Workshops
- 01
The content of your workshops will be prearranged via a phone call during which we’ll discuss your ability and what you want to learn. You can either bring your own motorcycle to work on or use one of ours.
Kate will be there to support you, give you advice, and show you how to do things. But ultimately, you will do the work. That’s the most effective way to learn!
- 02
All workshops will be run by Kate—an experienced female mechanic, teacher, and bike enthusiast. You can read more about Kate’s story here.

The workshops are for motorcyclists of all abilities—whether you've only just passed your CBT and haven't even got a bike yet, or you want to learn how to do something specific.
The content of your workshops will be prearranged via a phone call during which we’ll discuss your ability and what you want to learn. We will tailor your workshop specifically for your level.
- 04
The minimum length workshop is three hours, but we can also do full-day sessions (six hours + a one-hour break).
- 05
By default, workshops will be conducted on a one-to-one basis. Alternatively, if you’d like to book on with a friend, you can do your workshop as a pair.
Unfortunately, due to the size of our workshop, we can’t accommodate more than two participants at this time.

We're based in Tamworth, Staffordshire. We’ll share the exact address during the booking process.
- 07
No, you’re welcome to use one of ours. However, if you’d like to learn how to work on your bike specifically, that’s also possible!
- 08
If you plan to work on your own motorcycle, you will need to bring that with you. Other than that, there’s nothing specific you need to bring. We have all the equipment and will provide refreshments as well.
