I'd recommend 3CMT too. I did my DAS with them. The routes for training go around the Reading area generally. Even did a rideout to Fox's one of the days!

Yup, Stu is a great bloke and one of the best riders I've known. There are so many dodgy trainers out there and not only is he cheaper than all the others but you know you are being trained by the book and then some. He really gives insight into why you need to do certain things. Once you pass your test things become interesting if you do any advanced riding with him.

Lightning Motorcycle Training.

http://www.lightningpass.com/jkcm/

Located Reading side of Caversham Bridge. Did mine there a few years ago and they were great. Instructors were highly competent/a laugh. They also know all the Reading test routes so will take you everywhere you might go. There are only 3 places that the examiners ask you to do a u-turn in Reading!

The bikes are all pretty new(few years max), nice mix of CB/GS/ER so you can choose the one that suits you.

Not in Reading, but I would recommend Bristol Motorcycle Training. I went there cos they can get a DAS course and test with 2 weeks notice. Was also shed loads cheaper. oh and they put you up in a caravan onsite for free.

I liked doing it in Bristol as it meant that I didnt know the roads or have any bad habits to un-learn on the roads like I have in Reading

You're going to have to elaborate on that.

I did my training there and they were great. I also know a lot of people that have been there and passed/been impressed.

If you want to rubbish a companies reputation then justify your comments ffs!
