Business overview

Really great training for CBT (compulsory basic training) & all Categories of motorcycle Tests. Let's go on a fun 2 wheel adventure: let's ride! See our website for detailed info.

Real Rider M/C Training is based on Walney Island. Run by Martin and Denis who have a wealth of experience from many years helping people get going on 2 wheels with CBT, and to pass their tests and improve their skills. Several thousand South Lakes folk have learned to ride with us.

Andy is also a great part of our team and provides friendly, helpful training for CBT. We have a diary linked on our CBT web page. Wednesday and weekends are available.

We are a DVSA Approved Training Body providing high quality training for the official requirements of CBT. We also have loads of experience in helping people gain their full licence, and an excellent pass rate for tests. Covid making it very hard getting test dates off DVSA.

It's not just about tests, of course, but learning to ride safely and enjoyably. Riding motorbikes is great fun and very rewarding! Let's ride!

Email us rather than phone - we can then send you lots of helpful information.

Cool 1st time test pass for Justin
Chantel boogies round the cones!
Stopping to enjoy the view over Black Combe and the Duddon. Happy bikers!
Yes, we have to go 80 miles from Barrow to our 'local' Mod 1 test centre! We take you and the bikes there for a quick boogie round the cones.
Well worth doing Cat A2 tests - get onto a big bike at 19. A2 bikes are not small underpowered things! And if you don't do A2, limited to a 125cc bike for 5 years until you turn 24 and can do DAS.
If you're 24, this is the stages to a full licence. If you're not already riding, complete CBT. Pass your motorcycle Theory Test, then Module 1: off-road manoeuvres around cones in Carlisle; and finally Module 2: 'driving test' in Barrow.
CBT: Compulsory Basic Training. Basic first steps to getting onto 2 wheels. Fun training - not a test.
After completing CBT you can ride a 50cc moped @16+, or a 125cc motorbike @17+ To ride anything bigger you must be 19+ and take a Test.
The Kiosk in Ulverston - always a great place to refresh and refuel!

Hi - thanks for the review however after today's CBT you did not reach the required standard to be able to ride alone. High risk to yourself and others. Speeding, poor osm, poor lifesavers, to close to vehicles, wrong side of the one way street, unable to take the 2nd exit on a roundabout, unable to recognize 20 mph and 30 mph zones, then threatening the instructor as he tried to give you an in-depth debreif spells a recipe for disaster. You are not safe to be issued a DL196.

Excellent instruction from Andy for my cbt. Really feels like he aims to get you to a high standard, working on your weak points in an informative, fun way without being patronising or pushy.
Will definitely be using real riders for big bike training in the future.

Martin and Denis are top instructors, they both help and support you throughout. If it's your cbt or full bike licence you want, go with these guys. They also work with a newly trained instructor who is also fun and supportive.
Martin and Denis are the best at what they do, and also get you to boogie. They are highly recommended for any new biker.
