Very good/educational video as always! Great take away on hanging back from large vehicles to create space & increase view as well as parked lorries with high sided doors!
Van driving @ 09:00 shocking. The rear door swing on that heavy @ 10:40 could catch out many of us out in even slightest lapse of concentration ! Seeing that happen on vid will likely cause me to be extra careful if faced with similar situation...thank you ! Anticipation & 360 awareness so crucial. Not a fan of louder exhaust notes albeit here the sound of exhaust allowed me to get a better feel for the anticipation & riding of the student. As you highlighted... the student can benefit from easing off/holding back a fraction thus facilitating more time, space & control (less drawn in). Thanks for sharing & student for consenting to help make this vid. Ride safe 🏍👍
Really enjoying watching you, stick at it as it will come. I woke up 48th birthday decided I wanted to ride. 3 failed mod2 tests including falling off and even managed to pull a wheelie on my learner bike by dumping clutch with high revs at lights I passed. So you will never be as bad as I was. When you're out and get a bend right it's the best feeling. Won't give you tips. It takes the fun out of it, try not to overthink everything and just ride and enjoy
Im sure that exhaust sound on the 125cc would make it difficult for me to concentrate, very calm and confident instruction and guidance from yourself, your trainee is one very lucky person to have you as their wingman and im sure they are on the right path for a full license, great video as always
Much calmer instructor then mine i passed but he was stressed because of the other learner as he was swerving and other slight problems but lucjily he didnt shout
Got stop by a driver today saying I am going to Slow on a 20mph speed limit, my speed monitor says 20mph keep 19 18mph be safe, on Google Maps says going 15mph can't be right, get lot of drivers overtake 20 30 roads Thanks
I just recently passed my cbt and have a 125 for simple commuting purpose. I have no interest in getting a full bike licence as prefer to drive on long journeys. But i would like some more training with an instructor speaking in my ear just like element E . Is this something that a training center would offer? Obviously i would be willing to pay but i don’t want to do all the yard work going through basic manoeuvres
Hi, depending on their business model, some schools would be happy to do this for you. Some do a course called CBT+, or some will just do extra lessons. I hope you find a school near you that are happy to help
Hello, thank you for your comments. Im afraid I cant comment about individual schools but if you need a cbt then to avoid the possible difficulties that you mentioned i think it could be worth speaking with the chief or senior instructor before starting cbt to make sure satisfactory arrangements are in place for you to be able to learn to ride and successfully demonstrate the competencies required so that an instructor can issue a certificate. The full CBT syllabus can be found online on the gov.uk website if it helps. I wish you well with your training.

Damn, that learner bike is LOUD lol
10:40 that guy swiniging that door should loose all his licenses. Dang
Another good video - enjoyed that. Particularly liked the instruction regarding the approach to and negotiation of roundabouts.
Really good video for new and some good reminders of older riders 👍
Fantastic instruction!
Amazing detail in the instruction and really well made video, Wish you were local to me haha
