New Riders
This course can be completed one on one or as a group up to 5.
The riding test gets you to a point where you can begin to learn the combination of skills required to stay alive on the road. Almost two thirds of motorcycle crashes involve only the motorcycle meaning a lot of the responsibility for staying alive is ours. To read more click here
The time immediately after you get your licence is the time to cement and build on skills to prevent crashes.
This course is designed so each participant is assessed in their skill level development and then exercises will be developed to improve and build on those skills and abilities. Setting up of your motorcycle to fit you, and some revision of what’s happening to the motorcycle while you ride is also covered initially.
Low speed riding skills receive further development as this is where much of what is required can be best practiced. An on road component is also used to provide training on environmental risks such as ‘reading’ the road, positioning for safety, counter steering and risk avoidance, braking and a general understanding of the key factors in both the motorcycle and rider to develop safe riding techniques.
Many seem to want to complete this course in a one-on-one session. This can be accommodated. Scooter riders are also welcome for these sessions.
