FREE Advanced Taster Rides - in association with Biker-Down Shropshire (™) Shropshire Advanced Motorcyclists are delighted to announce that we are expanding our working association with Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service and their excellent 'Biker-Down' Workshops (TM) and will continue delivering the 'The Thinking Rider" the last of three free modules. If the first two modules help you in dealing with the unfortunate aftermath of a Motorcycle Road Traffic Accident, the final module is designed to help prevent such an incident occurring in the first place, as SMIDSY (Sorry Mate, I didn't see you) is still by far and away the most common cause attributed to Motorcycle related incidents Biker-Down (TM) is provided entirely free of charge by Shropshire Fire and Rescue service and comprises three modules. Full details and registration forms can be found by selecting this link: https://shropshirefire.gov.uk/biker-down-shropshire But what does becoming a more skilful rider mean to you? Better road positioning? Enhanced observation skills? Or simply better bike control? How would it be if you were able to not only attend this excellent morning workshop, but then have the opportunity to try out the theory for yourself in the very same afternoon, and on your own bike, all FREE of charge to you? Well now you can, as Shropshire Advanced Motorcyclists will be running FREE Advanced Taster rides, starting from the very same venue in the same afternoon, once you have all had a refreshment break.

You will be going out on a mixture of roads with a qualified IAM RoadSmart Observer at a ratio of 1 to 1, or possibly a maximum of 1 Observer to two riders, depending on numbers. Coffee stops will be included, and you will have the opportunity to discuss your ride and at the end will be provided with a written report to take away with you. Whilst there will never be any pressure from us to join, this will however entitle you to a discount with IAM RoadSmart in the event that you should wish to take up the full training. Finally, please understand that the on-road element is not obligatory, as we are offering this as an independent add-on service for Biker-Down (TM) delegates, so if you are wanting to atend the morning workshop only, then just book on the link provided above.
