The Compulsory Basic Training (CBT)

is the first step to getting you on the road and requires no previous experience.
At Saltire we will provide you with a bike (Suzuki GSX-S125 or automatic scooter) and any clothing you need to borrow, except boots.

Once you have completed your CBT, you will qualify for a discount in our clothing department, so you can start building up your own bike kit.

Prices are as follows:

CBT Monday-Friday – £160

CBT Weekends – £175

The CBT was was introduced in 1990 by the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) with the aim of increasing skills for learner motorcyclists and improving road safety.
It is made up of five different elements, some in the classroom, some in the training yard and lastly out on the road.

Our Instructors will only take you out onto the road once they feel that you are confident handling a motorcycle, and are safe to do so. Traditionally, the CBT course is one full day, but can continue for another half day or so, depending on how individual students get on (or if the weather causes problems!)

Learners will be expected to use the roads safely and legally. So we highly recommend that provisional licence holders read The Highway Code before undertaking a CBT. But remember, The Highway Code is for life, not just for learners!

Buy The Official Highway Code here.

If you have any questions, please email ridertraining@saltiremotorcycles.com or call on 0131 478 6661 option 4.

20apr11:00 am2:00 pmMachine Gun Preacher - Sam Childers - Charity Talk

Event Details

Sam Childers’ life was the subject of Hollywood movie The Machine Gun Preacher (Starring – Gerard Butler playing the role of Sam Childers).

It all started with a Scum of the earth type life – one of drugs, violence and Motorcycles – which involved, at one point, being an armed guard for drug dealers. After almost being killed in a wild brawl Childers decided to turn his life around – to embrace a life of faith in God as he fought to free enslaved children in South Sudan and Northern Uganda – that all started back in 1998.

Since then, Childers has built one of the largest orphanages in Southern Sudan, which has fed and housed more than 1,000 children. With the orphanage finished, Childers began to lead armed missions to rescue children from the Lord’s Resistance Army – which led to villagers calling him ‘The Machine Gun Preacher’.

Fast-forward till today: Childers team make around 12,000 meals every day (for feeding programs in East Africa) and house 380 orphan children (most of which are victims of some atrocity)24/7. He’s also drilled dozens of wells – built many schools and has major projects in South Sudan, Uganda and Ethiopia.

The event is free, although we will take up a free will offering for the work he does in South Sudan and Northern Uganda after he has spoken. We’d like to think we could help him save some more children.

Hot and Cold refreshments will be available, alongwith a Hot fork buffet, with all donations going to help Sam’s work.
