Testimonials

Both Pete and Carlie were absolutely fantastic 👏 a warm smile and good banter to put you at ease 👌
Great experience with 121. From booking to achieving my CBT. Carlie was helpful and supportive throughout the process. Pete was an amazing instructor. He explained things at each stage. Answered concerns and addressed individual needs. They have a policy of supporting individuals to go at their own pace and will go over anything you are unsure of at each stage of the training. You definitely feel in safe hands before going out on the road. I feel very prepared for my motorbike journey. The venue is really good, too, with essential facilities on site.
Had the best experience completing my CBT. Pete was so patient and great at explaining everything! Will definitely be back to complete the rest of my journey:)
Came here to do my CBT and Pete ( I believe that's his name lol ) was amazing taught me more than any of the other places I went to for my CBTs I felt so comfortable IV even booked my DAS with these I would 1 million percent recommend to anyone who needs to get on 2 wheels I would also like to add nothing was rushed he explained everything into detail to help me understand and also the banter comes free with him 😂😂 Thank you 121 Motoskills aka Pete see you again in 2 months
Pete and Carlie sorted me out a CBT at short notice when I realised mine had elapsed and I had an event approaching. I had a great session with them so booked my DAS too. I completed that and passed a couple of weeks ago. Pete's training style helps build confidence on the faster bikes and there is plenty of time to practice and refine skills built into the course. They were highly recommended to me and I'd highly recommend to others as well! 🏍️💨
I can't rate 121 Motoskills highly enough. Fantastic experience from the first email to the end of my CBT training. Having previous CBT training that I didn't enjoy due to instructors attitude and verbal outbursts I was a bit cautious of what to expect. Pete was very professional, knowledgeable and passionate about what he does, but best of all he was patient, calm and tailored the training depending on what you needed to improve on giving you the time and confidence to learn at your pace. I would strongly recommend this training school for any of your motorcycle training needs. Thank you Pete for a fantastic day, I could have chatted to you for a lot longer if we had the time. Thank you Carly for the friendly, quick, easy and professional booking service. Ride safe. Martin
