Good to hear you enjoyed the FBoS - I have used the skills taught, but only once so far. We were 1st bikes on scene of a head-on collision between 2 cars - things just 'slotted' into place.

If you haven't done any further training I would certainly recommend the BikeSafe course as a first step - even though it is now a 1-day course. Both the RoSPA & IAM 'courses' are based on 'Roadcraft', the police riding system, although different emphasis is placed on different areas.

The 'local' IAM group (NWAM) operate on a one-to-one basis with their Associates (see nwam.org.uk) for more info.

May see you on a BikeSafe course
