Modern bikes are easier to ride, are more agile, have better brakes and are more fun than ever!  Yet their acceleration and power also can get us into serious trouble in fractions of a second. Corners, overtaking and junctions remain major accident hotspots, and not just for new riders. With years spent as a courier riding in all conditions on all kinds of roads, we have a unique insight into rider safety. Our very practical approach to riding offers real-world solutions to the problems we face on the road. By blending an understanding of risk with technical and mental skills, we show you how to be pro-active and efficient in your riding. Our building block approach allows us to teach core skills but retains flexibility to adjust depth and content to the prior knowledge and ability of each trainee - as you’re not locked into a rigid course and won’t get bored or pushed too hard and fast. Our courses move at just the right pace to be a challenge to all. With mind, body and machine working in harmony, the Survival Skills approach to riding will move you up to the next level of riding ability. The more we know, the better it gets.
