They certainly do weekend courses in Hereford... and they are not £100! That sounds a rip off.  :o

I agree with everyone else, get to another training center and get it done there!  Also, it might be worth reporting the bloke to the DVLA, as his conduct from what you said was pretty poor, and definately not beneficial to any sort of prospective learner!

TB - the CBT cert lasts 2 years now ;)

Deffo... he may go on to intimidate peps who would enjoy a lifetime of motoring on 2 wheels. There is no excuse for such piggery in our era of consumer satisfaction  :D

had my fun, thats it.
You got a lid? We could always get the ZX10 out and scare you witless (alas, you can't ride it - ffs, you're not strong enough to keep it upright ;D)

If you had something lighter / smaller CC i can prove i can control the bike!  ;)
If you've never been in/on something really quick, forget ability to control bike, concentrate on ability to control backside ;D

Oh how true....remember when my DR650 broke down,thumbing up the A1 and a very nice on a ZX picked me up,never been so damn scared in my life.
 ;D

There is no need to swear in that way at any time, any place or to anyone - especially from a teacher...

I could not accept someone taking £100 off me and then having to put up with abuse. I think a quiet word the first time it occurred wouldn't have gone amiss. If he has a problem with it - get a refund and walk away.

Very frustrating  >:(

It is very unfortunate that this man spoiled your attempt somewhat. I would probably give it another shot - just to prove to yourself!

CBT is £100.00, my lad has just done it.
I strongly think you should report him, he may be self-employed but all CBT training company's are overseen, apparently quite strictly, just can’t remember by whom, and complaint are take seriously.
Whether you should have passed is a separate argument, sounds like his attitude was quite appalling.
As I said my lad has just done his and the instructors were really approachable and knowledgeable as well as quite chatty, and would be appalled by the behaviour you have described.
If you want me to find out who to and where to complain I could pop up and see them tomorrow.  

 :)
