Under the M-GLS, in order to obtain a motorcycle licence you must complete both an off-road and on-road assessment. The off-road training range assessment will assess your ability to ride through curves, change paths, brake and ride slowly. The on-road assessment will be used to assess your observation skills, speed management, road positioning, application of road rules, and motorcycle control.
On-road training and assessment will confirm that you have the necessary riding skills to control and manoeuvre a motorcycle safely in real traffic and on typical road conditions.
Courses go ahead regardless of the weather.
What You’ll Receive
Individual on-range training and on-road assessing
Use of a helmet, gloves, protective jacket, hi-vis vest (if required)
