About Us

Here at NQ Ride, we aren’t just another Q-Ride Provider. We strive for excellence in all areas of our training and instruction, offering a comprehensive suite of training options to help you achieve your riding goals in a comfortable and supportive environment.

Our mission is to consistently deliver the highest standards of motorcycle training based on years of industry involvement and our part in the development of many training programs in all disciplines of motorcycle training both on and off-road.

The cookie cutter approach to motorcycle training is not for everyone and as such we offer a selection of pre and post licence options: 

Learn to Ride Course - come and spend 1.5 hours with us and we can get you up and moving so you can decide if riding is for you before committing to the licensing process. Good fun, no pressure, and at your own pace. Give it a go !! 

Private Training - one on one to target key areas of your riding technique. Having trouble with braking ? Not happy with your cornering skills - running wide, poor gear and speed selection or maybe even bike set up issues - we can help fine tune it all. 

Of course we also specialise in offering all three of the Q Ride Courses:

Pre Learner: no license or haven’t had much experience on a bike before, don’t worry - this course caters for all. This is the starting point for everyone. A comprehensive Two Day competency based course delivered in 34 Modules over two 6 hour days. No matter how little or how much experience you have, this course will help you gain fundamental skill sets, valuable knowledge and techniques for riding safely and help you to enjoy the experience and fun of being on a bike !!
After the course is finished and you have been deemed as competent, you must then complete the QLD Motorcycle Knowledge test via the TMR website - you are now a Learner licensed rider and you may begin your 3 months (minimum) of practice on the road while accompanied by an RE or R licensed rider. You have now begun your first steps towards your motorcycling freedom and fun - remember, you're are still learning, spend time, take it easy and build the confidence up in readiness for the next step! Please check your eligibility before booking. 

RE course: After you have spent the required three months practice, you will then be eligible to complete the One Day RE course. This is a 7.5 hour course completed over one day (can be done over two half days) - this course is also a competency based training course and is the next step to getting off your L’s !! It is comprised of a mixture of range based activities and skills in the morning, some classroom based theory and then a 2 hour road ride in the afternoon during which we discuss various Roadcraft techniques and analyse the major crash types and how we can strategically avoid them. 
Before you attend this course you must have completed the Motorcycle Hazard Perception Test online via TMR and have also gained some valuable ride time and on road experience. Being ‘eligible’ for this course may not mean you are ‘ready’ - so if you’re unsure you can always call up for a chat about where your level of riding is - we pride ourselves on making sure our clients are ready for the level of training they have booked in for. We want you to have a good training experience, not tough one and a bad day !! Now you’re off your L’s you can experience the freedom that comes with being an Open RE licenced rider. Let’s go !!

R Course: This is the third and final step in the licensing process. This course is delivered over a short 3.5 hour (half) day. It is also competency based and assumes knowledge and skills from the Pre Learner and RE course - these skills should be fully developed by this stage of your riding and the course takes on more of a mentoring and development flavour rather than a ‘teaching’ one - there is a quick Road Ride simulation on the Training area and then we hit the road for 2 hours. During the ride we stop for several discussions and some feedback on your riding techniques. 
On completion of this course you are issued with your competency declaration and you can then go online and upgrade your licence to an Open Unrestricted!! The world is your oyster now, you may ride any capacity, size and style of bike you wish. Congratulations! Please check your eligibility before booking.
