    Absolutely no experience at all and worried if I could do what was required at 54, I couldn't of ask for a better instructor Andy nursed me through every step and explained everything in a way I understood and at my pace. Thank you Andy at Northern route.

    Rude and impatient owner. I've resigned from further lessons just after 2 hours. The instructor was showing complete lack of respect. We don't have to be friends but don't treat me like 6 year old. Avoid! Update: after few years from this review I finally found time and passed my DAS with another instructor stress free! Passed first time.

    I used Northern Route for my CBT and to gain my full A license. I found Andy very friendly and highly professional as you would expect from any other motorcycle instructor. I rode their bikes which were in excellent condition, passed first time and would highly recommend anyone else to use them without hesitation. As for the negative comments on here which I don't understand ? Maybe there are some people who find it hard to follow instructions, and should not be riding motorcycles ???

    I would really recommend Northern Route for all abilities; Andy uses a client centred learning approach & coaches rather than talks at you. He will ask questions & get you to think about things which really helped me with retaining the information he was sharing. I found his tutoring style helped to move through the elements at the individual's pace, he asked us questions & checked our knowledge which meant he didn't need to labour on certain points or if needed he went into more depth. Safety was a big feature & I felt really comfortable with Andy's instructions when out on my road ride, he gave timely clear instructions & didn't talk too much unless he needed to allowing me to concentrate without distraction. It was a great experience from start to finish, I didn't want my road ride to end, Andy really made the whole CBT experience enjoyable & he's a really nice guy to boot. Read on for a bit more of my experience with Northern Route... I've come to motorbike riding a little later in life, I'm a 41 year old female who wasn't the most confident. Andy was really patient me with & moved things at my pace which helped build my confidence. It's been over 10 years since I did my last CBT & I didn't even ride after it so I was basically starting from scratch. The addition of time lapsed & age has made me more cautious & I berated myself when I wasn't getting things quite right but Andy didn't make me feel bad about it, just talked me through what I did wrong, how not to do it again & sent me off to try it again. I had to return yesterday to complete my road ride element as I wasn't ready a couple of weeks ago when I did elements A-D, again Andy didn't make me feel bad or like I had failed, he gave me some pointers to practice as I already have my bike ready to go. So my equally patient boyfriend rode my bike out to an empty carpark & stood in the cold and watched me practice. I still wasn't feeling fully comfortable so rang up Andy & explained my concerns. He got me back down to his yard yesterday & broke everything down into small sections then linked them all together until it clicked. Andy really built my confidence up & this really helped my road ride to be enjoyable & even when I made mistakes, I didn't get wound up with myself, I kept going & with absolute thanks to Andy got my CBT certificate.
