Default Wiltshire Bike Safe

Hi all,

Me and a mate are looking to going on the 10 May course (9 till 4'ish). I don't have much detail other than what can be gleaned from their website. I'm emailing them today for further info. Anyone interested in meeting up?

Cheers

Myself and Baldyman did it last year, was pretty good......even though i binned my bike a couple of months later
The bloke who runs it (Colin) is a top bloke, and the old bill will actually turn a blind eye on the day to race cans, mini number plates and dark visors, not that i had all 3 mind

I did this last year and live in South Gloucestershire. Fire Colin an email and explani, he wasn't bothered. IIRC his view was that if it stopped a visitor to their nice roads crashing then it was worthwhile.

Cool, I'm going to drop them an e-mail.

Live in South Gloucester, but work in Wiltshire so on those roads 5 days out of seven, hopefully they'll let me in
