For Beginners
Students with no motorcycle riding experience usually start on a scooter before progressing further.
The first lessons focus on basic controls, balance and motorcycle handling in a safe parking area. Students then move on to the manoeuvres required for the practical test, followed by lessons on public roads.
Lessons are held on a one-to-one basis. The number of lessons required varies depending on each student’s ability and confidence.
A basic knowledge of bicycle balance is recommended before learning to ride a motorcycle.
What to Wear
Students must wear suitable clothing for lessons.
Shorts, skirts, sandals, flip-flops, heels and open shoes are not allowed. We recommend sturdy closed shoes, jeans or protective motorcycle trousers, and a long-sleeved protective jacket.
Cycle World provides helmets, gloves, rainwear and a fluorescent vest for lessons.
Lessons may be cancelled if the student arrives wearing unsuitable clothing.
