Did my DAC with ATB and managed to clean sweep both the MOD1 & MOD2.
The team are very clear and knowledgeable, very approachable and down to earth. They might seem like they're riding you a bit but if you listen, leave your ego off the bike and do half of what they say you will pass!
Highly recommended, had a great time, Big thanks to the team.

A big thanks to Danny, Heather and Nigel for their help with my CBT. Danny for the class room tuition and pad training, Heather and Nigel for their help with my road trip through the sun, rain, lightning and a few other road users, Their experience and professional attitude reassured my road experience with enjoyment. Great people, cheers.

I highly recommend anyone looking to learn to ride a motorbike to go to ATB Rider Training. The team of instructors are absolutely amazing, professional and patient. I came to ATB through a recommendation for my CBT back in September and wanted to do the direct access course to get my full A licence.
I did it with the help of Nigel, Heather, Norman, Jon, Jonathan, Andy & Dan who are friendly, caring and encourage you every step of the way.
I will definitely be back for some advanced rider training as I continue on my new journey. Thank you

Great friendly people and excellent tuition. I passed both tests first time after a full training program with ATB and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. It’s great that they stay in touch about events and group rides too.

I decided in January that after almost 20 years off a bike I wanted to get back on one and quite impulsively booked a CBT here. I enjoyed the CBT very much, had a good laugh with the instructors and certainly regained the biker bug. I ordered a bike that week and went back to them with a challenge to get me through my full A license before my bike was due to be delivered in mid Feb!
Heather was able to schedule in all my lessons and tests, and I booked onto a four day course.
Day one: First half was on a 125 around sheffield practicing junctions and manouvers. Second half of the day was on a Suzuki SV650 with further road practice and instruction.
Day two: An early ride over to the Rotherham test centre on the 650 to practice on the MOD1 test pad. U turns, avoidance, slaloms and emergency stops galore! The rest of the day was spent practicing road riding, junctions, observations, etc.
Day three: MOD1 test in the morning (which I passed, no minors!) and the rest of the afternoon spent practicing on the road.
Day four: Some more road practice and then MOD2 test time (passed again, no minors!).
Throughout the process, the family and instructors at ATB were friendly, funny, patient, clear, and gave great feedback. The equipment and bikes were all in good order (Heather ensures all the bikes are spotless!!). Even following the test, we're all still in touch - There's no 'test done, money taken, out of the door' here - there's a clear community and family of bikers that these guys are building.
I highly recommend this place to get your bike training done, I will certainly be back for my advanced training needs.

Did my CBT, rider training, mod 1 and mod 2 with ATB, passed all with no minors thanks to the guidance from Heather, Nigel and Jonathan. Absolutely brilliant company and people. They take a no nonsense approach and guide you properly into becoming a confident rider. I highly and honestly recommend them if you want to learn to ride and pass your tests. Most genuine people I could've wished to learn with.

This riding school is very professional, ensuring that the lesson plan is tailored to the learner. I did my CBT, MOD1 and MOD2 with the ATB and all passed first time round. They helped me with scheduling the lessons around my work. The learner bikes are in good condition, the riding gear also available to borrow if required. Overall great team of instructors who will ensure you enjoy your riding lessons and at the same time are well prepared to take your tests.

Very positive all round experience. I did the 7-day intense course which included CBT, Mod 1 & Mod 2 test and training on the other days. This was expertly arranged by Heather.
The facility is great. There bikes and safety equipment are also great. They pay a lot of attention to safety at all times which is reassuring and maintain all of their equipment to the highest standard.
The lessons with Andrew, Nigel, Jonathan and John were all very good and they were all very engaging and professional whilst being friendly and easy to understand at all times.
Thanks a million guys!

Can't praise this training school enough. After a 30 year absense of riding a bike, they made sure I got back up to speed with excellent hands on tuition. Passed both Mod tests first time and feel really confident that I am well prepared to take to the road again. Thanks to my trainers, Andy (CBT), Jonathan & John (DAS). A++++

Highly recommended. Atb doesn’t only focus on training but also helps you with getting into biker life, social events, connections and social rides. Nick and Heather are one of the nicest people I’ve ever come across ❤️. Got my full license in just 1 month.

I would like to thank the staff and instructors at ATB for a fantastic experience, as a 51 year old car driver doing my first CBT I was quite apprehensive but the instruction I received put me at ease and gave me confidence enough to pass.
A first class course from a first class company ( I will turn off my indicator) I hear it in my sleep !

Thanks so much to John, Andy, John A and all the guys at ATB for getting me through my full bike training and tests in just short of 3 weeks. You were patient, supportive and superb throughout. I would highly recommend ATB to anyone wanting to take their full bike licence. Top job!

Done my cbt today with these guys, highly recommend they’re super friendly ecpecially Dan who taught me, I’m 16 I’ve had some experience riding off-road just make sure you know a little of what your getting yourself into. Also while doing some of the manoeuvres in the yard it may feel a little nerve racking but once you get on the road everything you’ve learned will start to take shape and it will feel a lot better just stay focused. Revise a bit on the Highway Code before hand and some of the road signs and you’ll be fine!

Had a very similar experience with the woman on the telephone as previous reviewer.
When I called to chase up a call back I was promised. I got shouted at and told she was very busy and I should have more patience!
I had the patience to wait until she hung up, then called another training centre.

Honestly I can’t speak high enough of these guys. I did my CBT the other day, John made the learning experience extremely easy but fun at the same time.
Looking forward to booking my full test next year with them.

I've just passed my Mod 2 and I wanted to share how wonderful the school has been. Particular mention has to go to John, all the instructors are good - knowledgeable, experienced and patient but I found John exceptional. He is very clear, understands how each individual learns so that he can really develop you as a rider and pull out the best from you. He also made the experience fun, really encourages you and I felt genuinely privileged to have done my riding journey with him. Love the family feel of the school, whilst still being professional and special hug to Norman, for looking after the bike so well (that I managed to drop more than once!!!!) Can thoroughly recommend the school.

My son passed with them today . The owner and trainer lovely blokes make you feel comfortable. It's full training unlike some school who pass kids on mopeds after a hour. My son was on the bike training all day he loved it he was beaming at end of it . It's also the cheapest ! and they have lovely dogs 😀👍
