Thumbs up Met Police - BikeSafe

Hello. Just booked on a BikeSafe course with the Met Police. Full price is £45pp however if you try the voucher code MET2475 you should get £7.50 off per person. Everyone who attends gets entered into a competition to win a bike as well as runner up prizes of lids and protective gear!

They run quite often from near Croydon and the London Gateway Services. Plus there are some others running from Triumph and Harley.

I'm doing the 29th October.


P.S. posted here rather than in local groups due to it covering too many.

Well worth yer money Stenno IMO. £45's a little bit steep but you get to ride with some of the best road riders in the world so you can't say fairer than that.

Done a Biksafe course up in Fife at a total cost of £22 and that was my fuel for the day they do it for free up there and was a fantastic day and lots to learn from it .


Best of luck on the day

Free is great, £150 is extortionate. Says a lot about their thoughts on bikers!
I've a new found respect for TFL!
