"Absolutely brilliant!"

Absolutely brilliant! I am 62, 5'2", 10 stone and a woman with an ambition to obtain an A class licence having never ridden before. The (many) instructors I had were all excellent, patient, encouraging, calm and really enthusiastic.

I was able to book as many practice sessions as I needed, including one on one lessons, and when I still managed to fail my Mod 1 twice, the office had managed to organise a resit before I had even driven home. The office support, email reminders and online training links are fantastic. This is a really professional company.

They never batted an eyelid when I fell off or dropped the bike, but helped me get back on and ride. The bikes are well maintained, and insurance for damage up to a certain limit was included. The teaching is multi-faceted and I found the scientific explanations as helpful as the practical support.

A really big thank you for helping me achieve something I didn't think was possible

"Passing 1st time."

I passed both my MOD1 and MOD2 first time. I trained at the Wembley site. Marcus gave me a road rider session as well as my MOD1 training lesson, Andrew took me to my MOD1 test where I passed and Dickie was my MOD2 lesson instructor and on the morning of my MOD2 test he gave me great pointers to help settle my nerves. I am in the process of searching for a bike and aim to be on the road soon.

Thanks everyone

"Dave is a legend"

I did my CBT with Lightning (Reading) and had Dave as my instructor. I'm not going to lie, the day was tough and there were points when I really debated just giving up. But Dave went above and beyond to build up my confidence and skills. He was honest and I knew that there was no way he'd progress me unless he knew I could be safe on the road. Honestly, I can say that Dave's passion, patience and dedication to his students is second to none. He wants people to fall in love with motorcycling, he wants people to have fun but he also wants us to be safe and good riders. Dave was great at really working with us to figure out our needs. He was firm when he needed to be, made us laugh when we needed it.

Give the man a raise, he's an absolute legend and I feel like I'll be a better rider because of his dedication and skill. 10/10 would recommend.

"Great service, great team."

I completed my DAS course with Lightning (Wembley) today, with a first time pass in both my MOD1 & MOD2 tests, with only one minor in both despite having no "big bike" experience.

Andrew & especially Marcus are great tutors/riders & are a credit to the Lightning team, give them both a pay-rise! They took the time to identify needs of both riders in every session and clearly have a passion for getting people into riding.

Thanks to both Andrew/Marcus & the wider Lightning team.

"I did my CBT with Dave at Lightning…"

I did my CBT with Dave at Lightning Motorcycle training in Wembley today. Dave made the whole training session very interesting and he was very knowledgeable and also professional in his approach. II was my renewal so I was dreading doing 6 hours but he made the whole training experience very enjoyable.

If anyone wants to do their cbt training at the Wembley centre I recommend Dave.

"Jobs worth instructors"

Jobs worth instructors. I arrived literally minutes after the cut off, and was told I couldn't join the session. A poor lady had ridden 3.5 hours in the rain to get there, and the jobs worth jub running the session clearly TOOK PLEASURE in telling her that she would not be able to join either. She was soaked through as it was a rainy day, and it would have been so easy to let us join (cue the cookie cutter response to this review).
The location on Google maps is wrong, and they have a temporary location that was nestled in one of the 8 highly unstructured emails that I received in the run up to the session.
As a gesture of goodwill, I am allowed to rebook with a ÂŁ20 discount. Absolutely livid. I've no incentive to rebook my CBT now.

"Had a great day at LMT"

Took my CBT test on 12th July and just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the whole experience.
All the staff there were friendly and cool to be around. Special shout out to my instructor Dave who's teaching method was concise and cordial. Thanks to his patience, positive attitude and professional instruction, I managed to get my certificate first try. Next day I was at my local motorcycle shop with a big grin on my face as I bought my first bike. (YZF125) Highly recommend you do your training with LMT as they really care about the customer and are a good bunch of guys to learn from. Fully intend to pass my theory and head back in a few months to get my full license!
