BikeSafe.
 
...is boss!

Did the Merseyside BikeSafe course this weekend...fab group of blokes, fab weather and fab rides!

Learned/remembered lots, got loads of good, honest, non-patronising advice and had a good laugh with everyone on the course and the people running it.

We had some great weather, went over to Mold and also up to the Ponderosa (my 1st time :smt002) on Sunday and it was rammed with bikes, quads and kit cars.....the bacon butties are gorgeous!

Best weekend on my bike yet and all for £80 + juice.

Would recommend to anyone, from newbie to v.experienced

It is well worth it , and remember , anyone in the county of Conwy and Denbighshire can get on it for free too , but IMHO definately worth the £80

Brilliant, well done and glad you enjoyed it. I did mine with Merseyside earlier this year and can`t praise them all enough. I might have passed you on Sunday........ 2 bikesafe cops rode past me each with 2 riders on the A550 heading back towards the Wirral (just by the major roadworks)

Yep, that was our crew....might not have been me, but there were about 10 of us out and about with the bizzies.

Great bunch of fellas, met Mike Addison and Terry Clarry who were featured in the latest Bike magazine as judges for a competition the mag is running at the moment for Britains best biker or summat.

Hmm...I've just been looking online to see if there's anywhere near me who does it - I'm in Fife - and it seems that there aren't any police forces in Scotland who offer it...does anyone know if that's right or not? :confused:

Cheers.

For those in the south, I found Dorking very good. Mixture of police and IAM observers. It was still only £50 this year
