About us

Our school

As from November 2022, Advanced Riding Techniques are very proud to welcome you to our brand new motorcycle training School, Woodlands.

A unique site situated just off Wallage Lane in Rowfant, see our photo gallery 65,000 sq. foot in total, surrounded by beautiful Woodlands!

We are next door to the old Colas site and the (Closed/Listed) buildings of the Old Rowfant Station on the Worth Way.
Fully equipped, self contained facility with a comfortable indoor classroom, kit/drying room, changing facilities, toilets, Wi-Fi and a full size Kitchen for that all important tea or coffee?

Most importantly, 12,000 sq. ft tarmac surfaced, safe off road training area for CBT lessons and module 1 practical training sessions which is open seven days a week. Which for your safety  means starting every single day in a safe secure off road area, not just weekends! Others might only use car parks or school playgrounds on weekends. Straight onto a public road Mon-Fri? What cost can you put on your safety, enjoyment and convenience?

If you live in the RH postcode, we are the original motorbike school from Crawley, based in Crawley since 1996!

Here at ART we take everything we do very seriously including the bikes that we teach you on. We buy brand new motorcycles every 2 to 4 years, our Hondas we change every year. Always ask before you book lessons with others, how old are your bikes? Unfortunately it is not uncommon to find that some will use bikes that are a lot older or cheap Chinese imports. If in doubt, come to see our bikes & kit before spending your money.

Every month (as well as the daily checks) all bikes and scooters are given a full safety check and details are recorded.  We have a very simply policy on maintenance, we do not cut corners, we only use genuine manufacturers parts and high quality tyres (Metzler, Pirelli, Bridgestone, Etc).

Currently we use:
Yamaha, MT-07, Honda CB500F, MSX 125 "Grom", CBF125F, SH 125 Mode, Vision 50. Kawasaki, Z650-N, Z125 & KLX125

Included in the price of all our motorcycle lessons is a fully comprehensive safety kit, of new helmets, armoured motorcycle jackets, armoured motorcycle trousers, gloves, motorcycle boots.

 We supply boots, size 6 - 12, gloves, jacket and trousers xs - xxl. Helmets sizes from XS to XXL, if you are unsure of size you must please visit our school prior to your training course taking place so we may size you correctly.
We include fuel on all of our courses, you will not be taken to a petrol station and told you have to fill it up every day!
