Learn to Ride

Learn how to ride a motorcycle around a carpark area, using the clutch and changing gear. Can be a refresher for people who have not ridden for some time, or have had little riding experience.

Description

Our Learn to Ride course includes free use of motorcycle (with clutch and gears), helmet, gloves and wet weather gear if required. 

Useful for scooter riders wanting to learn how to use the clutch and gears to progress to a motorcycle. 

1 - 2 courses may be required, depending on any previous experience or not, and how you learn.

The next level is Basic Handling Skills which includes the licence test. BHS can be completed on the same day as LTR for more confident riders, or booked on a separate day.

An automatic scooter can be provided on request in advance for riders wanting to learn to ride an automatic scooter.

Prerequisites

Essential - You must have ridden a bicycle/pushbike recently, and have good balance skills. Learning to ride also requires good co-ordination, 'feel' and smoothness. It is ideal to have car driving experience.
