Does anyone know a reliable riding school somewhere in Manchester - preferably around Sale or Urmston.

I'm not sure about Sale or Urmston, but if you go to the centre of Manchester Moto-technique near Victoria Station are pretty good. A guy at work has just done his CBT there and I passed my test with them donkeys years ago.

MOTO-TECHNIQUE
Arches 1&2, Millgate
Dantzic Street
Manchester
M4 4BS
Tel: 0161 833 4136
Fax: 0161 831 9391

Hope this helps

Sale Yamaha might be able to recommend someone.

I'm sure there used to be one in Urmston called Sherwin something or other. Used to see folk with it written on yellow vests. Don't know if they still exist. Will do some asking

Edit:

Found them in the Mellow Sages:

Sounds like there's quite an SV contingent growing in the South & West Manchester area

I'm a weekend visitor to this area, as my g/f lives in Urmston
