I'm looking to take my CBT as soon as possible and am currently based in Norwich.

Does anyone know any respectable school in the area, or any schools i should try to aviod?

Thanks in advance.

Hi c-m,

Don't get too many Norwich folk posting on here (there are some though): Welcome! I live on Dereham Road.

I did all my training from CBT to DAS with Apex (01603 508088 - they're on the cattlemarket off Hall Road). Andy and Aaron are nice guys and good trainers, I think.

got all excited when he told me a guy dropped out so I booked my CBT for a week on Saturday. £80 all in, going to do it on a 125.

Cool! See if they remember me when you do it. I only passed my DAS a month ago.

Have a good one!

£80 all in? Christ!

Down south it cost me £95 to do my CBT on a 50cc, 4 years ago!

I did both my CBT and, more recently, my A2 training with a place called 'Top Notch Training'.

https://www.topnotchtraining.co.uk/

Passed both first time. Really helpful and friendly instructors whom know what they're talking about.

took my CBT this morning with Andy at Apex, and a new instructor. they were both friendly and gave good advice and instruction. I passed my CBT on a 125 and would consider doing a Direct Access with them once I have more bike experience. I would recommend them to people in the area.

All i need now is a nice bike and fast chick.

Hi i'm also from Norwich, well I wasn't actually born here hence why I've only got one head and talk normally joke

I live just out side Norwich in the ever expanding Thorpe Marriott.
I took mine with CJ Ball the Honda/Suzuki dealer, they were really good but pretty expensive £119 for CBT on a XR125.

You can't fail a CBT really, it's not a test just training and you have to be lethal on a bike to not get certified as a safe rider on the road. lol

Good on ya though

How much are you looking to pay for a bike? If you look in the right places you can pick up a real bargin. As a first bike you don't need anything overly fast or impressive. I know of people on here getting chinese import 125's brand new for £600.

Not the best build quality but take care of it and they do OK. 2nd ones are dirt cheap!

Congrats on the CBT!!!

Good to see some more locals getting on the forum!

For stuff like the chinese bikes the best place I'd say is Ebay.

If not mine came from J&S in New Malden, just outside London, but that's a bit far for you!
