It's worth pointing out though that emphasis was placed severely on adhering to speed limits for the day, something which, if I'm honest, I tend not to do (as most of my riding is in NSL areas, and I deem it less of a risk to exceed the limit).
Sounds like they take a slightly different approach to Hampshire Police - when I did a Bikesafe with them 5 years ago, I was told:-

'Today we will be doing up to 30 in a 30, 40 in a 40, 50ish in a 50, and NSLs - travel whatever speed you feel safe at, however if you are going too quick for me then I will not try and keep up with you' - suffice to say, I did not manage to lose him in the NSLs, despite have a good go
