Where do Livingston riders do their motorcycle training?
From Livingston, Mid Calder or East Calder you join the M8 or A71 east, pick up the bypass at Hermiston Gait and leave at the Straiton junction.
The reason to make the trip is group size. With 2 students to an instructor on CBT and DAS, you spend the day riding rather than waiting your turn.
How do I get to the training yard from Livingston?
From Livingston, take the M8 east to Hermiston Gait, then the A720 bypass round to Straiton. It is about 20 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.
