I have a lot of praise for the people at Camrider. They took me a complete novice from CBT through to passing the large bike test. The whole process was well thought through, the bikes were new and obviously kept in excellent condition. Nothing seemed to much of a trouble for the instructors or booking staff. I am genuinely impressed and happy to give a good review to a well deserving company. I also want to thank them for putting up a free practice tool for theory and hazard on their... (read more)

Before I start, I would give CAM rider 5 stars for the facilites and bike standards. However my instructor was of an appaling standard. After less than an hour on the bike I was told I was not competent for the road ride. Arrived at 9 and was walking home at 11.40. The other learner who was there had already had her CBT for two years and even had her own bike. While I was learning clutch control the other learner was ready for the road ride. Clear preferance was shown aswell, and I was... (read more)

Its going to be tuff not to ramble here as I have so many positive things I can say about CamRider so I apologise in advance, but I really hope anyone looking to take lessons in Chester reads this and goes with these guys as they really were top quality at every level. To begin with I was very unsure which company or what level of test I wanted to take. The website endeared me enough to give them a call and ask some questions. I believe that first conversation lasted at least half an hour... (read more)

I want to pass on my thanks to Camrider for a fantastic experience. The course exceeded my expectations in all ways and I am very happy to pass on my recommendation as a very satisfied customer.
The booking staff were excellent and knowledgeable. They could not have been more helpful in resolving my requirements in fitting in with work and child care, and the confirmation process was more than clear. I appreciated both the email and paper maps and detailsI I also used their computers to...

The bikes were well maintained and there were even bikes for the vertically challanged.
From the first call through to getting my pass certificate every detail was taken care of by my instructor or the office based staff all of which were professional but friendly which puts you at ease straight away, even after a bike break of 20yrs!
The lessons progressed at a pace to the individuals learning pace with regular updates on riding through the earpeice and during breaks. This team love their...

I did my training at Camrider in Sawston, and they are a brilliantly friendly and professional group of people. As an older lady rider, I was treated with kindness and the kind of confidence I needed to make me feel as if I could succeed. No question was ever too much, and advice was freely given on any topic concerning motorcyling. I still have my instructor's tips singing in my head when I'm out on the road riding... and that's without the two way radios. I would tell any lady, if you're... (read more)

I did my cbt and das with camrider a couple of years ago in Mill Hill. I found all the instructors ever so nice, and good teachers who gave individual and helpful advice. I was provided with protective gear and helmet and of course a motorcycle. Does what it says on the tin. 10 out of 10. (read more)

I just finished my Direct Access with Camrider, Bury St Edmunds (4 weeks CBT to licence). Could not be happier with them. Instruction was great, course tailored to my availability, and a good result all round. I feel very confident on my new bike, and maintain a good friendship with the instructors. I can't wait to go back for some advanced training... (read more)

I done my CBT with CAMRIDER in September 2008, and they were fantastic.
I failed my first CBT with them as I kept leaving my indicators on (classic rookie mistake), but other than that I was really pleased with how far I'd come in just one day, the instructors are patient, and really know their stuff.
I then returned to do another half days road riding which was fantastic, improved vastly and passed.
Many thanks to the CAMRIDER crew, I'm on two wheels and I don't look back. (Except for...

I did my CBT with Fillip in B.S. Edmunds in July 2009, after having a bad experience a few years earlier with another company and lost all confidence and swore I was never getting on a bike again, bar being a pillion on the hubby's bike. I had a fab time. I then booked in for my DAS test with Matt.
From being scarred of the ER500, Matt was/is great at making you feel confident, even when I dropped it trying to do a u-turn(don't ever touch that front brake). I passed my DAS in the end of...

I did my CBT with cam rider as the first part of my direct access. I can't fault their professionalism and more impotently they made it fun (and I passed both first time thanks to them!)
I also returned for the DVLA post test course and I've recommended them to several of my friends, can't say much more than that.

CAMrider.com I am a lady rider and always wanted to do my bike test. At almost 30 I still hadn't done it. My sister 8 years younger was desperate to do her bike test so suggested that we do it together - fab idea I thought!! She looked up on the website 'by one get one free' - awesome, was meant to be - ok it was February and high chance of ice and snow but hey who cares. Our sister in law was also keen and decided to do just her CBT. We all booked together and arrived in Bury St... (read more)

I took my CBT with Camrider at the late age of 44, they were very considerate, friendly & patient with me. I was so impressed I bought my 2 teenangers mopeds & of course they went to Camrider for their CBT. I'm now looking forward to taking my Big bike test along with my son. Every member of staff make what could be a very nervous day, into a quite enjoyable day with the delight of your certificate at the end.
Thanx guys n girls

Very professional group of people.Nothing was too much trouble for them to get me through both parts of the new test. Very knowledgeable and experienced instructors, and I had a great time with Nick and Luke. Although I did use my own gear, everything was provided if I needed it, including free tea and coffee. I would have no hesitation in recommending CAMrider to anyone. They are about the best you can get. (read more)

Training and test were done in Bury St-Edmunds my instructor was Matt he was fantastic showed me everything i need to know about riding a bike so to sum up what i think friendly, helpfull and professional but remember when you contact them to book talk to them tell them how old you are and what you need then they will be able to give you the best option for you this will reduce the risk of booking stuff you dont need or on the day turning up unprepared. i passed my DAS and the same day jump...

I passed my CBT and DAS with CAMrider just before the test changed last year. I went to CAMrider from a recommendation from my brother. I cannot praise them enough. The training site is well stocked and the instructors and other staff are all very friendly and welcoming. I trained with Liam (CBT) Alan, Nick and Luke (DAS) and all four were excellent. Each instructor picked up on my weaker points very quickly and knew what training I needed to iron these out. (particularly Luke and that pesky... (read more)

I think the "guest" has got the wrong end of the stick with this one. I have never trained with Camrider as i already posess my full licence but after looking around for somewhere for my brother to do his CBT and DAS i am settled on Camrider. The website clearly states that the bike hire is included in the price as well as the protective equipment i.e jacket, gloves, helmet, high vis jacket etc. As for attempting to flog you a second CBT for you to use a geared motorcycle is sceptical....

Camrider - The best motorcycle training providers available. Excellent instruction, good quality bikes and great value. Contrary to one malicious review on this site, my bike and protective clothing was all included in the price! They deserve 5 stars, just watch how many past pupils will attest to that!
Camrider train you to ride, not just to pass a test. Your safety is their priority and all staff including instructors and office staff are passionate about what they do. To quote one...

Excellent company to use. Instructors and very friendly and patient. Did my cbt and das over 5 days in April. Had only ever ridden a moped before, was made to feel that nothing was too much trouble. Passed both parts of test at first attempt, they even booked the test centre on a Sunday for me to practice. Thanks so much guys, am loving being a biker. Trained with CamRider Norwich. (read more)

Dear All,
Please can you all note that sadly a competitor is making false statements about us and abusing Review Centre. This is really sad for all of us as we don't get the 5 stars we work hard to get and you the customer don't get to know the truth. Though soon we hope some of our real customers will write up a genuine report - we are going to ask them on our Facebook group "Camrider Cambridge". We have over 600 happy customers just on there!

As the Managing Director of Camrider I have to note that competitors have sadly abused this excellent review site to write a false report of Camrider using unpleasant language. We hope this is deleted soon and fortunately we believe we can trace the false review through their IP statistics and prosecute for defamation. We are enlisting the kind help of review.com to do this.
I would like to extend a warm welcome to any potential customer to come and see our excellent high quality...
