REDDITCH bikers have the chance to gain a qualification at NEW College.

A 34-week part-time course, run at the Blackwood Road campus in Bromsgrove, covers all aspects of motorcycle maintenance including fuel, exhaust, engine and electrical operations.

Students who completed the course this summer have either progressed onto the Level 2 course or been employed in the trade at companies including Symtec Racing and Action Motorcycles in Redditch.

One student has become a technician on the Phase 1 Endurance Racing Team and attended events across Europe while others have simply used their new skills to restore their own motorcycles.
