Any questions??

[Dutch]

Ye, you said you were going to one of them?? any idea which one?

[Mac]

I think I was looking at the 4th June. May is quite a busy month for me. Also gives me time to get used to the bike and its handling etc.

[Dutch]

How long have you had it then?? It is a great bike. One of the ones i wanted to get but the Insurance would have been nearly £800 a year fully comp and the bike i have is only about £380. Big difference when you are on a budget

[Mac]

MMm...Picked it up Friday...lol
Also means weather will be a little warmer too in June

[Dutch]

Ye totally!! so have you got an 06?? Got mine pre-registered so it is on a 55 but i have had it 3 weeks now. Loving every moment of it. Not quite like your bike but enough for me at the moment.
Zebedee and I are going to the one on the 23rd April if we can get in.
I will let you know what it is like when we have done it.

[Mac]

The course is excellent and good to speak to the police riders too for tips. I was talking to some officers at the bike show last year and was really interested in this course....
Also gives you discount for ur insurance too! So all good....
Dutch..would you be interested in doing a write up for the site?

[Dutch]

What kind of write up?? you mean on the day out and what happens?? i will certainly try. I can get a little more information from the people there and tell them that we have a site that can be used to promote the activity and get more information from them.
How does is affect your insurance then?? what do you have to do to prove to them that you ahve done it?

[Mac]

Your given a certificate at the end of the course and you send a copy of that to ur insurance company. Just like your certificate for alarm installation....
Normally gives any thing from 10% up to 25% discount...its a bit like doing pass plus in ur car i guess

[Dutch]

Wow, never knew that!
I will get as much info as possible when i am there and i will write something on an email to you so you can see whether it is worthy of being placed on the site.
