Bike Safe anyone?

Nothing more to say really, if it's been organised it'll be here.

Hey all!

Just wondering if anyone would be interested in doing the bike safe course anytime soon?

Ive done it mate, was the best few days of biking ive ever done, i did mine deep in northwales with the police was great, and i plan to do it again in a few years, one thing i would say though is the NC30 isnt a good bike to do it on!

Really? Bigger bike you reckon?

When were you thinking of doing this mate? I am a bit skint at the minute, and want to service bike (shims, plugs, balancing left) before any big-ish rideouts, but am definitely up for doing something like this. Been riding for about 8 years now so about time I did I think!

no more the fact your SPENDING huge ammounts of time at varying speeds and scenarios, not to mention the heat the engine gets up too :s

by the end of the day your back WILL be in agony.

AH! Replies :D hehe

Yea, i figured as much... my NC doesn't like towns/traffic much :/ Unfortunately i don't have another bike to do it on, so you reckon it'd still be worth it??
I'll just have to dope myself up on a couple asprin and ibuprofen :P

And cheers for that link Hardnut! It was gonna be £50 round my way, and it'll only cost me a tenner to get up to Bedford :D

So let me know if u keen Viper! Was thinking maybe the 13th?

Cheers all
