A checkride for a new rating/certificate would reset the clock for a Flight Review, not the training portion itself (61.56). A CFI would still need to give a Flight Review. Besides, if the OP wishes to fly solo or with pax which I assume he will, he will definitely need to have a Flight Review done to be able to act as PIC.
