Riding around Welwyn and Hatfield
Welwyn Garden City is only a few miles up the road, and our instructors know the route well, including the roundabouts on Comet Way (A1001) and Stanborough Road (A6129) that many local riders use every day once they have their L plates.
Thinking about the full licence later? Full licence dates at Hatfield are limited, as it’s mainly a CBT site, so give us a call on 020 8012 7929 to check. When you’re ready for your tests, we use the DVSA centre at Enfield (Innova Park, Module 1 and Module 2), about 15 miles from Hatfield.
What you can ride after your CBT
Once you’ve completed your CBT, you can ride a moped if you’re 16 or over, or a motorcycle up to 125cc (up to 11kW) if you’re 17 or over, on L plates. Your CBT certificate lasts 2 years, so you’ll need to pass your full test within that time or take CBT again.
CBT isn’t a test you pass or fail. Most riders complete it in one day, and if you need more time we’ll explain what to work on and arrange extra training.
