BikeSense 2013
It’s that time of year again when we get the bike out, dust it down and blow off the cobwebs ready for the spring. We may have spent all winter just waiting for the nice sunny days to return not riding at all or we may have continued riding all year long through good and bad.
Either way, you might feel a bit rusty and in need of a little training to keep you safe on the road, or just to improve your skills and make you a better rider.
BikeSense Rider Development provided by Staffordshire County Council is just for you, because you can never get enough training, and our subsidised scheme means you only pay £30 for a full day with suitably qualified trainers. We operate the scheme from Stoke-on-Trent and Stafford throughout the summer starting in April and going through to October. You will receive excellent tuition on a 2:1 basis meeting at 9.30am, with your debrief finishing at approximately 4pm.
If you complete the BikeSense day you can also take advantage of the £50 cash back with Devitt Insurance (new business only, no renewals) and £40 off the Institute of Advanced Motorists ‘Skill for Life’ Advanced Course (must complete the test). What’s more, if you want to attain the ‘Enhanced Rider Scheme’ standard, you can do that too, whereas any training undertaken with BikeSense will go towards it (subject to availability of ERS trainer); if you meet the required standard whilst partaking in BikeSense you will receive the certificate at the end of the day.
So what you waiting for? All you need to do is contact the team on 0300 111 8012 to book your day and you’ll be looking forward to being a better and safer rider. The dates are shown below:-
