Our Motorcycle Training Services
Did my CBT here previously, then came back after a long gap for my full DAS licence. Even with all that time off the bike they got me up to speed quick, and I passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 first time.
They get how students think. Rather than pile the pressure on they just get you to relax and do it, which is what got me through without overthinking. Genuinely nice, funny people who clearly love what they do and want you to enjoy it too with them. You even get ex-students popping in to say hello, and they actually want you to come back and show off whatever bike you end up with, not just pass and disappear.
Can’t rate them enough. If you’re getting your licence, go here.

I just completed my Mod 2 with Camrider Bedford.
I can’t thank them enough.
I knew I am complicated person, as I learn things in an unusual way, but I never dreamed there is a team that could handle it all. They made me feel safe, secured, calm and relaxed ever moment under my course from the beginning till the end.
Katie, Ralph ,Mike and Dale are incredible with their patience, empathy and enthusiasm. They were right there every step of the my way, helping me to reach my goal. They are fabolous, motivated and real in the mean time.
And Sally, she is the amazing Heart of the Team.
She is managing every couses from the background, booking tests and if necessary bring down the stars to make sure you are happy with your schedule.
They are absolut STARS!
So if you’re looking for the best team, you’ve found them. THEY ARE THE ONE! THE ONLY ONE!
Thank you again

I had a great time completing my CBT, Mod1, and Mod2 with Camrider Bedford. Nothing but positive things to say about the course and the instructors/admin. Good fun and incredibly patient (trust me!). Special thanks to Pete, Mike and Ralph who I did the majority of my training with 🙌

Writing on my wife’s account – I did CBT, DAS, MOD1 and MOD2 with Camriders in Bedford what can I say they are truly amazing. I highly highly recommend anyone looking to start riding to use them. All the staff are super friendly and extremely knowledgable and show great care and compassion in what they do it really shows how much they all care. You can have a laugh with them so that took lots of the stress off when learning. I’d like to say a massive thank you to Ralph for my CBT and Dale Mike and Katie for all the work you have done teaching me. I’d especially like to thank Mike as he has been my personal favourite in supporting me throughout the whole process and helping me believe I could do it thank you mate
