All of our Q-Ride motorbike training and license assessment courses in Mackay  are designed for you to learn new skills. The training methods we employ and the way we deliver  the Qride content makes the entire experience quick, relaxed and enjoyable.

Our standard Q Ride Training and Assessment day is broken up into 3 training components:

Component 1

 This classroom component prepares you with the mental skill needed to ride out on the road.

We begin our Qride course with a theory presentation . This is an open discussion and assessment  on all aspects of road riding and covers several topics with particular relevance to motorbike riders i.e., safety, attitude, protective clothing, road statistics ,road positioning, hazard perception, forward planning, appropriate speed, road and weather conditions, following distances, the need to be clearly visible to other road users and  why motorcyclists are more vulnerable than other road users are but to name a few.

Motorcycle maintenance and preparing the motorcycle for operation is also addressed at this stage of the Qride course. We also inform you about LAMS the Learner Approved Motorcycle Scheme.

Component 2

 Our next Q Ride training and assessment session is held at our private training area. This is a practical motorbike lesson where we teach you basic motorbike handling , using a minimum of three gears up to a maximum speed of approx 40 kph to 50 kph.

Throughout your Q-Ride course your motorbike instructor will always talk you through each new manoeuvre and will readily demonstrate each aspect of control to further clarify the exercise.

You will be expected to demonstrate safe use of gears, throttle, brakes, steering and balance. Specific exercises such as emergency stops, controlled braking using both brakes to a halt, figures of eight, u-turns, rear observations and left/right turns must be performed to an acceptable standard to be deemed as competent .

Component 3

The Qride road riding component is where you will apply almost all the skills that were learned earlier in the course along with the implementation of motorcycle control skills, roadcraft skills, defensive riding skills and managing hazards and general road riding situations around Mackay. Many different situations will be presented to you including : traffic lights, roundabouts, stop and give way signs, single lane  suburban and highway roads etc etc

On successful completion of the Qride training course you will be issued with  your Q ride Certificate of Competency which you can present to Queensland transport and be issued with your Re, REA or R motorcycle license.

REMEMBER

You will develop riding skills you cannot learn from family members or friends.

These base skills will lay the foundation for you to become a safer and confident motorcycle rider.
