Default CBT centres

Can anyone recommend a decent training centre in the Halifax/Brighouse-ish area? I need to book one soon but just wondering what people have to say about the ones around. I can ride a wee bit atm and YC will be teaching me for the most part anyway but I'd just like to know what you folks think (I realise it may have been a long time since some of you did CBTs but if you could try to remember I'd be much obliged )

After the abysmal experience I had at Ripponden Motorcycles last year I need to know I'm going to be getting my money's worth!

Cheers

I didn't pass the one I took last year (long story) so I've never been on the road But yes CBTs are valid for a couple of years.

The CBT centres round here tell you to come back free of charge the following week if they feel your not ready for the road.
After all, its their failing in teaching, not you failing to pass.

I only wish the bloke I had had said the same I walked out in the afternoon, couldn't be doing with him no more I couldn't afford a re-test so my riding career-to-be has been put back a year! N'mind though, you live and learn

As I have said a million times over......you'll have no problems with Roadrunner in Hudds. I wouldn't have gone for a job with them if they weren't good at what they do, and fun, and most of all, they give girlies confidence, rather than them horrid a*holes at Ripponden
