Learner's Permit Training is a 2 Day Training Course
The Learner’s Permit Training is a two-day training course, you are required to attend and to pass all aspects prior to obtaining your learner permit.
The training course includes off-road training conducted safely on our range and there is an on-road assessment. In addition to the existing motorcycle knowledge test.

What is the Check Ride?
After you have successfully completed your learners permit you’ll need to complete an on-road practical skills check (also known as a Check Ride) before you can book in for your motorcycle license assessment.
RideTek recommends booking your Check Ride after you have a decent amount of experience of road riding, around the six month time frame. This should give you the opportunity to have sufficient training.
You’ll need to complete the check ride at least one month before you want to go for your license.
