Father & Son, Ade and Mike negotiating the hairpin climb in the Élan Valley on the last day of their advanced course today.

Covering over 160 miles today taking in some of the most challenging roads, including a walk around what one of my students once called ‘Grim Reaper Bend’, to analyse the make up of the bend.

A good ride by them both today in some stormy conditions. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

Here is Zoe & David on their CBT today at our training site at Whitchurch High School.

When it rained Zoe went for the Yellow Waterproof option! Very fashionable…. But they kept her dry!

David, a 6th Form Student at Whitchurch High also completed his Cbt today. Following in his Mums footsteps. David’s Mum is already a ‘1st Class Rider’ having done her Cbt and Direct Access with us. So David has bike ready and waiting for him, (and a riding partner to keep an eye on him!).

Well done to them for a great day. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

A wet start on their CBT didn’t dampen the spirits if Katie, Gareth & Mandy pictured here.

All smiles later too as the sun came out to finish off.

Well done to them.

Three more 1st Class Riders out on the road! From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

Sue & Nicky are all smiles after passing their Mod 2 big bike test today in Newport, rounding off a good week for 1st Class Rider Training.

We dodged the downpours throughout the day (well almost…) before they both brushed aside pre-test nerves and passed with ease.

We got soaked coming back home though… but they didn’t care then!

Well done and now ready for the Mod 2 test to come. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

Jamie proudly shows off his pass certificate after passing his Mod 2 bike test, at his first attempt & with just 2 minor rider faults.

A great result for him and a great day out up in Mid Wales for the training.

Well done. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

This is Gareth & Andrew taking a break at Devil’s Bridge on the last day of their Four Day Advanced Course.

Just waiting now for a date to be set for their RoSPA Advanced Test. (The Examiner set to do the test is away on holiday).

Both Gareth & Andrew proved themselves to be very competent and safe riders on their BMW K1200 RS bikes.

Well done, and looking forward to a 1st Class test result. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

Nicky & Sue taking a break during their ‘Step Up’ day on Monday, Stepping up to their first time on a big bike, preparing for their Module 1 test to come. Both well able to handle the extra power as they move up from their 125’s.

Looking forward to their tests. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

All smiles after completing their Cbt on our Twist n Go scooters. Kieran & Grant, both now hooked on the clutchless road ahead, and will be on the market for an automatic 125 to get out on the road.

Well done. A great result for you both. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

Well done to Hywel for a great Mod 2 test pass. No more L plates for him! Hywel has done all his training with us but also had the benefit of clocking up the miles on his own 125.

A winning combination of training and self practice.

Congratulations to him. From: http://www.facebook.com/pages/p/195837770466074

Here is Hywel & Dan after both passing their Mod 1 tests in Newport.
