What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Riders taking their first steps into motorcycling, as well as those coming back after years away from bikes, describe Camrider Motorcycle Training Peterborough as a place where skills are built steadily and confidence grows with each session. Training spans CBT, the DAS course and the modular tests that follow, and a number of reviews mention passing on the first attempt after instruction that breaks each manoeuvre down clearly and allows repeated practice until it feels natural.

Laura is singled out for her patience and depth of knowledge, while Paulius, Mark, Graham, Ray, Paul and Mark G are named for calm, constructive teaching on the road. An observation shared by more than one reviewer is the welcoming atmosphere created by both office staff and instructors, with booking and date changes handled flexibly around other commitments.

People who had not ridden for years note that nerves were settled quickly and that experiencing different teaching styles helped round out their riding. Feedback points to well-paced, encouraging instruction, with newcomers and those seeking a full licence alike describing clear explanations, constructive correction of mistakes and a sense that nothing was rushed. Sarah and Sally are also mentioned for making the booking process straightforward and easy to arrange.

Paul at Camrider Peterborough was a fantastic instructor for my CBT. He was super friendly from the start, which really helped put me at ease. He explained everything clearly and gave us multiple tries until we got each skill right. On the road ride he was very helpful, patient and constructive, calmly helping us fix every mistake along the way. Thanks to his guidance I passed my CBT and left feeling confident and safe on the bike. Highly recommend Paul and Camrider Peterborough to anyone learning to ride!

Having riden in America, I utilized the DAS courses and was fully licensed in no time! The instructors were very knowledgeable and made each day of learning fun and enjoyable. Everyone from office staff to the instructors make you feel right at home.

Amazing experience. Passed mod 1 and mod 2 first time. Could’ve have asked for a better instructor than Laura. Keeps it real and teaches in a way that’s understandable. 100% recommend. Thank you
