hi

posted this elsewhere but i'm told your the best lot to ask. I hope to be doing my DAS in the next month or two and wondered if anyone could recomend a good school in the leeds area or any thing i should look out for or avoid when choosing one.

any advice would be great
thanks

Leeds school of motorcycling, down the south near the armouries and stuff.

I was with them, sound people.

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

). 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

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.
