Yes – From October 1, 2016 to get your class RE Learner Licence you need to successfully complete ht e 2 Day Q-Ride Pre-Learner Training and Assessment course. This requirement is for everyone regardless of your experience.

Private lessons are one on one with one of our qualified experienced trainers. These lessons can be used to build skills and confidence in preparation for your next licence course.

Some licenced riders may also wish to book a private lesson if they haven’t rode for some time just to ensure that they are up to date with road safety laws and or just build their confidence back up.

Don’t let the name fool you! You don’t need to be an advanced rider to participate. Whether you just got your first bike, have had a licence for years, or maybe took a few years off and you’re ready to get back on the iron horse again, our two levels are perfect for any rider that wants to be an expert on a bike!
