Riding around Walthamstow and the North Circular
Your CBT finishes with at least 2 hours of riding on real roads, with traffic lights, roundabouts, junctions and crossings. Our Chingford site is just off Chingford Road (A112), close to the North Circular (A406), so our instructors know the busy London traffic you’ll be riding in around Walthamstow every day.
For the full licence, the DVSA motorcycle test centre we use for Chingford riders is Enfield (Innova Park, Solar Way), about 6 miles away, which runs both Module 1 and Module 2 tests. We also use Basildon, Erith and Gillingham. We book your tests and help you prepare for the roads around the test centre.
