MKAM: Slow Riding Session – what next?
Thank you to all who made it to our Slow Riding session today.
The feedback has been brilliant – it seems everyone got something positive out of the session and many of you have requested more dates.
I wanted to invite you along to an IAM RoadSmart Advanced Rider taster session with our group. It’s a relaxed, no-pressure opportunity to experience what the Advanced Rider course is all about and see how it could benefit your riding.
The session usually includes a short ride out with one of our experienced Observers, followed by a chat over a coffee about your riding, the course, and what you’d get from it.
The Advanced Rider course isn’t about turning you into a track rider or criticising your riding style — it’s about helping you become smoother, safer, more confident and more in control on the road. Riders often find they:
· Improve their cornering and machine control
· Feel more confident in traffic and on longer rides
· Develop better observation and planning skills
· Enjoy riding even more
· Potentially reduce insurance costs through fewer claims
Most importantly, it’s enjoyable and tailored to your experience level. Whether you’ve been riding for 6 months or 20 years, there’s always something useful to take away.
If you live in Milton Keynes or North Bucks and if you’d like to come along and give it a try, just let me know and we can arrange a date that suits you.
Hope to see you soon.
