Before you can legally ride a motorcycle or moped on the highway you must* take a CBT course and in order to be eligible to do that you must first obtain a British Provisional Licence with category P for moped riders or A for motorcycles. Order an application form or apply on-line

(Older licences may have different category letters, if you are unsure contact us for clarification).

The CBT courses are designed to be an introduction to motorcycles. The course covers everything you need to know to begin riding safely on the roads of today including information on types of clothing and helmets, legal requirements, road procedure, weather conditions, bike handling etc., using the very latest teaching methods we aim to give you a good grounding in motorcycling,  further training is advised and essential if you intend to go on to gain a full bike licence. The course is normally a full days training, however it could take longer in certain circumstances. On satisfactory completion a CBT the certificate DL196 will be issued and is valid for two years from issue date.

The bikes used for CBT courses are 50cc Yamaha Jog R and Peugeot moped scooters (twist & go) and for gears Yamaha YBR, Honda CG125, Suzuki GN125 or you can use your own vehicle (providing it is roadworthy and insured).

All on road training is conducted with the latest state of the art NEV Radio Communications System allowing for clear instructions and directions.
