The day is split into five key parts. Four take place off road, and the final part is a road ride where your instructor checks that you can ride safely in real traffic conditions.
The five elements of CBT are:
A: Introduction and eyesight check
B: Practical on-site training
C: Practical on-site riding
D: Practical on-road training
E: Practical on-road riding
You will move on to the next section when your instructor is satisfied that you have understood the required theory and demonstrated each skill safely.
If your instructor feels you are not yet meeting the required standard, you will need to book additional training on another day.
