About Camrider Diss
Located at a huge off road training area, more than large enough to practice Module 1 tests at full scale, you will find a high-quality training area along with classrooms, rest facilities and all the services you would hope for with a professionally run training company. There is plenty of free secure parking and bus routes run outside.
Jan, one of our lead instructors, making sure everything is understood and practiced.
We make the CBT and full test courses a really enjoyable experience, and you will find we have a large range of bikes for you to learn on. Additionally, we provide loan helmets, gloves, jackets and waterproofs. Our office staff will book you to tests we have reserved in advance and make sure you have details of exactly what’s needed. If you need any information or have any questions we are just a phone call away.
Customer service is everything to us. Alan, Camrider Diss’s co director is always available to help you through questions about the tests, is able to book you to courses you need, and is able to make amendments or special provisions as you need them. Alan is also a fantastic instructor with a patient and kind nature to put you at your ease.
Jim, also a co director, is another very calm and patient instructor with an encyclopaedic knowledge of the training industry. His warmth and good character shows in the many letters of recommendation he receives. If you need the very best instruction there is, Jim, Alan, Jan and the whole team are the perfect choice.
The Diss training site is well located so you can have all the benefits of a local training site without the need to travel out to Norwich or Ipswich for each of your lessons.

Fantastic team , right from the start from booking with Jan who is super friendly and helpful , then on arrival everyone makes you feel welcome. My instructor yesterday was Adrian who was perfect , puts you at ease straight away and goes out of his way to make sure that you understand. I would highly recommend using these guys. Had an absolutely fantastic day and hope to go on to the next stage.

I was very nervous about learning to ride, I was afraid of being a potential hazard or inconvenience to people. I haven’t got very much coordination and I’m awful at multitasking. I was pretty terrified of taking my CBT.
Two years ago I was also diagnosed as autistic. I made my instructor aware of this fact on arrival, he took this into consideration for the entire day. He ask me how autism affected me and told me to do what I needed to remain calm and focused.
On arrival my instructor, Steve, introduced himself making us feel welcomed. He offered us a cup of tea and explained the activities of the day.
We went through each step thoroughly, taking breaks in between. We all got to know each other and shared quite a few laughs. He even brought us each an ice cream.
He made us aware of the mistakes we made, gave advice on how to improve and explained the purpose of each action. All the while encouraging us to have confidence in our ability
I was most nervous about riding on the road, but twenty minutes in and I was completely at ease and having a wonderful time. Our instructor gave us each an earpiece and explained each
manoeuvre to us by means of a one way radio. He observed us whilst we rode, complimenting us on our ability and giving advice where necessary. My first thought after finishing the two hour training on the road, was that of eagerness to go out again.
I had a wonderful time, the staff members I met were all very knowledgeable, welcoming and supportive.
Thank you Camrider.

Everyone I interacted with was incredibly friendly and helpful. Instructors on both of my test days put me at ease and made sure I had done everything I could to pass before the event. Would recommend to anyone 👍

I done my first ever CBT with Camrider in Eye with absolutely no experience with bikes and was a completely changed person afterwards! The instructor was very patient and was very informative and friendly too! We went through every bit of training very well and answered any questions I had. I will definitely be going back here again to refresh my CBT or even training for a licence! Highly recommend them!
