Testimonials:
Cyndee Kneller -- Is there a thing as a 10 star? I definitely give it a 10 star. The classroom taught little secrets that you may not have found in the Learner's book. The parking lot practice builds a confidence and a team dynamic that is priceless. I walked away with confidence that I WILL pass the skills test and have the best knowledge to remain safe on the road. Between Greg's fun dynamic and Tracy's soft nature this duo can teach anyone, and I mean ANYONE!!! Take a bow you two. Bravo and a massive thank you. I will recommend this class to all I speak to.
Garrett Mayne -- 5 star I am far more confident after taking the course. My motorbike skills are much better, and I know I will be a safer rider than I would've been otherwise. I highly recommend this course for beginners.
GM Sin -- 5 star Recommend this course for all new riders! Greg is a great teacher, patient and talks you through scenarios/difficulties and makes recommendations on what you really need to practice. He is very thorough and takes his time, so you learn. Had zero confidence/total fear with my bike pre-course, not anymore!
Amber Hayes -- 5 star I came into the course never haven ridden before. The theory class was great, then we tried the bikes day 2, starting with the most basic balance moving onto doing slow riding in a controlled course I was doing MST test level u turns, slalom and figure 8s by lunch!! I left the course very confident of how to manage a bike safely and how to be defensive on the road. The finals day open road ride was amazing! thanks folks!
Meaghan Brown -- 5 star Probably the most fun I've had with my boots on... Greg is such a great character, providing laughs while learning and building confidence. There couldn't be a better choice in motorcycle schools..
Jonny Kurgata -- 5 Star Just finished this course. I was totally inexperienced and timid on a bike before and am now fully confident and aware. Greg does an awesome job of getting the point across, and it's never boring. Well worth the money, very very highly recommended.
David Veale -- 5 Star Greg is a superb instructor who will teach you the skills and give you the confidence to pass your motorcycle skills test and road test, ride safely and with that going for a ride becomes an even more enjoyable experience. Passed my road test on the 7th with ease, cheers Greg, see you on the road some time.
