Hi all, im looking to do my DAS in the new year. However, im not sure which course would best suit me. You obviously have a choice of between 2 and five day courses and you can also do individual lessons. I know this all depends on the individuals experience. Ive been commuting into london six days a week for the past 4 months doing 46 miles a day but Ive only ever ridden a 125cc or smaller. So my experience is minimal but I am confident on a bike. I have also just passed the theory test.

Perhaps there are riding instructors on here that could point me in the right direction or even better could recommend a riding school in the south east.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. Experience is on a geared bike. A 5 five day course would be better for more practice but im trying to strike a balance between enough practice and cost. A 5 dayer is around £1000 i think so not cheap.

Yes it seems to range from around £800 to £1000.

Thanks for the replies chaps. It didnt occur to me to barter with them about the number of days. Im in greater london by the way if anyone could recommend a riding school in that area. I will have a phone around.
