# All Bikes Motorcycle Training Ltd
All Bikes Motorcycle Training is a family-run motorcycle instruction business based in North Colchester, serving riders across North Essex and South Suffolk. Founded and operated by Steve Cook—a passionate motorcyclist since 1976 and qualified instructor since 2009—the company delivers tailored training for both novice and experienced riders seeking professional development on two wheels.
The business specialises in CBT (Compulsory Basic Training) and DAS (Direct Access Scheme) instruction, with particular expertise in A2 category training. Steve's exceptional pass rates reflect his thorough approach, utilising 50% of training time in Ipswich near the test centre to familiarise students with potential test routes and build confidence.
What distinguishes All Bikes is their commitment to genuine skill development rather than test-focused shortcuts. The company deliberately avoids hard-selling bikes, helmets or ancillary services, instead focusing exclusively on high-quality instruction delivered with personality. Their modern fleet includes ABS-equipped direct access bikes, with one lowered motorcycle specifically designed to suit shorter riders and women who benefit from confident ground contact.
The family ethos extends throughout the operation—Steve's children both hold full motorcycle licenses obtained through his instruction. Beyond formal training, the business actively engages the motorcycling community, participating in vintage trials clubs and community events. Their philosophy centres on discovering each student's "inner biker" whilst injecting genuine enjoyment into the learning experience.
