If you want to ride a motorcycle around Nottingham, the law requires you to complete your CBT before you head out on L-plates. It's the first step to getting on the road, whether you're commuting into the city centre or just want the freedom of two wheels at weekends.
CBT stands for Compulsory Basic Training. Despite what people often search for, it isn't something you pass or fail. It's a full day of guided instruction with a DVSA-approved instructor, covering everything from bike control in a controlled area to riding safely on the road. Complete the course and you'll get a CBT certificate valid for two years, giving you time to build confidence before deciding whether to progress further.
