We passed our tests In May of this year and so still have a lot to learn about riding but hoping to get out on our bikes while the weather is nice.

We both ride Yamaha xv bobbers so it's loud and slow for us lol.

Hope to see some of you soon x

Best thing any biker can do is take an advanced rider course. I thought for years, pah. Anyway we both did it a few years back and it was amazing. Road position and safety that you wouldn't even think about. I liked it that much I trained to be an observer and pass on all the knowledge I learned. There's something to be said about riding to police standards. Advise everyone to do this. It could save a lot of heartache in the long run and worth every penny

Seen too many riders try too hard and end up in a ditch. Just enjoy it.

That's sound advice. I did the IAM course and it really opened my eyes.

Best advice on this thread so far. Did the same thing, became an instructor and without doubt the best thing you can spend your biking money on.

Your observation skills will improve 10 fold, your confidence will too.

Take it easy out there and be safe.
