Professional instructors who are very patient. Great quality clean bikes and yard to practice in. Highly recommend.
Can't thank Nick and John enough for taking me from complete novice through to completing my MOD 2. Thanks you 😊
Cbt course
Great experience! Nick was the best instructor and I will be back to do my A2 as soon as possible
Top company
Top communication from the company! Top instructors! With some off the most best prices in the UK, sat my cbt and passed will definitely be returning to do my bigger bike license once I get the hang of my 125 :)
Superb place for training
Had a great day doing my CBT with a nice and chilled out pace with good facilities onsite , nick the instructor was very knowledgeable and patient. When it comes around to do my mod1 and 2 I'll be giving phoenix a call , thanks again
Thoroughly enjoyable CBT
Thoroughly enjoyed completing my CBT with phoenix. Nick was my instructor on the day, he was very pleasant and incredibly professional, he also had a lot of knowledge and experience with biking. Would highly recommend to everyone that wants to complete a CBT or more.
Best CBT teacher
The teacher was very insightful and friendly, helped me get rid of my bad habits and we all had a laugh
Fantastic company and incredibly…
Fantastic company and incredibly knowledgeable trainer! Nick was extremely patient, what a fantastic all around guy. Not only does he know his stuff but the way he teaches is very easy to understand and follow. 100% recommend!
Wouldn’t choose anyone else
I have been riding on my CBT for almost two years. Had my conversion to bigger bike, MOD 1 training & test and MOD 2 training and test. My experience with the Wigan branch.
Nick is one of the best, thoroughly explained everything, demonstrated when needed. After a crash last year I lost a lot of faith in handling of the bike but he managed to break through that fear and rebuild my trust in the bike.
He holds a higher standard than they expect on the test and with his mentoring you will manage to get to that standard and breeze through the tests. Broke down how to safely ride on the roads after I picked up a few bad habits from my own time on the road.
I have gained not only my unrestricted licence but a vast wealth of knowledge and confidence. A few friends along the way.
To keep it short I have given my main reasons above but this team cares and you can see the passion they have, and the drive to give you the skills you will need.
A big thank you to the office for handling the process with care and speed before my CBT ran out. Thank you to the instructors for helping me on this journey and improving my skills, safety and enjoyment of motorcycles.
I look forward to taking some advanced riding lessons with Pheonix.
100/10 I would highly recommend going with Pheonix, from start to finish each step taken with pride, care and mentorship.
Great Instructor
Great Instructor, no pressure at all, enjoyed all my training, would definately reccomend

Nike is best in the business in my humble opinion. He's the reason I was able to make my CBT. He made sure we got the basics right before we hit the yard.
Though I got through after a forth session with him, it was worth every minute, motivation was of the hook I tell you.
He was patient with us all and made us at home with him. I love the energy.
I'll recommend Phoenix if you want to be a good Rider.

John was my instructor and made the whole process easier than when I first did my CBT years ago on a rev n go. Helped my concerns about gear shifts and very helpful and couldn't have asked for a better day
Thank you so much mr Joe

I chose Phoenix from several local options due to their excellent initial communication. The ladies I spoke with were professional, helpful, and made me feel welcome. In contrast, I found other companies in the area to be more expensive and overly aggressive in their approach.
My experience with Phoenix was outstanding, starting with John, who was a true gentleman and made transitioning to a larger bike enjoyable and stress-free. My main instructor, Nick, was exceptional. He made me feel at ease while teaching me at a high level, demonstrating dedication and expertise.
With Nick's training, I passed my Module 1 and Module 2 tests first time, despite having minimal prior experience. I attribute my success to Nick's exceptional teaching ability.
My only concern was not being able to spend an hour at the centre training for my Module 1 test centre course. This was done in another area replicating the centre .Unfortunately, this may have contributed to an unpleasant experience with a rude and very unprofessional examiner at Atherton Manchester test centre. However, this does not reflect on Phoenix, and I was satisfied with the training I received.
I highly recommend Phoenix Motorcycle Training for their professionalism, expertise, and supportive environment. I particularly appreciate the attention and care shown by John and Nick, which made my learning experience positive and successful.
Rating: 5/5 stars
Recommendation: Phoenix Motorcycle Training is an excellent choice for anyone seeking professional, supportive, and high-quality motorcycle training.
Jb is a very good instructor
They do everything correct and give you the most possible help they can

Nick and John were amazing
Nick and John were amazing at your Wigan branch! They listened to me and gave practical feedback and helped me pass within 7 days. I would not have passed without their help. Thank you very much. I would very much recommend them!
