Allow at least one day for your CBT course. If you are an absolute beginner with no road experience, it may be more beneficial and cost-effective to take an ITM course.
If you are renewing your CBT and can satisfactorily demonstrate all aspects of the CBT syllabus, your course could be just a few hours. Remember, you are legally required to ride on the road for a minimum of 2 hours. Please bring your expired CBT certificate with you if possible.
Our CBT course is currently priced £185 and £165 for WLMT returnees. You can book online, or call our office if you are retaking your course or are a WLMT returnee.
CBT includes bike hire, helmet and jacket, plus an instructor and third-party insurance to ride on the road.
Provided you successfully complete the on-site practical elements, you will have a minimum of two hours on the road at the end of your course. Once you have satisfactorily completed all elements of the CBT course, you will be issued with a CBT certificate (DL196), which will allow you to ride unaccompanied on the road. You cannot carry passengers or go on motorways, you must display L plates on the front and back of your bike, and you can ride anything up to a 125cc auto or geared bike if you are 17 years old or over.
Bring your licence, wear jeans as minimum with no rips or tears and strong leather boots that fully cover your ankles for protection – no tracksuit bottoms, shoes, sports footwear, trainers or canvas footwear, steel toe-caps or Chelsea boots etc are allowed. For hygiene reasons, we are unable to loan gloves so please BRING YOUR OWN ROAD MOTORCYCLE GLOVES ONLY for protection - builders work gloves, cycling gloves, off-road motorcycle gloves, fingerless gloves, gardening glove, ski gloves, winter gloves etc are NOT permitted. If you ware borrowing a WLMT helmet, you must also bring a full face balaclava to wear underneath.
