Fantastic training school!
I can't recommend 1st Gear enough. From my CBT through to passing my Mod 1 and Mod 2, everyone was so supportive, patient and encouraging. They really helped build my confidence and made the whole experience enjoyable.
I’m so happy to have passed my Mod 2 with a clean sheet and no minors! 🥳🏍️
A massive thank you to the whole team at 1st Gear for helping me achieve my bike licence. I couldn’t be happier! ❤️🏍️
CBT Experience
I didn't manage to complete my CBT on the first try, so I returned today for another go. I had Scott as my instructor and he is really why this review is five stars. He was super knowledgeable and made me feel at ease whilst going through each section of the CBT and if I did something wrong he would explain to me in a nice calm tone which helped me understand and learn. Once we got to the road ride, his instructions were clear and concise, which kept me more relaxed and calm on the road and I truly believe he is the reason I passed on this attempt. Couldn't recommend him enough.
What a grate experience thank you 🙏 you…
What a grate experience thank you 🙏 you to lan for looking after me .explaining everything to us what we was doing .wish i found your training school before it’s been a grate experience today much appreciated and see you in the future kind regards 👍
1st gear top instructors
I passed my CBT last year about 8 months ago with an Instructor called Jacko, he was an absolute top instructor so much so that I went back there to do my A licence which I passed last week first time. For my MOD 1 and MOD 2 I had a different instructor each day and they were all absolutely brilliant. Seeings though I’m based around Tidworth area I had commuted 50 mins a day which was fine because I new I would come out with good riding knowledge and enjoy every second with 1st gear.
I had a great experience with all the…
I had a great experience with all the team at 1st Gear. They made everything incredibly easy, from booking the course to passing mod 1 & 2 first time. Would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you!
Absolutely fantastic experience
Absolutely fantastic experience. Steph, Jacko, Dave, Andy and Michelle were fantastic. I had been riding for 2.5 years before I came to redo my CBT and then on to MOD1 and MOD2. They have a fantastic site, great bikes and their training course is top notch. I have trained at 3 schools and these guys are the best. I passed first time but more importantly, I am a much better rider.
Big thank you to 1st Gear
Big thank you to Steph, Dave and Jacko. Passed my A licence today with 4 day expert course. Really happy with the help and support. Dave had me very relaxed this morning for my test. Thanks to Steph for the MOD 1 practice tips too. Great team and great facilities. See you on the road.
Highly recommend
Highly recommend. They took a 51yr old, absolute beginner, from CBT to full A licence in 6 weeks at first attempt!!! Thank you Jacko, Stefan and Dave for your instruction. 3 different styles of teaching but all hit home. Thank you Michelle for your attention to the booking of lessons and tests. A great experience all round!

I recently completed my A2 training with 1st Gear Motorcycle Training, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, the team were absolutely brilliant – friendly, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. Their teaching style made everything clear and easy to understand, and they offered great support throughout the entire experience.
The training grounds were excellent, giving plenty of space to practise safely and build confidence. The equipment provided was top-notch and well-maintained, which made the whole process even more enjoyable.
I would highly recommend 1st Gear Motorcycle Training to anyone thinking about starting their motorbike journey. The combination of expert instruction, supportive staff, and quality facilities made the experience exceptional.
A big thank you to the 1st gear team
Good
In October, I completed my CBT and Mod 1 and Mod 2 training with First Gear, utilising their first-generation equipment. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the exceptional trainers, particularly Dave, who guided me through my CBT, and Jacko, who provided comprehensive training for my Mod 1 and Mod 2 assessments.
However, I acknowledge a significant error in my planning. I scheduled my Mod 1 and Mod 2 tests on the same day, despite having successfully cleared my Mod 1. Given the distinct nature of riding exams, it is advisable to allocate separate days for each assessment. Unfortunately, I was unable to clear my Mod 2 due to persistent mental barriers that required refinement or additional guidance from a different perspective.
To address this challenge, I opted to change my training school and utilised the services of Circa (Adam Omid & Russel). Through their expertise where psychological coaching was more important than riding skills, I was able to successfully complete my Mod 2 assessment.
It is important to clarify that I have no reservations about First Gear or their training methods. Their promptness and dedication were commendable. Additionally, their facility surpassed the DVLA testing centre in terms of comfort and amenities. The motorcycles were meticulously maintained and prepared for optimal performance.
I extend my best wishes to the entire team at First Gear and commend them on their ongoing efforts. Their commitment to excellence is truly commendable.
A fantastic experience
A fantastic experience. I started my training initially with another school and was not happy with the lack of consistency and poor facilities. With the knowledge of what else is out there, I can state with confidence that 1st Gear Motorcycle Training is in a different league and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. The training centre is excellent, the instructors are great and made the whole process both educational and really enjoyable. If you want to ride bikes safely and pass your test 1st Gear Motorcycle Training is the place to go.

My review is based on having done my Module 1 training at two other schools previously. The basic fact is despite claims many schools just do not have adequate space and facilities to do justice to the Module 1 tests. 1st Geat have both the right sized facilities and good staff. Having failed my Module 1 on the avoidance/swerve I would have failed again was it not for 1st Gear and their facilities.
Amazing!
Everyone at first gear has been so lovely and helpful. From my hour lesson to get to know the gears last year to my cbt and then passing my mod 1 and the mod 2 today! The whole team really put you at ease and make you feel so welcome. They help you through the nerves and celebrate your successes with you. It's like your first little bike family. 100% would recommend for any part of your biking journey!

Complete novice to Cat A licence
I came to 1st Gear with zero riding experience to do my CBT then a few weeks later a weeks intensive training for my MOD1 and MOD2. The Bikes supplied and instructors were instrumental in taking me from a novice to someone able to pass my MOD2 at the first attempt. A special shout to Michelle who organises everything and Andy and Stefan who helped me when I wanted a couple of 121 sessions before each of the tests as this definitely helped boost my confidence.
I loved the MT-03 and MT-07 bikes used for the training and they were well maintained and clean every time.
Best of the best
The guys at 1st gear are honestly the best , they make you feel like your part of there family, so helpful, friendly, and there training set up could not be any better , would recommend anyone to 1st gear
Thank you guy for everything you do for me
Exceptional & you’re never too old!
Facilities- excellent
Equipment- excellent
Key to the whole experience?
The instructors of course.
Andy, Stefan, Jacko, Jez, Dave all brilliant teachers and characters.
Michelle in the office is a superb front of house contact.
Not one element not to like.
I’m just a very happy customer - no other connection.
Amazing experience from start to finish…
Amazing experience from start to finish - these guys are the best school in the area (and probably beyond). If you need to travel even a bit further to go to them, it will 100% be worth it. Supportive, encouraging and with the right amount of humour to make the whole thing a really fun experience. Outstanding.
1st Class, 1st time pass. 1st Gear
Massive thanks to all the team at 1st Gear from day 1 instruction right through Mod 1 and Mod 2 tests, Andy and his expert crew of Dave, Jezz and Jacko helped me build the skills, confidence and practice time to pass 1st time. It’s the perfect set-up off-road to hone your bike-craft, and all the on-road stuff is actual test routes around farnborough, aldershot, ash vale and fleet. Well maintained and modern bikes, brilliant structure to the lessons and an impressive pass rate. I can’t thank you enough guys… and Michelle in the office planned it all perfectly. I’ll miss it!
The best experience of learning I have ever had.
A special team with a fantastic work ethic.
Right from the booking, Michelle was witty and very helpful. Being of an older generation, I wasn’t sure what training I needed or even if it was for me.
Michelle, was encouraging and knowledgeable, with her professionalism I was booked in and on my way.
Right from my CBT, the training team were absolutely amazing.
They all were passionate about their work and were really supportive.
I hadn’t ridden in over 40 years and they were all helpful in the way they pointed me.
I learned more on my CBT than I did in the 2 years riding experience on my own.
I couldn’t recommend 1st gear enough. I had a great time and a good laugh all with a pass at the end.
When a team !
