“Thorougly enjoyable experience”

Written on: 09/01/2012 by margaret_89 (1 review written)

I have recently completed the CBT. The course was about 8 hours and it was extremely well planned. It was divided into classroom theory, on-site bike riding skills, followed by a 2 hour scooter ride on the roads with the instructor and two students. My instructor was an excellent teacher - extremely knowledgeable, proficient, professional, polished with a great sense of humour. All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable learning experience. I would recommend the course to others. (read more)

“getbike helped me every step of the way”

Written on: 09/11/2011 by amclaughlin896 (1 review written)

Took my cbt for the 5th time , after riding my scooter for 4 years. Failed twice the first time round and having to retake every 2 years. As usual at get bike I really enjoyed myself and it refreshed my memory how to ride safetly and get rid of my bad habits I picked up while riding on my own. My instructor was Stan and he really takes notice to everything you do and how you ride. Would reccomend get bike 110‰ to anyone, and it´s worth travelling to even if you come from a distance...

“Amazing day with getbike”

Written on: 08/11/2011 by victorialand111 (1 review written)

Had an amazing day! The team were professional and welcoming from start to finish. Arrived a little late, but was warmly welcomed to the group and told the plan for the day. Everything was explained fully before getting out onto the bikes to reassure the younger /less experienced members of the group. During the morning we spent a few hours in the test centre practicing slow control and basic handling. Nigel had the patience of a saint and took the time to get everyone up to speed. The...

“CBT at Getbike - Professional Instructors”

Written on: 29/09/2011 by gustavgot (1 review written)

I renewed my CBT at Getbike. I had done the first one somewhere two years ago where I got very disappointed with the careless of the informations regarding the Highway code and the its importance. As I worked as theory instructor for drivers in my country, I got very impressed with the all Getbike instructors´ professionalism. They really take their job with responsibility to make sure the trainee is prepared to ride on the roads. Great infrastructure, friendly and experienced staff. I... (read more)

From the moment i walked into the door, i was greeted with a friendly face with a smile. I was directed to the appropiate room instantly and as soon as i walked in, was put at ease by the friendly nature of my instructor (terry). For someone who has never ridden a bike before and didnt know what to expect from the day, this was the best possible start i could have wished for. Right from the off on the pads i was also put at ease with Terry understanding my zero knowledge of never ridden... (read more)

“Getbike - Fantastic Team!”

Written on: 27/09/2011 by jane.dukejd (1 review written)

What a fantastic team, I've just got home after completing my CBT!. They took me from someone who'd never sat on a motorbike, a nervous wimp spouting apologies, to a confident road user in the space of 10 hours. I am so glad I did it. They taught us in groups of three, so you really have the one to one attention you need, which gives a lot of confidence and they don't mind how many times you make a mistake whilst your learning to control the bike. I would recommend this to anyone who wants... (read more)

“Very Friendly Instructors”

Written on: 01/08/2011 by johntomlinson1907 (1 review written)

Very Friendly, and helpfull instructors. The whole day was very informative and stress free. I personaly thought the course was well thought out and the classes not too large, which enabled the instructors to give each rider, be it on Scooter or Motor Cycle the necessary if needed extra help as and when needed. Thank you to all staff at Get Bike for making a pleasant and educational day out of what might be considered a daunting experience for some new Future Motor Cyclists and Scooterists. (read more)

Written on: 28/07/2011 by jackdmills2207 (1 review written)

Great thorough training and all your questions, if you have any, will be answered. The course really is as easy, or as hard, as you make it. Listen carefully to instructions, apply everything you're told whilst riding and you'll fly through the training. If you're doing something wrong, for example relying on the throttle being spring-loaded to slow down, you will be reminded, given advice, and asked to repeat the instructions until you can clearly demonstrate your understanding of the...

“Great GetBike CBT Experience!”

Written on: 20/06/2011 by tdoychin (1 review written)

"As this was my first CBT course, never had been on the road before, I was quite nervous to be honest. I went to GETBIKE centre a little bit early where I've met the manager who took care of me offering me coffe or tea and told me to have a rest if I want before the course. Then I was introduced to our instructor - Terry. During the theoretical and practical part with him I felt safe. He repeated everything for us, asked us if is there anything we don't understand and if needed explain to us... (read more)
