IAM roadsmart course - I recommend it.
A few of my customers are IAM advanced riders. And I was encouraged to try it.
I've been riding for 25 years. On and offroad. All over the world. Track days, touring, the lot. I thought I was pretty good and knew it all.
So I paid my £175 to the IAM and I was placed with my local advanced rider group.
I've only been out twice. Being observed at close distance for fun rides lasting 4-5 hours. Plenty of coffee & cake stops where you're given hints, advice and valuable road craft. Your day is graded and detailed advice emailed to you.
In just two sessons I'm a faster, safer and far more confident rider. I learnt so much and I've still got plenty of sessions to go before my examination. I've picked up some terrible habbits over the years.. And I'm nowhere near as observant as I'd thought. But it's also nice to hear the positive things they observe too.
If there are any riders struggling with confidence, experience or feeling vulnerable on a bike, then I 100% recommend taking an advanced rider course.
There is nothing like honest feedback to improve one's riding.
