Where do Bathgate riders do their motorcycle training?
Bathgate, Armadale, Whitburn and Blackburn all sit close to the M8, which makes Straiton a straightforward motorway and bypass run.
If you are coming for a full licence, your CBT and theory certificates must both be valid before you start. If your CBT is close to expiring, a CBT renewal with us is a good chance to get advice on Direct Access at the same time.
How do I get to the training yard from Bathgate?
From Bathgate, take the M8 east, then the A720 bypass to Straiton. It is about 22 miles and takes about 30 minutes by car in normal traffic outside rush hour. The yard is Yard 15 in the Clippens industrial estate, opposite Straiton retail park, and there is parking on site.
Address: Edinburgh Motorcycle Training, 15 Clippens Yard, Straiton, EH20 9NS. Open in Google Maps.
