Shield Motorcycle Rider Training

Absolutely awful place to learn how to ride a motorbike. It was my first ever time on a bike and all I received was abuse, foul language and no support or training. Facilities were awful, bikes were falling apart and instructor wasn’t far behind them. If it’s your first time, look elsewhere and make the experience enjoyable and you actually be able to leave there feeling like you learnt something and excited to begin your biking journey. For information, I sat my CBT with Neil around 8 months...

If you want to learn how to actually ride you bike, safely and confidently there is absolute no other instructor to use. Neil will teach you everything you need to know, and make sure you understand why....He has the patience of a saint, god knows he needed it with me, but will kick your arse till you get it right. Had and absolutely brilliant day of learning and confidence building, loved it. Get yourself booked in now.

Such a nice and honest man, I would recommend Neil so much. He really wants you to be safe and he’s very patient. I went to take my CBT having never driven a motorbike before. Through practicing in the car park, I panicked, had my eyes locked on the curb (despite Neil yelling to turn off the throttle) and crashed into a hedge whilst the bike toppled over, barely missing my ankle! Entirely my fault but Neil was very supportive and warned me that driving a motorbike can get dangerous quickly. ...

I got my CBT certificate last week after a day and a half training, Neil was great, instantly felt comfortable. Neil was very patient, gave great advice and tips and made sure I went away not only with my CBT certificate but also with the knowledge and confidence to be able to be safe on the road. I would highly recommend neil.

Don't train with anyone else. Passed my CBT and started lessons with Ace motorcycles which were average at best, 6, 1 hour lessons but felt 0 improvement. Decided to switch trainer and it was the best decision I made. Turned up and trained for the MOD 1 stuff, Neil asked what I had learnt so showed him (most of it was lacklustre due to being rushed through at Ace and not having 1-2-1 training). I learnt more in 1 lesson with Neil than I did over my CBT and 6 hours of lessons for my DAS lice...
