Courses WILL run in wet weather and a course will only be cancelled if the weather conditions would make it dangerous to operate.
It is important to learn to ride your bike on wet or compromised surfaces and if its raining, it’s an ideal opportunity to learn these skills. 

Ensure you wear protective motorcycle clothing, top to toe, –waterproofs are recommended, and as we will stop for lunch bring some money or a pack-up if you prefer.

Please check your motorcycle for roadworthiness before attending, ensuring the tyres are inflated to the correct pressure, the lights work and it has a current WOF and registration. 

If you are on a Learner or Restricted Motorcycle Licence, you need to be riding a Learner Approved Motorcycle (LAMS) approved bike to attend this course.
