Hi Ossie and Tina,
I just wanted to say a big thank you for the getting me through the Direct Access course first time - I've been out on the road quite a bit since and I'm loving it - I can't wait for the Summer!
I've attached the photo we took outside the test centre for your gallery... better late than never, eh?!
Best regards
Emily
p.s. feel free to put a comment up on your site based on the above - or I can do one if you'd prefer. Let me know.

comments: Hi Ossie and Tine,
Thanks very much for the fantastic service I received furing the Direct Access. The consulation beforehand was very useful and saved money. The standard of the course was 100% and I'm so glad I went with you guys!
Hope to see you soon!
Sam
Dear Tina and Ossie,
i wanted to take the opportunity to thank you both. you have a great school, with equipment and bikes in the best possible shape. First Tina for your patience and organisation skills and then Ossie for the great lessons. Although i have had my A1 for nearly 15 years, i knew i had picked up a lot of bad habits along the way, especially if i wanted to pass a full A license. I really enjoyed Ossie's teaching, advices and especially his great attitude (where does that patience come from, I will never know!).
Again thank you very much for helping me get my A license without any stress, although i was dispointed to have make 3 minor marks on test day (even the examiner was making fun of me for being disapointed for succesfully passing the exam), with your teaching it should have been a nil mistakes!
Regards, Oliver.

comments: Ozzie, Tina and the other chaps at A-Z, Thank You. The Training is top notch, I passed my Direct Access and I had a good laugh. To anyone reading this wondering if A-Z is the school for them -YOU WOULD BE A MUG TO GO ANYWHERE ELSE!.
Thanks Again.

comments: Thank you very much! Excellent and practical advice to pass the test and drive safely! I would recommend your course to anyone.

comments: Ossie and Tina at A2Z provide the perfect environment for learning to ride motorcycles at any level. I have trained with them from my CBT through to my Direct Access and the quality of the service and value they represent is unbeatable. The training takes you above and beyond the standard required for the test, rendering it a mere formality. The test asside, the training comprehensively prepares you to become a motorcyclist with advice on buying, selling, equipment and maintenance. I would recommend A2Z to anyone, and in fact I have. Thanks for a great experience! Best Regards. John Wardle. Bwwaaaarrp!

comments: Hi Ossie (and Tina),
Thanks for helping me to get my full licence! :)
I really liked how you only made me do as many days as I actually needed, as opposed to what larger schools do. The way that you adapted lessons once my fellow student and I had mastered a skill was also very helpful, so we didn't waste any time. I'm going to recommend you to anyone I know interested in riding, even if it's just their CBT. See you on the roads!
Thomas
Hi guys,
Just thought I'd frop you a quick line to say thanks very much for all your help in getting me through the test and training over the half term. Rest assured I shall be recommending you to anyone who mentions a desire to learn to ride a motorbike!
Ossie may remember that I had a commissioning interview the day of the test in the afternoon, thankfully I was successful at that as well so an excellent day was had!
I've left a comment on the website as requested.
Thanks very much again for all your support and help, you both provide a service second to none.
All the best ,Philip Jones.

comments: Thanks Ozzy for your expert and always professional rider tutelage on my "Direct Access" course. From beginner to an almost faultless pass today on my final unrestricted A1 exam (in such a short time and on the larger motorbike) is a testament to the great service and patience you provide at A2Z. Keep up the good work! I'll be sure to send more customers your way!
Thanks again, Mike.

comments: Hi Ossie & Tina
Thanks for getting me through my A2 test first
time....despite the rain!
Having previously done a CBT elsewhere, it was
refreshing to have such a professional and
safety-conscious approach to the training and
now I feel confident to get out there on a
bigger, geared bike with safe habits and solid
knowledge!
All the Best, Ian.

comments: Hi Ossie and Tina,
Thank you for successfully preparing me for my DAS. I welcomed Ossie's professional and patient approach to the training. I was made to feel welcome and at ease. I passed the test first time. As you know, my first test was postponed due to black ice on the roads - thank you kindly for offering to put me into one of your other test slots and moreover making the time to come to the test center and prepare me for the test on the day. Very satisfied customer!

comments: Hi Guys
Just a short note to thankyou so much for getting me through my direct access test first time. Although no test could ever be fun, the two oif you helped to make it as pleasant and stress free as possible. And I really appreciated the 'one of the family' hospitality. Happy new year to you both.

comments: Hi Ossie and Tina,
Thanks so much for getting me safely through the DAS course! I'm so pleased I passed first time and in only 4 days!
I'm going to buy a bike very soon and get out on the roads and have some fun!
Ossie, your training and attitude to the whole course was professional and fun and I really enjoyed a great week!
I recommend A2Z Training to anyone thinking of getting on 2 wheels!
Thanks again and best of luck with the new tests!

comments: Hey Ossie and Tina
I can't thank you enough for helping me pass my DAS first time. Since I was a kid I've always wanted to get a full license.
Thanks for teaching me to ride safely so that I can enjoy riding even more than I did before. I didn't realise until I took you course how many
bad habits I had picked up, but now I ride far better.
Thanks again and I would recommend your school to other because you guys have that personal touch
and get to know your pupils.
Regards, Kwaku.

comments: Hi Guys,
Just a quick note to say thanks very much for a really enjoyable 4 days on the direct access course. Oz was a great instructor to have, and showed great patience, especially with my immense buffoonery when it came to mastering the u-turn! You run a very good school, which I would thoroughly recommend to anyone. All the best.

comments: HI Ossie and Tina,
I have just passed my full bike driving licence whit A2Z driving school.
I have really enjoyed the course inspite of that I did not have any motorcycle experience before.
The instructor Ossie was very helpfull, patient and friendly.
I am really grateful and I would recommend to everyone who wants to get bike licence.
Thanks again,All the best

comments: It was great to have been recommended for the CBT to you. The mix of friendliness and professionalism was very good for this middle aged man going back to motorcycling. Hope to see you in the spring to take on the full m/c test. Definitely with you.
Thanks and all the best

comments: I would like to say a big "Thank you" to Ossie and Tina for helping me get my DAS. I didn't think that it would be possible for a newbie to learn to drive a 500cc motorbike and obtain a full license in a week.
The whole thing was fun and Ossie was quite patient expecially in the beginning. Another thanks to Tina for helping me get the practical test at a suitable time (specially with work).
There were no suprises such as changing bikes at the last minute, there was only one instructor and there were never more than 2 people under Ossie bring supervised which allowed me to concentrate more on my weaker points.
All the best guys...
Kind regards , Tim.

comments: I took my CBT with A2Z december 2007 and managed to pass with little experience on 2 wheels thanks to Ossie and Tina's help. After a few months of riding i longed for a bigger bike and thought it was time i took my full bike test; having passed my CBT with A2Z, I thought it would only suitable if i took my test with A2Z. The level of patience and encouragement is unheard of. Ossie the instructor was very helpful and gave constructive criticisms which were much appreciated and useful in the final test.
There was an ever unending emphasis on safety and planning your journey, which did pay off in the long run. The cost of training and taking the test is very reasonable compared to other traing centres which cost almost a fortune and oesn't necessarily mean you get the same level of advice. I have to say a big thank you to both Ossie and Yina for their help and putting me through my paces and would gladly advice anyone to use their sevices and they ouldn't regret it.
Kind Regards,
Lanzo

Thanks for helping me to gain my bike licence at the first attempt. From taking my CBT to practical test within two weeks was a fantastic achievement for me. The CBT and DAS courses were well constructed and delivered and I would highly recommend anyone wishing to gain their motor cycle licence to give you a call as the training was first class. Once again many thanks, Neill.

comments: Dear Tina and Ossie,
Thanks for all your help, guidance and patience (even when I dropped the bike... sorry sorry!). I’m really thrilled that you’ve got me from being from someone who had never even ridden a scooter, to pass the Direct Access course. I’m getting withdrawal pangs already!!! I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending your school; in fact I’m already trying to convince some of my friends that they must sign up. Thanks again, Sally.

comments: Fantastic people, fantastic service, fantastic confidence and respect to bikes!
I passed CBT and then "direct access" with first attempt!!!
My friend did it as well, my brother is doing right now and I am suggesting anybody who is looking for quality and positive learning sessions with Ossie to give a call to lovely Tina!
Thanks Tina and Ossie!
C u soon!

comments: Hi Oz, Tina and Jackson
Thank you so much for the CBT this Saturday. I left you feeling completely confident to get out on the road.
Went for a ride on my lovely Vespa Saturday afternoon and Sunday - FANTASTIC!
The course was explained clearly and simply, and we were all made to feel relaxed as we got on the
bikes for the first time. All questions were answered, and we had a good giggle to.
Once again, thanks so much and maybe I'll drive by one weekend to show you what a real bike looks like!!
Best wishes
Nancy, or is it Jenny, Yancy, Jance, Jane, Malcolm - you choose Bill!

comments: Just want to say a big thankyou to Ozzie & Tina for helping me get on the road through both CBT & DAS courses.
Both courses were great fun & I was very impressed that Ozzie is more interested in making you a good, thinking rider, rather than just teaching the basics needed to get a pass.
Anyway, pick up my Ninja on Tuesday & the weather's getting warmer...perfect!
Cheers, Steve .

comments: Hi Ossie,Tina & Jackson
Just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help on my CBT, you guys made it both fun and informative.
definately wish i'd have done this sooner as im now inspired by Jackson's stories and Alan's Iridium visor to complete my Direct Access course.
I will definately come to you guys when i do my Direct Access and i would advise anyone reading this to do the same.
Best Wishes, Warren.

comments: Ossie, thank you very much for your dedicated mentoring and Tina for your support through the whole process. I don't know how often you get someone with my degree of incompetence when it comes to making a u-turn but somehow you got me through and made me a better rider in the process. My most sincere thanks. Ben.
Ossie, Tina,
A quick note to thank you both very much for getting me through the A2 test. Tina, thanks for the excellent organisation and particularly for your help in organising the test times to suit my work diary (!) Ozzie, it was a pleasure meeting you and I thought you were incredibly diligent, patient and thorough in prepping me. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending A to Z to anyone. And if I decide to upgrade to the full manual test (which Max said was only a matter of time) I’ll be in touch!
Finally, I know Ozzie secretly loved driving my ET4 to the test centre yesterday!
Check out the attached evidence – look at the enthusiasm!
Thanks
Neil .
PS. Did Max pass?
I did my CBT and a Direct Access course with A2Z Rider Training.
A2Z Rider Training made the lessons interesting and enjoyable.
Ossie is a brilliant instructor and very patient.
I passed the module 1 test on 21-07-09.
I have now passed the module 2 test today 3-08-09!
A2Z are friendly and professional and I'm really glad I took lessons with them!
Thanks Ossie and Tina!

Hi Ossie and Tina,
I just wanted to thank you so much for all the help, advice and training you provided for me to develop from an absolute beginner to passing my Direct Access course first time! I would definitely recommend you guys to anyone thinking of any sort of motorbike training: Ossie's training is clear, patient and confidence inspiring, whilst actually teaching you to ride well and safely, rather than just trying to pass a test...thanks once again!
Suhel
Hi Ossie and Tina,
I just wanted to say thanks for the brilliant service (again!), I am so
pleased to have passed my A2 parts 1&2 at the first attempt today.
A2Z really provides a top class professional and friendly service and I am
glad I chose them for my CBT (March 08) and A2 instruction (Sept 09). Ossie
is a brilliant instructor who doesn't miss a thing and who explains
everything in an easy to understand way. He gives good, frequent feedback
which really helps you improve on the things you find challenging.
I would recommend A2Z to anyone as I think they are a great company to do
your motorcycle training with.
Please feel free to put these comments on your website.
Thanks again!
Tim Yates.
Ossie & Tina
Just wanted to take this opportunity to say a big THANK YOU to you both.
Tina your patience with all the details of booking times and dates and keeping me informed every step of the way and encouragement was first rate and really appreciated
Ossie as a teacher your were excellent - your patience and professionalism were 2nd to none. Your knowledge and experience of biking safely were much appreciated and you were able to get me to pass my module 1 and 2 first time but much more than that you gave me the confidence of being on a bike & confidence about riding a bike in London under any conditions (which to me is much more valuable than being able to pass a test).
Thank you so much I shall recommend your school to anyone that I know who is interested in becoming a biker.
All that being said - I
N E V E R
want to do another U turn as long as I live.
