Passes and Paint


There have been exciting times at Dave Barkshire Motorcycle Training. In addition to a flurry of eager riders taking their tests, our training ground has been given a bit of a makeover. The ground’s had a great new paint job courtesy of Cullum Line, so a massive thanks to them for doing such a great job!

We’ve had a number of riders successfully completing their CBT courses in recent weeks, including a great young rider, George, who demonstrated excellent awareness and safety on his ride around Norwich, despite only be 16 years of age! Other successful CBT riders, included father and son Ricky and Adrian, James, Sally, Louis, Jamie, Jo and John – well done to you all!

A large number of riders have also passed their Mod 1 tests recently with impressive results. Clean sheet passes were achieved by Steve (despite wet conditions), Chris (who was thanked by the examiner for a pleasant ride and told, "that's how a mod 2 should be done"), Shane and Marcus.  Other successful riders included Oli, Jo, Jason, James, Mark, Sam and Saichong.  Ride safely guys – and enjoy!

The latest Mod 2 passes have been pretty impressive too! James completed an outstanding test and we’ve never seen anyone remove his ‘L’ plates so quickly! Paul was equally relieved to pass in time for a planned ride to Wales on his new Lambretta, whilst brothers Tony and Carl also enjoyed success. Sam, Mark and Craig were all had cause for celebration too. Congratulations to all of these great riders!

We love to see so many safe and successful riders pass through our doors, with many enjoying first time passes following our training courses. Do you want to become a competent motorbike rider?

Rising To The Challenge


Despite some very challenging weather conditions, another crop of budding motorcycle riders have gained a clutch of certificates at the Dave Barkshire Motorcycle Training Academy over the past month.

A particularly cold and icy day dawned when Luke was due to take his CBT, meaning it was on the verge of being cancelled, but fortunately the sun broke through and success was his. Congratulations Luke!

CBT success was also gained by Antony, Kara, Leo, Craig, Dominic, Nathan and two other Lukes would you believe? We think Luke must be the lucky name of the month! Anne and Kenny also completed their CBT in very wet and cold conditions. Have a great time guys and ride safely.

Craig also had to face somewhat challenging conditions for his Mod 1 test – great result Craig, you actually made it look very easy!

Tony and Carl both completed their CBT training before going on to Mod 1 success despite the weather – can you try and bring better weather with you for your Mod 2 training guys?

Congratulations to James for passing his Mod 2 on the back of successful Mod 1 and CBT completion. Fantastic result James, enjoy your new KTM!

Finally Przemyslaw passed his Mod 2 first time, within weeks of passing his Mod 1 with a clean sheet!

As you can see, we’ve had many successful riders during the past month or so and your name could soon appear here too, if you sign up to Dave Barkshire Motorcycle Training. Just visit www.davebarkshiremotorcycletraining.co.uk or contact us at:

November News


November was as busy as ever for Dave Barkshire Motorcycle Training, with many more successful riders earning their certificates, despite the odd unforeseen setback.

There was a slight blip when two of our hopefuls’ tests had to be cancelled due to an examiners’ strike at the test centre, but this wasn’t too much of a barrier for our keen riders, who rescheduled their tests.

The weather also threw up some challenges, with the arrival of wet and windy conditions. However, this certainly didn’t stop Jo and James from gaining their CBT certificates with flying colours!

Passing their mod 1 this month were Craig and Steve – well done guys! Whilst David, Paul and Daniel all flew through their mod 2 to gain success. A big congratulations to them all, we wish them safe and happy riding in the future.
