About CAM Rider training - Bury St Edmunds
Camrider has established Bury St Edmunds best located and most successful training site. Situated in the centre of Bury, this is a centre of excellence that has all the facilities and skills you could hope for.CBT and Direct Access
CBT, Direct Access and advanced training courses are based from West Suffolk College and utilise all the facilities and experience of a large academic organisation. There are clean warm classrooms, a choice of canteens offering food and coffee (always a winner after a ride out) with toilet and rest facilities that sadly are lacking in many other less able training companies.Our lead Instructor Matt Branston is an exceptional instructor with the highest possible qualifications. Matt has taught for over 12 years and also is a respected training assessor teaching new instructors the skills they need to pass their tests! All our CBT and Direct Access instructors are dedicated professionals licenced by the DSA.
We know that Matt's friendly and patient manner, along with his professional and able team will welcome any new rider.
Our site has a huge training area to allow new riders to safely practice CBT and test maneuvers, before moving on to being introduced to road conditions. It does not matter how much experience you have had - we specialise in new and novice riders and you don't even need to know how many wheels a motorcycle has - we will look after you from day 1 in a friendly and professional way.
