New Rider?

Never Ridden Before? Why not book a Free Ride?

Daily commute getting you down? Fed up with tube strikes; delays in public transport; rising ticket prices; lack of seats or the daily grind into work generally? Then a motorbike or scooter may be just the solution you´ve been waiting for. Bikes and scooters are cheap, quick and fun.

What´s even better is that now you can try it for FREE!

Here´s how it works:

Contact us on 0800 612 9100 and we´ll book a free 1 hour trial session at a time that suits you. It´s all part of the Get On campaign which was set up to help everyone experience motorcycling.

On the day, a qualified instructor will brief you about the session and kit you out with a helmet and safety gear. Then you get to ride a 125cc motorbike or scooter away from the road on our secure training area with help from your instructor. They´ll get you used to the gears and throttle and soon you´ll soon be grinning like you did when you learnt to ride a push bike.

After your hour´s session, you can find out more about doing your CBT or going for a full motorcycle license; how to buy a motorcycle or scooter and what kind might suit you; or anything else you want to know about life on two wheels.

Then you´re well on the way to the enjoying the freedom, fun and flexibility that life on two wheels brings.

If by any chance you don´t like it, you can just walk away – you´ve had the experience, and it´s cost you nothing.

New riders

You don´t need a licence, but you do need to be 16 or over. You can expect:

• A session in the classroom that covers basic bike safety, clothing and accessories. We will lend you a helmet, gloves, and all the essential gear you need.
• A session on a training area away from public roads. The instructor will introduce you to a motorcycle or scooter, show you the controls and let you get the feel of the bike. You can then try a supervised ride and get an assessment.
• A session about how you can continue your riding, if you want to. This covers the structure of training and how to get different levels of licence, how to book training, what kind of motorbike or scooter you might buy and where to look for one. You also get the chance to ask questions.

Motorcycle Rider Training - Get back on Two Wheels

If you´ve ridden before, you may have the itch to get back on two wheels.

This session should help you decide if you´re ready to ride a motorbike or scooter again, refresh your skills, and hopefully remind you what you´re missing!

You can expect

• A classroom element to find out your level of experience and bring you up to date on motorcycle safety. We will lend you a helmet, gloves, and all the essential gear.
• A practical session in a training area away from public roads. The instructor will remind you of the controls, let you get the feel for riding again, and take you through essentials like slow speed control, stopping safely and riding around a simple course.
• A session on your next options. If you want to carry on riding, you´ll learn about advanced training like Enhanced Rider Schemes (ERS), or how to get a full licence, if you don´t already have one. You can also find out what scooters and motorcycles are available and where you might buy one, or ask any other questions.

Free Motorcycle Tryout Session - What Happens On The Day

Your experienced trainer will look after you, and there won´t be more than two riders per instructor. Your instructor will give you a safety briefing and kit you out with a helmet and all the essential gear.

The practical session lasts about an hour. You´ll be introduced to the controls and learn to get rolling and stop safely. Then you practice changing gear, controlling the motorbike or scooter at low speeds, and riding around a simple course. At the end, you get feedback about your riding and the chance to ask questions about further training, how to buy a motorcycle, or anything else.

What´s the catch? There isn´t one. We know that once you´ve tried it, some of you will like riding and want to take it further. If you don´t, that´s fine. But if you don´t try it, you´ll never know.
