Signed .

My son starts riding this month at the tender age of 16.

Last weekend he was on the back of my bike and we were pulled out on twice. Fortunately i could see it unfolding so pulled up sharpish. The good thing is that he has experienced what bikers face on the road on a daily basis before he gets on the road himself.

Drivers should go on a 'Bike aware' course

Experience counts for so much in these situations - I've been lucky so far, & somehow had a sixth sense in seeing these things before they happen............

Spot on.

Ive agreed to him getting a bike but only riding on the local roads by the coast where its quiet and ill be riding with him for the majority of the time.

He's on a 50cc ped to start with but already eyeing up 125's!
