Had my CBT no experience on a bike before supported me through if moving me to an automatic moped to help me get comfortable for now and the instructor (Wayne) was brilliant.

Best there is. I've done everything here over the years, getting my CBT, A2 and then my Full A license. I've had Dan for all my courses and most recently Jay as well. They're both really helpful and it has always been a pleasure learning off them. Highly recommend to anyone going for any bike licence.

I did my CBT here with Stan and then Direct access with Jay, and a bit of time with Dan and Nick for Mod 1 practice. Everyone was fantastic, I'm neuro divergent so sometimes struggle to learn things the same ways or at the same pace as other people, all the instructors were brilliant at finding other ways to explain things and letting me work at my own pace.
Some days we had trainee or upskilling instructors with us, which was great, extra perspectives are always welcome and it's good to see a business investing in its people.
Having access to a Mod 1 practice area was great, especially so was getting access to the actual test centre for a run through, plus instructors who know the test routes inside out and will make them feel like a nice day out riding instead of intense practice. I went into my tests feeling well prepared and relaxed thanks to the attitudes and teaching styles of the instructors.

*EDIT*
After passing my cbt I went for my direct access.
My instructor’s were Dan (and jay for some mod 1 training) both really knowledgeable relaxed guys who put you at ease with their great senses of humour.
The whole week went smoothly and honestly have no bad points.
Dan was quick to tell you the things you did well which was a good confidence booster. Anything I was struggling with he’d show me a way of doing it more easily.
Would recommend this play to anyone regardless of their ability to ride.
Thanks so much Dan, Jay & triumph!
First time riding a bike, had Wayne as the instructor for the day. Can’t praise him enough! A very patient, relaxed, and friendly guy with a great ability to teach and understand where student’s may be struggling.
Massive thanks to triumph training will make sure to use them again for further training and will be sure to recommend.
Many thanks!!

I passed my mod 2 today with Triumph training after completing the das course, I chose Triumph after trying another local school, glad I did. Everyone was great, friendly relaxed and very funny, they also taught extremely well, Dan and Jay were my instructors and were outstanding. I suffered from a lot of nerves prior to my tests and I,m.sure I wouldn't have done it without the help I received from the guys. I would thoroughly recommend Triumph training for gaining your licence or cbt. It's evident that they really know their stuff!

Would definitely recommend if you’re looking at doing your CBT. I had no previous experience riding a motorcycle or anything and the relaxed atmosphere and banter made you feel comfortable and at ease!
I had to re arrange a few times as well when I could do my test and it was no problem at all.
Great bunch of lads! Will be booking in for my full license soon.

My boyfriend and I attended our CBT training with Stan today. I was really nervous and Stan made me feel at ease and he was amazing. He made it a good day and enjoyable. We would highly recommend doing your training or course here.

I haven’t ridden a motorbike for some years and never one with gears . After having conversations with Maddie and Georgie who explained how the day was set out I decided to ‘ book up ‘ my cbt . It was so interesting and I learnt so much under the supervision of Stan . Stan was extremely patient and and knew exactly where I needed extra help with . After my days instruction I was delighted I’d passed with a lot of from help Stan . Thank you all

Absolutely brilliant experience - went for a 2 hour refresh after moving from a scooter back to a geared bike. Had my session with nick. Was absolutely brilliant, wasn’t made to feel stupid really encouraged me and massively boosted my confidence, focused on making sure my basic skills were solid and then once out on the road focused on the skills that I was worried about until I was happy! Just can’t ask for more than that - was really glad I did the session when I picked my new bike up!!

I’m not really one for reviewing places, but thought this place deserved it. Did my CBT with U-Pass in Newton Abbot (don’t bother) and DAS with these guys. It was easy to sign up to, competitively priced and the bikes were in good condition. I don’t know much about bikes but I do know a bit about instruction- and Chris definitely had it weighed off very well. Go pay them a visit if you’re thinking about it…

Ian and Andrew were great, very patient and great instructors, I learned a lot and i had to unlearn some bad riding habits that I picked up from riding in America for years. A great experience and I'm very happy with the training I received. I definitely feel like I am a better and more careful rider after my day with the Triumph boys. Thank you and ill see you in the spring for my big boy training and test. Cheers

I travelled down from Bristol to do my CBT with these guys due to their availability, and what a find. Wayne was my instructor for the day - a really down to earth, friendly and exceptional teacher. Every single other person working there was incredibly polite and fun, including Chris and the office team. I’ll be going back to do my DAS, even with the added cost of accommodation for the week… that’s how good they are.

Just wanted to say , Chris and the other instructor , who's name I forget, drew to my stroke , apologized.
they both taught me how to remember how to ride again, they both had fantastic patience, and support and understanding of my situation ,
They both went the extra mile to meet my needs ,
I Trusted them 100%.
Plus I like to say I'm far from a young Rider.
And what I take away from my day at
Triumph Training will stay with me .
Thanks to all the Team at Triumph Training.
See you all soon ,thank you.
Kind regards from Chris.

Initially, I had passed the CBT course at another training school, MTS rider training to be exact, but after trying a number of times to book my direct access course with them and getting no response at all, (an issue a number of people have mentioned to me of late), I decided to go with Triumph training instead, who for one emailed me back straight away with my options, and two, couldn't have been nicer in doing so!
All the trainers and staff are great, with buckets of patience, kindness, consideration as well as professionalism, who really want you to do well and pass. No matter how inexperienced you are, there is training to suit all levels.
The school itself is very relaxed and welcoming, with straight to the point, no-bull training to help you get the best out of yourself while learning.
I am self employed so the intense course was spread out over my days off, allowing me to have more flexibility which helped immensely. After 6 sessions as someone who has never ridden before, I am so very glad to say, that I passed my Direct Access course. Something that the aforementioned school suggested I shouldn't do as I should get more experience on a 125cc for a year or so before committing. To me, that just goes to show that with the right mentors, patience and willingness to learn, that anything is possible.
I can not recommend Triumph enough and I am pleased to say that I already have people I know booking in with them to complete their direct access.
If you want relaxed, competent and knowledgable teachers that incorporate fun into riding, then Triumph is the one. Thank you all that guided me through to a pass. You rock! Safe riding!

I completed the 6 day Direct Access course with Triumph Training and passed first time. I have been riding on my 125 for only 6 months so to pass my full test first time was a great outcome.
The instructors were very good at helping to weed out bad habits and ensure safer riding. All were very friendly and thorough. Overall great service and would recommend if you are looking to do your test or cbt.

Thanks to these guys I feel confident and comfortable on a big bike… keep up the good work guys!!!!

Went for some refresher training to see if I had picked up any bad habits and to see if there were a few skills that I could work on. The guys were really friendly and the instructor very professional: clear instructions, good feedback and a good balance between being informative and enjoyable.

Did my CBT here last week, definitely recommend - Free parking, newish (2018) bikes, good sized offroad training area before heading out on to the roads and knowledgable and friendly instructor.

I did my CBT with another training company and thought it was very good.
I found they didn't do the Direct Access course so went with Triumph Training after recommendation from a friend.
Within a day of being on the course I realized exactly how poor my CBT training had been.
These guys are properly excellent. I mean REALLY REALLY good.
The day before my test(s) they gave me an instructor for one to one training for a whole afternoon! That CAN'T have been profitable for them.
I passed my Direct Access course 1st time, that says it all really.

I have done my CBT course 2 years ago and went back to this school to do my DAS Course. It was an amazing time. The instructors are incredible,their knowledge is amazing and their teaching technique is what get you through the test. Thanks to the whole team which allowed me to pass my Mod1 and Mod2 first time. With 0 faults on the Mod1 and 2 Minor on the Mod2 which were not to lack of training but my own doing. Thanks again to the amazing team.

I did my CBT followed by DAC with Triumph Training over 5 days. Loved every minute of it - great instructors (Brian, Malcolm + Maggie) were good humoured and very knowledgeable.
They have access to the test centre's actual test area and we made good use of it so it felt familiar on the day.
I passed both tests first time thanks to their instruction. Initially the cost looks higher than other places but you get all equipment (+bikes) included in that price.
I would recommend.

Paid over £350 for training only to receive verbal abuse directly and indirectly from instructor Brian on the test day. Training centre refused to refund my money after my complaint. Would strongly avoid this training centre and instructor.

First rate. A professional operation with Nick at the helm. Friendly yet excellent training leading to passing Mod 1 & 2 over a 5 day period. Special thanks to Brian, Danny and Martin. Enjoy those socks chaps!

Excellent. Passed mod 1&2 after 5 days training. Professional and enjoyable experience. Started training with Brian who was great, then moved on with Pete who pushed me exactly where I needed to go. Can't recommend these guys enough. Oh, and their training centre is very close to the test centre which helps you know the area and it becomes very familiar.

THE BEST !!!! If you want to learn to ride and pass your test with confidence use Triumph. They are the nicest people with great trainers who make your experience fun and informative. Passed my exams today and it is all thanks to them.

Completed my CBT course last week with Danny and John. I had never sat on a motorbike before and bring a rather rotund 44 yr old was put at ease immediately. The tuition was excellent, individualised and I felt supported throughout the day, I cannot recommend triumph enough. Now all they need to do is bring Exeter's bus drivers into line and stop them tailgating!
Thank you triumph training, an excellent day from a very happy boy.

Completed my CBT there this week. What an enjoyable experience! Instructors were fantastic (Danny/Brian) made the whole day fun and enjoyable with their relaxed style of instruction. Couldn't have asked for a better introduction to motorcycling. Will be back to complete my full licence soon.
