Yep did mine at LSM. Great friendly bunch and taylor the training to suit the individual. It's round the back of crown point retail park. Do a right at the mini roundabout as you go in, follow it round to the left and it's a couple of hundred yards on your right. I did my DAS a couple years ago. Did 2 days on a 125, 2.5 days on a GS500 then took the test (and passed:D). Can't fully remember but I think it was about £650 including the CBT and test but excluding the theory. I had Dave and Phil - Both great guys. Good luck.

Phil taught me, good teacher, mixed advice with not being afraid to give you a boll0cking when its deserved, I got a few as it took me a while to get out of my attack everything commuter mindset :p He could see that I'd understand that, he was a lot softer with one of the more nervous guys who was on a lesson with us.

Hi there Pickles

I did my CBT with 2wheelskool in Bradford. Trained with a bloke called Loz. Good fun.

Then had lessons with Leeds School of Motoring. Had two instructors. Phil, was good, but harsh and made me cry. Dave, was good fun.
