This is a very
popular one or two day introduction to motorcycle touring in Scotland with an
emphasis on how to improve your driving. The course is specifically
designed for those who have just passed their test, but easily adapted to
cater for the motorcyclist with more mileage experience. (It's a
great two days away on the bike, with like minded bikers, learning new
exciting bike skills, driving some great Scottish roads.)

... now think about this ...
After passing their bike test,
most motorcyclists don't develop new skills, they simply become complacent
and confident in the lower-end skills they were trained in to pass their test.
This makes them a more confident biker but not a safer and better biker. Does
this apply to anyone you know?
