# Abbey Rider Training
Abbey Rider Training is Swindon's longest-established motorcycle training school, pioneering the free introduction lesson to help prospective riders make informed decisions. They serve anyone from complete novices seeking their first licence through to experienced riders wanting advanced skills or refresher training for those returning to motorcycling.
What sets Abbey Rider Training apart is their commitment to honest assessment and bespoke course structure. Rather than pushing intensive courses or quoting unseen, they insist on seeing you ride first to recommend appropriate training—a philosophy rare in the industry. They're accredited by the Motorcycle Industry Accreditation Centre (MCIAC), meaning they're independently inspected to exceed DVSA standards.
The school prioritises enjoyment over endurance, avoiding gruelling course schedules that leave riders exhausted. They're transparent about pricing too, explicitly refusing to undercut competitors with unrealistic quotes that ultimately cost riders money through either unnecessary training or insufficient preparation leading to test failures.
As a Honda-approved school, they can offer attractive deals on new motorcycles and financing options for training, though affiliation with Honda isn't required to train with them. Their expertise spans the entire rider journey: complete novice through to full licence, advanced lessons, and "Rusty Riders" programmes for those returning after time away.
Abbey Rider Training focuses on delivering value through quality instruction and honest consultation, making them a trustworthy choice for serious motorcycle training in Swindon.
