We are certified RIDE FOREVER Training Providers

Bronze Certified Rider

The Bronze course is aimed at riders with a Learner’s licence and riders on their Restricted Class 6 (motorcycle) licence who are riding LAMS-approved motorbikes. The course takes riders on local roads, predominantly in an urban setting although some higher speed roads may be encountered.

This training course specifically focuses on NZTA’s Competency Based Training Assessment (CBTA) competencies and tasks, supporting riders to pass the Class 6 CBTA Restricted or Full licence assessment.

Silver Certified Rider

The Silver course is designed to assist with taking Restricted riders to their Full Licence as well as offering 'returning riders' a course which will focus on both urban riding and riding in more challenging, open-road environments at higher, open-road speeds.

Gold Certified Rider

The Gold course has the fundamental approach of the Ride Forever Syllabus, while offering a higher skill level. It includes more technical aspects of riding such as trail braking and counter-steering. It allows for a more focused approach to training by allowing a club/rider to build their own course content.

Urban Certified Rider

The urban commuter training course is a half day training course that is ideal for riders wanting to stay safe while commuting and improve their riding skills.

The training is aimed at motorcycle riders whose riding is primarily commuting in urban environments and traffic. New motorcycle riders looking to build early skills and confidence can also find this course valuable.

GETTING STARTED

LEARN TO RIDE

The first step in obtaining your Motorcycle learners licence is knowing how to ride the bike :)

No experience? No problem!
The Two Bald Bikers will patiently take you through your first experience on the bike and make sure you get it right from the get go.

This is a three hour course and will only cost you $130 including bike hire. Want to know more? contact us

BASIC HANDLING SKILLS

A must do if you wish to gain a motorcycle licence. We limit numbers to a maximum of two students per instructor to ensure that you get the personalised training and coaching you deserve.
No time in the weekend? No problem, we are happy to run a course in the evenings during the week.
We believe our BHS course is the most cost effective you will find in Wellington, our course fee of $170 includes bike hire, assessment fee and hot and cold drinks (concentration suffers if you become dehydrated)
Even better, if you have booked onto both the Learn to Ride and Basic Handling courses we will provide lunch as well! Want to know more? contact us

Experienced Rider Health Check

Let's be honest, after riding for a while we can all pick up some bad habits, and the good ones can slip a bit. We all spend money on our bikes, on our gear, on (hugely overpriced) Registration. Why not spend a little on you. Don't think you are riding the best you can, KNOW you are :) Want to know more?

About Us

Ross Gratton

I am committed to providing you with the most valuable training and the most pleasant experience possible.


I have been riding for over twenty five years, or so I thought. The truth is that after undergoing advanced rider training and testing with the Institute of Advanced Motorists – motorcycle division (IAM ) I found that what I had really been doing was riding the same first year over and over again.


Let’s be honest, it is all too easy to sit on the sidelines and complain about things, that is not what I’m about, I want to be the change I want to see in the world. 

Stuart Nelson


My motivation is to see motorcyclists having more fun, being confident and being safer on the roads.

I have ridden bikes for forty years, like most riders, I considered myself a good competent motorcyclist, never having had an accident on the road in that time. However, after undertaking training and testing with IAM, I realised how little I really knew about RoadCraft.

Having been tested to an international standard and passed, I realised how much I needed to improve my own riding abilities in order to pass them on to you.



What we are about



“God only made so many perfect heads..... The rest He covered in hair”

After many years of riding individually, we both came to a place where we wanted to see if our riding was up to scratch, so we joined the IAM and after literally hundreds of hours of targeted practice we graduated as Advanced Riders.

We know the value of the journey we have been on so really the only proactive choice was to study and qualify as NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) approved instructors and pay the learning forward. So here we are, our only motivation is to see motorcyclists having more fun, being confident and being safer on the roads, we want to make a difference.

We know that we will not get rich doing this, but that’s not really the point is it? With over 65 years of combined riding experience we know we can help you.
