I recently put a thread on here explaining all about Bikesafe, and a few people on here had in fact been on it and knew what i was talking about.

When you go on this you have to make sure that you and your bike are legal, as they naturally get the quick once over at the start of the day.

What do you think about the 2 birks that attended recently........i couldnt believe it when i heard, but,one only had a Provisional Licence (no 'L' plates etc ) and the other didnt even posses a Driving Licence.

Numpties seem to get everywhere.

I'm doing bikesafe 31st August at Metropolitan Police Sports Club.

IIRC I've played rugby there! I hope they're better on bikes than they are with a ball!

Bring it on!

So how about an iridium visor & a race can (manufacturers offical accessory type jobbie in my case) then? I'm sure I've seen it mentioned that this would not land you in the c4ck as long as the bike was roadworthy.

Im sure that this would be ok.....well the exhaust anyway.
They are more interested in the way that you ride and at the end of the day, we are all petrolheads.

If in doubt, i will find out for you if youre serious or you can give them a call.
