After several amazing years of running our own lessons and giving women their first taste of riding, VC Moto-School is switching things up this season. We’re thrilled to now be referring our moto-school community to the phenomenal Moto Workshop—an inspiring organisation led by our friend and long-time VC instructor, Charlotte Barnes.

Charlotte and her team are doing incredible work breaking down the barriers women face when getting into motorcycling, offering supportive, confidence-building workshops and lessons.

Why the change?

You asked—we listened! We’ve often been asked, “Can I do my CBT or full licence with you guys?”

Until now, our sessions were just tasters. But now, with Moto Workshop X PassMasters Motorcycle Training in Sudbury Hill near Wembley (where the lessons will be held), riders can have the option to go all the way—from their very first ride to a CBT and even their full licence in a supportive and safe environment with an amazing team.

Moto Workshop’s lessons are perfect if:

  • You’ve never ridden a motorcycle before and want to try it in a welcoming, supportive space

  • It's appealing to know you can take your first lesson with the same team who could guide you through your CBT 

  • You’ve attempted your CBT but didn’t quite feel ready to ride solo

  • You did your CBT on a scooter but want to experience riding a geared bike

What’s next?

Head over to motoworkshop.co.uk/motoschool to register your interest. Lessons start in May, and with small group sizes, spots are v limited—so don’t snooze!
