Fantastic experience: Marnie you legend. I did my RE and R in November. The process was seamless and Marnie helped me navigate through the process.A big thanks to Marnie and the amazing team at Ride Smart, I had a wonderful experience.

Paige A Nickless 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I completed my R course on Sunday 15/12 with Greg, despite it raining on and off, I had a great time. I felt super comfortable and Greg was super easy going and very welcoming. He gave me great pointers to better my riding on the road, and explained everything in depth. Nothing about the day felt rushed, and I did not feel overwhelmed or panicked at any given time. I highly recommend the team here!

Daniel Alejandro Quintero Sánchez 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Doug is the best instructor, the course was amazing, very methodical while was explaining the theorical and practical concepts and also very kind and patient.

Adam Pye 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Just completed my 2 day pre learner course at Mitchelton. I was in a group of 5 with Jack as our trainer. The course content was delivered progressively from the very basics through to more advanced rider skill training, in particular defensive riding techniques. Jack was an exceptional trainer who is very committed to teaching safe riding practices in a safe, calm and skilled manner. Highly recommend Jack and the team at Ridesmart. Thankyou for an enjoyable weekend

Pauly James 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience with Greg and Jack across both my Pre Learners and RE courses. They both showed a genuine passion for what they do, and used lots of stories from their own riding experience that kept me engaged through the otherwise dry module content. I got so much more out of the courses than I expected and both instructors gave so many tips to help improve my riding technique. They were also just cool guys who made it feel like you were just hanging out riding bikes at the same time. Great experience

Steven Dickens 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent course to give new riders experience and more to the point knowledge of not only riding a motorcycle but also road awareness . These policies and training should be used in all aspects of licencing not just for motorbikes ! Mike and Adam were great at taking the time to explain everything and made it a fun and relaxed course to take . Will recommend this to my friend and anyone else thinking of going for their bike licence ! Great job Ride Smart

Alastair Wheeler 9 months ago

Keegan Barboza 9 months ago

Positive experience: Amazing place. I would definitely recommend it to learn the motorcycle, instructor Jesse and other instructors are very friendly. All through be careful with booking the right class or it could be a hassle with making changes later.

Adam Lawrance 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Thank you to RideSmart for helping me complete the 2-day RE (L) course. From Hadassah in Reception who was just awesome in making the enrolment too easy, to Mike (the iron fist in a velvet glove) instructor, who shared his knowledge, showed great patience, maintained his sense of humour and made sure all of his students safely completed the course and were "learner" ready. Well done and I can't wait to come back to complete the RE course.

Jez 289 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: My friend and I went in together for our Pre-Learner course and had such a great time. Both of our instructors from Day 1 (Jack) and Day 2 (Jesse) explained and showcased things in detail. Any time we had difficulty in doing a task they made sure to personally see that we were able to do it by the end of the module. Instructors were very attentive of everyone in the groups and overall very kind, making sure to help us up when dropping the bike. For the content of the course, it helped me wrap my head around manual driving and being confident riding and manoeuvring the bike (from someone with no riding experience). The theories were easy to wrap my brain around and definitely helped on the knowledge exam. Thank you to the team for having us, it was very tiring but such a blast!

Mary Silva 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Just did my pre-learners course. Had Jack and Jesse as my instructors and they were both absolutely phenomenal. Very thorough and informative during the theory segments of the day. Was very patient and explained everything clearly during the riding segments. Both gave off good vibes which helped alot with feeling nervous. Definitely coming back for my REs and recommending to all friends.

Fantastic experience: I had Mike for my Pre-Learners course, who was an absolute legend. He was extremely knowledgeable, being able to answer every question I had, and got me confident on a bike when I hadn't ridden one ever in my life. The rest of the staff were also super nice supplying cold water and were overall all super helpful. Can't really fault them on anything at all.

Rejeesh Raghavan 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I had an international motorcycle license, which I converted to an RE and then an R license, so I've had several interactions with the team here. Every experience has been incredibly positive. The instructors—Doug, Greg, and Jesse—are all exceptionally patient, knowledgeable, and dedicated to teaching safe riding practices. They are passionate advocates for road safety, not only for motorcyclists but for all road users. What stands out most is their deep love for motorcycles; each one could talk endlessly about bikes, from technical details to riding culture. With them, you’re learning from seasoned professionals who are genuinely enthusiastic about their craft. An impressive aspect of their teaching is how they draw from their own real-life experiences to demonstrate riding techniques, making the lessons even more practical and relatable. Additionally, Marnie and Hadassah at the reception are the heart of this team, ensuring everything runs smoothly. Both are always upbeat, friendly, and go above and beyond to accommodate requests and assist with scheduling or rescheduling. They truly make the whole experience seamless and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Shout out to Marnie for squeezing me in my exam day to commence next morning when booked just minutes ago today prior of writing this in favor when initially needed to wait next week as scheduled. Jack and Adam have been my instructor for very short moment have been absolutely amazing for provide me confidence and feedback within a very short timeframe before my exam day deadline. When booking your sessions, request for Jack as Trainer 9 and/or Adam as Trainer 6, amazing blokes to vibe with. Marnie has been amazing throughout and to support local businesses like this is definitely well deserved!

Jesse Hoek 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: 100% recommend! Jack was very engaging and supportive through the entire lesson. The way the days are structured is very good, with a little bit of verbal teaching and then straight on with a little practical training after. I would recommend bringing your own gloves and or helmet tho as sharing with others is obviously not going to be the nicest on the nose. Great 2 days!!!

Thanks Jesse, we hope you get a nice helmet with your vouchers!

Fantastic experience: Thank you Smart Ride at Mitchie. Just successfully completed my RE course and now am licensed to ride . The team at Ride Smart are great from Marnie looking after the bookings to the lads instructing the learners. I was lucky enough to have Greg, Jesse and Jack help me on my motorcycle journey. With Jack getting me over the line at the end. Great support, knowledge and caring from all these guys. Cheers all, see ya on the road.

Fantastic experience: Great course and Pete was a fantastic instructor! Went into it with the intention of just getting a scooter as I was worried about driving a manual. After my first day I was much more confident and decided to get a proper bike now.

Fantastic experience: Thanks Jess for your instruction in the pre Learner's on the weekend. Couldn't believe all that you had taught us over the 2 days. You were very professional at the same time as being easy going and relaxed in your delivery. Will be back for the RE course as soon as I can. Highly recommend!

RideSmart QRide Brisbane

Thanks Tanya, so glad you enjoyed the course!

Jazmyne Haas 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: You guys are absolutely fantastic!! I did the 2 day PrepL course and learnt so much :)) Special shout out to Mike and Greg, y'all made it fun yet extremely educational at the same time. I love that you didn't hold back on "what happens if" situations. I feel that knowing the worst is the best way to make sure you know the risks when our riding. I passed my test 30/30 as soon as I got home! Went on my first road ride yesterday and did fairly well (even though I stalled it like 6 times bahaha) Thanks so much! I will be coming back for my RE Course for sure <3

RideSmart QRide Brisbane

Thank you Jazmyne :) We hope you're enjoying your bike!

Kara de Groot 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I took the Pre-L course and it was really fun and informative! It gave me the skills and confidence to feel safe on the road. Marnie in the front office is very friendly and accomodating, and Jesse is the best trainer you could ask for - super supportive and extremely knowledgeable, and willing to put in the time to make sure you understand and can complete the task. Will definitely be booking with them for my R’E’s!

Fantastic experience: If you don't know how to ride a motorcycle, this is the place to help you learn to ride. Ridesmart was recommended by friends, and I would definitely recommend Ridesmart to my friends or anyone who wants to learn to ride.. Jack, our trainer, was the man. He built a great atmosphere and place to learn. Thanks, Jack and Ridesmart, I can ride with confidence.

Cole Baker 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Done the Pre-Learners with Jack… Dude puts the fun in fundamentals, making the scripted modules as interesting as possible and adjusting his assistance with the level of the trainees to help push them positively forward. Didn’t feel like I was being spoken down to or I was out of my depths. Was a great 2 day course which flew by and (especially with trainers like Jack) could not recommend this more.

RideSmart QRide Brisbane

Thanks for the kind words Cole, we are so glad you enjoyed the course with Jack!

J K 1 year ago

Richard Thomas 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent time taking part in the Pre-Learners Course. The instructor was knowledgeable, patient and friendly which made learning a new skill (Especially one as involved as motorbike riding) feel much less imposing! Thanks also to the rest of the coordinating staff who assisted in the process. I look forward to coming back in 3 months to get my next Certification. R

RideSmart QRide Brisbane

Thank you Richard, well done on completing the 2 Day Learner Course. We appreciate your awesome feedback and look forward to seeing you in a few months. RideSafe & Ridesmart Marnie & The RideSmart Team
