Following a road safety briefing you will be escorted by your instructor on a road ride for a minimum of two hours. Provided you reach a safe and proficient standard of riding, you will receive a DL196 CBT certificate.
CBT is usually a one-day course, however our commitment to training means the course is tailored to suit your ability and will be extended at reasonable cost if you are unable to reach the required standard on the first day.
So what is cbt?
Cbt stands for Compulsory Basic Training, it is as it says, a compulsory basic training course designed to teach a novice how to ride a bike or scooter safely on the roads. Cbt is a training course and not a test and can be taken on either a scooter or a motorcycle between 50 and 125cc. The cbt course takes a day to pass and once a cbt test has been completed it will allow you to ride a bike or scooter on learner plates for up to 2 years, after this you would need to either: Pass your full bike test or renew your cbt certificate for a further 2 years.
So what’s involved?
Our CBT course starts at 08.50

Element D: Road briefing and safety talk.

Once all the CBT elements have been safely passed a Compulsory Basic Training certificate or form DL196 can be issued by your instructor.
