I recently completed my CBT bike test with 121 Motoskills and honestly couldn’t recommend them highly enough! From start to finish, the whole experience was professional, well-organised, and really enjoyable. A huge shoutout to Pete, who was an absolutely amazing instructor. His teaching style was calm, clear, and incredibly supportive, which made a big difference in building my confidence on the bike. He explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. If you’re thinking about doing your CBT or any motorcycle training, 121 Motoskills is definitely the place to go. Thanks again to Pete for making it such a positive and memorable experience!

Organised a 1-2-1 session with Pete to gain more experience on the bike and I wasn't disappointed. 121 Motoskills are professional in every respect. Communication, clothing, bike and training are first class. Pete explains everything in great detail, passing on his years of experience. THE ONLY place to go for all your motobike training needs.

I can’t thank Pete and Carlie enough. As a complete beginner with zero riding experience, my confidence had been knocked by a previous school. Pete took me in for a 1:1 session and immediately put me at ease. By the end of it, the nerves and wobbles from my earlier experience were gone, and my confidence was back. I’ve now booked another session before moving on to my CBT, which puts me in a much stronger position to get out on the road and build real experience whilst being safe. Pete is an outstanding instructor, patient, clear, and able to explain things in a way that just clicks. If he can get me riding comfortably, he can get anyone there. A big thank you as well to Carlie, who went above and beyond to get me booked in and matched with Pete. Highly recommend.

I just passed my CBT yesterday and if I could give more than 5 starts I definitely would! Carlie was absolutely lovely in helping me book the CBT as I had never even sat on a bike before and answered all of my questions. Pete is a fantastic instructor: he created a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere, and in the end went above and beyond to make sure both me and another trainee finished our CBT even if it meant he would work past his usual hours. I really enjoyed the day, and after some more experience on a 125cc I will be coming back to do my DAS 😀
