              Direct Access Training

 Direct Access training is a much higher level of riding skill compared to CBT, if you are over the age of 21 it is carried out on a 500cc machine giving you a full licence to ride any bike if you pass your test.  You are only permitted to ride a 500cc when accompanied by an instructor until you pass the test.  You can ride a 125cc machine unaccompanied on L plates once you have passed CBT.  The training ratio will be no more than 2 students to one instructor, if you require one to one instruction there will be an additional charge, please call for details.

 If your control of a 500cc machine is not up to the standard required (normally dropped by the individual) the Director of Training will advise that you will sit your test on a 125cc machine, once the test is passed you can ride any bike up to 33BHP for 2 years and then your license can be renewed for a full license with the DVLA without further testing.  The Director’s decision is final and gives you the best chance of passing your test.

 You will conduct a minimum of two full days training on a 500cc machine before taking your test.  The instructor may advise on additional training if you are not up to test standard.  You cannot sit your test unless RideSafe Training has your Theory Test Pass number at least 10 full working days before your test.  The DSA will not conduct a test without this number.  If you require help with revision for the theory test RideSafe offer a 1 hour crammer session for £30.00.

Local Theory Test Centre: 41 Broadway (1st Floor), Peterborough, PE1 1SQ

Test Day Administration             

There is very high demand for motorbike tests and RideSafe training will make every attempt to book your test as close to the last day of training as possible.  If you have made your booking well in advance this is more likely to be the case.  On the day of your test, the instructor will take you for a pre test ride, giving you the chance to practice a few slow control exercises and give you a warm up ride before finishing at the test centre.  Remember the test is just another ride, but with an examiner with radio contact.  At the end of your test the Instructor will brief you about the test day and will wait for you to return with the examiner. The Instructor will be at your debrief and may recommend further training. You will require the following for your test day:

Module 1 Specified Manoeuvres Test
1.         Driving Licence (and Photo ID)
2.         Your theory test certificate.
3.         Your CBT certificate. 

Module 2 Road Riding Test
1.         Driving Licence (and Photo ID)
2.         Your theory test certificate.
3.         Your CBT certificate.
4.         Your Module 1 Pass Certificate

 Insurance

You are insured to ride the RideSafe bikes for all traffic accidents, however you are not covered for the excess or any damage you do to the bike, i.e. you drop the bike and smash an indicator.  However you can opt to pay a one off damage waiver fee for the duration of our course, with no further cost to you if you damage the bike.  Please see our terms and conditions on our web site or call for more details.
