The daily schedule is not fixed as we continually adjust this to meet the needs of each student, however the following gives an indication of what to expect from each day.
- Day 1 - An introduction to motorcycling, starting on our unique Rolling Road.
Here you'll learn the key skills of throttle and clutch control whilst feeling the freedom and balance of riding a motorcycle, without the risk of falling. Once you're confident, we'll move on to our private training area using the BMW G 310 R/GS - Day 2 - Continuing on from day 1, then venturing on to the road to combine theory and real life practice. We'll spend as much time as we can riding, exploring, putting your new skills to use and growing familiar with riding on the road.
At the end of the day, if you and your instructor feel you're ready for it,
riders will be invited to try a larger BMW motorcycle - like the
novice-friendly BMW F 800 GS - on our private training area to experience the
feeling of riding a larger bike.
After two exciting days riding, simply ask your Instructor
for more details about the next steps for your training. Whether you
opt for an intensive 5 or 6 Day Direct Access course, or our progressive
Elements path for busy lifestyles, we can make your riding dreams a reality.
