With a mixture of busy roads, quiet residential streets and dual carriageways, Motorbike lessons in Watford provide you with a well-rounded experience of riding on two wheels, whether it's a motorcycle, scooter or moped that you plan to ride once passing.
Being situated on the outskirts of London, Watford is only a 60 minute ride away from The Chiltern Hills or if you want to explore further on your bike, once you have passed your CBT, the North Wessex Downs has some beautiful scenic routes to explore which will take about 1.5 hours to ride to.
Just remember you can’t ride on motorways with a CBT licence, so make sure you set your Maps to avoid Highways so you don’t get caught out! Find out about other licence restrictions in our guide to licences.
