Course overview

The Member's Advanced Rider Refresher a great opportunity for IAM RoadSmart members (past or present) to go out on three to four 60-90 minute rides with an skilled Observer. It may be quite some time since you passed your Advanced test, or you may just want the opportunity to brush up on a few advanced riding skills. All you need is a full valid licence, full membership status and your own motorbike.

About the session

The Member’s Advanced Rider Refresher has been designed to focus on maintaining Advanced Riding skills with reference to the competencies in the Advanced Rider Logbook. Your Observer will be able to identify some areas to work on and you will be encouraged to input into the focus of each session to gain the most benefit. There’s no test and there’s no pressure – just enjoy the sessions!

What’s included?

The first session will start with introductions and a discussion of your goals. Sessions 2 and 3 will focus on revision of IPSGA and developing skills individual to the rider. Session 4 is an optional session to recap on learning and bring everything together. The course is likely to take a couple of months depending on how often you meet. Between your sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to put into practise your learnings.

Are there any additional costs?

Your allocated Observer is a volunteer and will use their own motorcycle when riding with you to deliver the course. Some Groups request that a contribution is made to the fuel costs incurred by the Observer.
