Rider training?

[nzspokes]

Reading Blackbird's blog made me aware of IAM, and I too have gone onto the IAM path and will take the full membership test shortly, then go on to qualify as an Observer.

So, more training than I'm currently on... only adventure riding and more technical off road skills, as IAM is road riding.

Since I'm often being assessed, yes, I have a pretty good idea of my riding ability.

Im gunna do some off road training, you could tag along.

OK so most people have said they would benefit from added training or coaching etc.

So what barriers do you perceive to actually getting some? What would motivate you to sign up to a course or engage a coach?

Convincing the other halve, finding time including getting to and from the location, committing in advance as family requirements often conflict outside commitments.

• Do you think you require or would benefit from further motorcycle training?
• If you did, what would you most like that training to entail?
• Do you think you have an accurate and honest idea of your ability?

Hell yes - especially if its free!
Free stuff
No - I underrate it - and I ride like a nana on the road.

The main thing preventing me from doing as much training as possible is :
1) Cost
2) Time (3 kids)
