Re: Advanced Test
Yup you and me have been there haven't we mate with the EFAD, a tick in the box can also give a false sense of security, as I said previously I thought I knew it all!!! NEVER I will and can always learn. There are too many w@nkers in cages that are either drunk, drugged up, thinking about the kids or what to get at the shops, so treat every other road user as a complete imbecile. It works for me. But I use the word w@nker rather than imbecile. :wink:
To everyone who is following this thread, especially the lower mileage riders. All this advanced training is without doubt a good thing. BUT dont fall into the trap that it solves ALL your riding skills problems. Its only a tick in the box to help you move ahead with your skill levels.
You need to ride your bike EVERYDAY all year round in all conditions to achieve a level where all the training becomes purely instinctive, ie if you have to think about it second by second its TOO LATE. Ultimately thats how bike cops, other emergency first response bikers and surviving dispatch riders get to be as good as they are. Use it or lose it.
