These run as two-hour sessions during the week.

CBTA restricted and full licence bookings are now filling up quickly due to demand in November and December.
Bookings operate on weekdays, usually starting at 9am (depending upon availability)🏍

Competency-based training and assessment (CBTA) provides another option when choosing how to get your motorcycle licence.

Instead of taking a practical test at the restricted and full stages of your licence, you can choose to have your riding skills assessed by an approved CBTA assessor (which Ian, your motorcycle assessor is).

More CBTA information:

If you have any questions or wish to book in, please message or phone us (06) 759 6959 and we will be able to assist.

*CBTA going ahead is subject to weather conditions on the day.
