cycle training company in Witney I totally recommend theses guys . Very professional approach from the first phone call. unlike others in Witney that never even bothered to return calls or emails. Small group which is great if you are nervous. Clear easy Instructions given by Instructors. Engaging and humorous and patient with you. Nothing too much trouble and had a brilliant day with a great group of individuals. Em who took our CBT group was an excellent Instructor and firm when it was required to keep you safe. Next on to mod 1 and 2 a few months later with Steve and Rich. Two great individuals who took the time to iron out any bad habits. terrible weather conditions but these two kept us safe and cheered up with our small group all passing and gaining a full bike licence. Personally I don't think you would find a company local that with give you a great welcoming experience and get you through your test with skills,laughs and a professional approach Thanks guys and ladies for a brilliant experience

Ben Ashwin 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience. Just done a cbt with these guys and the whole training was enjoyable. Previously done one with another company which knocked my confidence as a result of their lack of patience however this was taken into consideration and I finished my training this time confident and enjoying riding the bike (I have never even sat on a bike apart from my previous cbt). Genuinely can't rate it highly enough, if your a newby by looking to get into riding bikes defo look no further

Mike 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Brilliant day with Emma and Steve for CBT. Quickly ironed-out any nerves and got on with learning the ropes (controls). 4 hours later and we're riding around the Oxfordshire countryside. Booking my DAS with QS asap. Update: - Did my DAS with them 6-months later and passed all mods first time. Highly recommended, see you out there.

michael scarrott 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Big thank you to everyone at QuickStart for helping me to get my motorcycle license. I was trained by Steve and Emma who are both absolutely fantastic teachers. Steve in particular is exactly what I needed in a instructor. He’s calm, knowledgeable and great at relaxing your nerves when embarking on your first road rides. At the age of 36 I’d never ridden a motorcycle but every step of the way from my CBT to Mod 1 then finally Mod 2 I felt completely supported and well prepared. I’ve already recommended these guys to friends and family who are looking to learn.

Alistair Piper 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Although covid pushed my training back, when we were able to start I got through both my Mod 1 and Mod 2 in three days, thanks for the concise booking and great training from Rich and Dave

Nick Gilbert 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic day learning new skills and relearning old ones doing my CBT with Em Hamilton and Steve Hookham. Nothing was left to chance, all aspects required were covered in a timely fashion. I cannot recommend them enough and will certainly be doing my DAS course with them soon.

Gemma Stuart 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had a great day doing my CBT Saturday, Em did a fantastic job teaching me, she made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend Emma and Steve from Quickstart if you are wanting to do a CBT or training for your test.

Trevor Ricketts 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Emma did a fantastic job training my step daughter for her CBT. So friendly and professional put my step daughter at ease and gave the conference needed. Would highly recommend you won't get better.

Alexandru F 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: It was an amazing day which started with Emma and ended with Steve. I was way too nervous to ride but Steve's approach was fantastic. He took the time (more than 2 hours) to help me overcome my bad habits in traffic and my fear of riding. I can't recommend enough this team and for sure they are the team to go all the way. Thank you again, guys.

Garry Henwood 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: From CBT with Emma & Steve to full DAS training with the ''Boss'' Dave Grover , I must say they were all excellent, calm and knowledgeable. Training ride just before my road test I made some major mistakes and nearly bottled it but Dave kept me calm & reassured me and I passed first time. Big thanks guys, Only took me 30 years to do it all properly & I certainly feel a safer rider.

Lee Ingleton 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had such a good experience with these guys, I had next to zero experience on a moped, but dave our instructor did a great job putting you at ease and going through things, a good laugh too which really eased any tension. I was out riding to Burford and all around after coming here. Highly recommended.

thomas wiltshire 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: These guys are fantastic they make you feel calm especially when you've never ridden a motorbike in your life I would highly recommend them the amazing instructor on the CBT course he takes his time to get to know you gives you tips on what you need to improve on throughout the day now that I have passed my CBT I'm going to do my theory and do my direct access with these guys.
