Consensus on best training schools?

[ATV]

Hello all, newbie here.

I always wanted to scratch my itch for a motorcycle. I've got family overseas who regularly do summer bike trips and I'd love to join them. I'm in my forties, I have a full driving licence.

Is there a consensus from this group on which riding schools offer the best training? I'm Yorkshire based and happy to spend the money on a decent training school. Flexibility around my job would also be a plus as my work involves last minute trips out of town quite regularly.

Thank you

Yorkshires a big place? Are talking Scarborough or Pontefract?

Go to your nearest one for the cbt.

You’ll get a feel for how they are on that and if you don’t like them you won’t have lost much, if anything.

I used to work for Phoenix Motorcycle Training in South London. Phoenix has branches all over the country and they did have standards you were supposed to operate to in addition to the CBT syllabus. If they have one near you I'd recommend them

I used https://www.ride-4-life.co.uk// 7 years ago when I was returning to biking.

They're based near York.

I'd recommend them.
