LEARNER RIDERS Every few weeks we take some time out to help our customers pass their P's test. On a Saturday from 4 to 5pm behind Lennock Motors in Bellona Court we have the test marked out, we walk riders through the test so you know what to practice before the big day. Remember to get off your L's as soon as possible, don't leave it a full year and have to do your L's a second time, and you can take a passenger sooner!
