You will need a full licence and your own motorcycle to take part in this course.

You will then learn how to improve slow riding confidence (figure of eight, slalom etc) with the chance to practice in a no-pressure environment. Then, we learn the principles and practice of counter steering before a break for lunch.

The first part of the afternoon session is spent polishing up on your precision riding and balance before an assessed road ride with one of Phoenix Motorcycle Training’s PROskills coaches with both verbal and video feedback afterwards and a CPD certificate of attendance. It’s a full day of training and at just £129 for BikeSocial members is incredible value for money.
