Excellent! Booked in for 2pm Was thinking of getting some advanced training but this will be just as good. Cheers Spidey x

Well, if you can't get to that there is always the TVSF camping weekend the same weekend.

A free safe for your bike???? Sounds a bit dangerous to me. All that extra weight. And everyone would walk past thinking - he's got a safe on his bike. must be something valueable inside. Where's my crowbar?"

Still, gotta be a damn site less ugly than a top box.....










;o)

no, no. Its a safe to keep you bike in Dirk

Kellyjo... make sure you tell your insurers about this once you complete it as most insurers give a 10% discount for Bikesafe

Does that mean Spidey's going to have to be polite to a traffic cop AND ride like an angel for a full 90 mins?

Good luck with that!

Pffft, you gotta be kidding right? I'll be nice to the nice biker fella, regadless of how he's dressed or what he rides

Ride like an angel? Hmmm, i did a mini bikesafe at the recent London Bikesafeshow at Hendon while test riding an 1198S (be jealous Fizzy one, be very jealous) and the fella did tell me to ride how i normally do. So i did...within reason. I kept it beloww 100 on the m-way sections, just to be polite you know but had a moment on the backroads where the bike sounded so good i changed up a gear before i'd looked at the speed....and when i did look i was doing 104 in a 50

he was cool tho and on the ride back on a virtually empty m-way he overtook me and gave mea gesture to pick the speed up a bit. Ace dude he was

Don't be fooled Zig. My first bikesafe was very good, but the second one last year was just a pain in the bum. I kept getting told off for speeding and I mean a few mph over.

If I end up being followed by our friends in blue, it'll be by chance, not planning........


Cheers Mark.

Really? Hmm. I did ask the dude last time about how close he wants me to speed limits so i'll be sure to ask again. The fella i had said it as it was...no point you riding like an angel just cos i'm behind you otherwise how can i tell you what needs improving if you dont ride like you mornally do.
