Came home yesterday absolutely knackered after a day out with this guy : https://www.get2grips.co.uk/about-us.html
Knackered, partly because it was another hot day but mainly because we (myself , another IAM group member and Roddie as instructor) spent nearly all of it riding with very high levels of concentration on some very demanding roads in and around the Perthshire highlands.
Riding at NSL speeds with someone a foot or two away from your bike telling you on BT to "Hold that line ... Watch that limit point move ... Slow ... Quick ... Power on!" may be old hat for the Polis trained riders among us but it was a revelation to me. It was knackering but also hugely enjoyable and confidence inspiring. There was some theory but the emphasis was on practical demos as above. Just listening to Roddie's commentaries as he rode was a reminder of how much time, effort and expertise goes into training Police riders and gives us all something to aspire to.
Highly recommended and no connection to yer man other than as a happy (but tired) client.
