Ride a Bike - Try it for Free

We are affiliated with two riding schools; Bridgend Motorcycle Training Centre and Bike Train Wales Newport and you can get your free ride with them.

A qualified instructor will brief you about the session and kit you out with a helmet and safety gear. Then you get to ride a 125cc motorbike or scooter away from the road on a secure training area with help from your instructor. They'll get you used to the gears and throttle and soon you'll be grinning like you did when you learnt to ride a push bike.

How Does it Work?

The practical session lasts about an hour. You’ll be introduced to the controls and learn to get rolling and stop safely. Then you practice changing gear, controlling the motorbike or scooter at low speeds, and riding around a simple course. At the end, you get feedback about your riding and the chance to ask questions about further training, how to buy a motorcycle, or anything else.

After your hour's session, you can find out more about doing your CBT or going for a full motorcycle license, how to buy a motorcycle or scooter and what kind might suit you, or anything else you want to know about life on two wheels. Then you're well on the way to the enjoying the freedom, fun and flexibility that life on two wheels brings.

If by any chance you don't like it, you can just walk away - you've had the experience and it's cost you nothing!
