The Team
Chris (Billy) - Co ATB owner & Chief Instructor
Ey up everyone. I'm Chris and I'm the instructor at Billy's Bike Training. I have been an instructor since 2017 and before that I had a variety of job roles, including fork lift driving, HR, and private airline operations.
I started at a small school in the Mansfield area as a "down-trained" weekend CBT instructor. I quickly discovered I absolutely loved the job, and moved on to a larger much busier Doncaster based ATB (Authorised Training Body) in 2018, after which I decided to "go solo" and form my own family owned motorcycle training organisation.
Outside of work I enjoy being hands on around the house, occasionally getting the spanners to the bikes, and being a full time dad too!

Lou (Mrs Billy) - Co ATB owner & Head of Admin
Hi everyone. I'm Lou. I will probably be the one you speak to regarding any queries you have and making your bookings. I do have a lovely yorkshire accent so feel free to ask if I say anything you don't understand.
Outside of work I'm Chris's other half, mum to 5 and step mum to 2. As this is a family run business I'll be doing my bit but I also work part time as an admin assistant although currently on maternity leave. I enjoy things that make me laugh, a good gin and crafting. I know.......where do I find the time! Look forward to speaking with you all soon.
