Just wanted to tell you all about BIKESAFE.
I attended this course the weekend(all day sat and sun), this one was run by West Midlands Police.
Saturday:
9 - 11 classroom session talking about various hazards and assessment
11 - 1 Out on the road with a Police motorcyle following assessing your town riding
Lunch
2 - 4 Off road course, to improve slow handling ( including help from Craig Jones )
4 - 5 Craig put on a show of some of the mad things he gets upto.
Sunday:
9 - 12 classroom session talking about positioning, speed etc
Lunch
1 - 4 Ride out with Police motorcycle following, country roads etc.
Excellent 2 days, the blokes at Tally Ho! in Brum are a great bunch.
Worth doing if you get the chance.
