Compulsory Basic Training (CBT): your first day on two wheels
The CBT is a short, practical introduction to basic training that sets you up for safe riding. This one-day programme combines off-road practice and an accompanied on-road ride so you prove essential competence. The emphasis is on control, observation and calm decision-making.
What the course covers on and off the road
You begin in a secure area practising machine checks, clutch control, slow-speed balance and braking. Tutors coach lifesavers, shoulder checks and safe junction approaches so your riding is predictable and controlled.
One-day format and what to bring
The morning focuses on checks, controls and low-speed exercises. After a road briefing you take an accompanied on-road ride to show core competencies.
- Bring: photocard licence, sturdy footwear and suitable clothing.
- Optional: your own protective kit for comfort and visibility.
125cc eligibility and next steps
On successful completion you may ride a 125cc bike on L plates, subject to legal limits. Many learners then book extra sessions or plan for theory and practical tests. You will leave with a short plan to develop confidence on two wheels.
Direct Access to a full motorcycle licence
If you want to move straight to a full entitlement, Direct Access gives a fast, regulated route for eligible riders. This option suits those who meet the age limits and want focused practical work before the official assessments.
Choosing the right DAS route for your age and experience
Pick a pathway that fits your background. UK riders choose between stepping up from A1 or A2 or going directly for the full A when eligible. Instructors will explain how age and prior categories affect your options.
From module practice to test day: building road-ready skills
Structured module practice reinforces slow-speed control, emergency braking and swerves. Each session links yard drills to on-road scenarios so you know what will happen on test day.
- Plan: theory, paired module practice and mock practicals.
- Focus: mirrors, positioning, speed control and hazard anticipation.
- Preparation: paperwork, kit and a step-by-step ride plan before the test.
Progression planning: from A1/A2 to full A licence
Many riders follow a staged route from A1 to A2 then to A. Direct access can shorten that path for older, experienced applicants.
Good motorcycle training ties practice yard work to real traffic so you arrive at the practical test calm and confident.
Back to biking refresher lessons to rebuild confidence
If you’ve been off the road for a while, a short refresher can help you feel steady and sure on two wheels again.
Friendly, focused sessions let you reconnect at your own pace. Instructors tailor each hour to your prior experience and focus on the exact riding skills you want to refresh.
We begin on quiet streets to restore feel, balance and slow-speed control. As you gain confidence, we add modern road scenarios so your judgement of gaps and speed feels natural.
What a refresher includes
- Practical drills to rebuild clutch, braking and low-speed manoeuvres so U-turns and parking feel smooth.
- Updated guidance on bike technology, rider aids and protective kit to improve comfort and safety.
- Supportive coaching that breaks down tricky situations into simple, repeatable habits.
- Personalised feedback and a short plan to keep improving between sessions, matched to your goals — touring, commuting or weekend rides.
