Make a Choice for a Safer Staffordshire. THINK Road Safety

Improve your skills

Motorcycling is a skill for life and these skills need to be developed. If you haven't been on a bike for a while think about taking some refresher training. Learn from your experiences to improve your skills and enjoyment of motorcycling.

BikeSense (Rider Development Day)

Staffordshire County Council's Road Safety & Sustainable Travel Unit is actively involved in education, training and publicity. As part of our commitment to reducing motorcycle casualties we are promoting rider development through the 'BikeSense' Rider Development Scheme, which offers all full licence holders the opportunity to attend a full days rider development course with advanced motorcycle trainers for a cost of only £30.

The development days are run from Stafford and Stoke-on-Trent on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the summer. Starting at 9:30am, bikers will be out on the road by 10am and can expect a full days tuition under the control of our team of advanced trainers. All tuition is on a 2:1 basis; pairings will be made on the day following discussion with clients in the morning. You will have a stop for lunch (the cost of which is not included) within the day and can expect to return by approximately 4pm.

Clients are expected to complete a Disclaimer and Rider Profile prior to attending their training, and bring them along on the day, to help to identify areas where development is required.
