    I did one a few years ago. Makes you realise how little you actually know about safe riding.

    I can imagine it being a good day

    As for the police advanced bike course compared to the standard course......the cones are a little harder and the riding a little faster but thats it really.

    I often read articles on police advanced riders but a lot of forces do the advanced bike course on the BMW R1200RT which is a bike thats also used for the standard course and i know those bikes are only good for around 135mph kitted.

    I did a day out woth the Met a few years ago was a good day

    No doubt there will requirements to meet, such as full one piece leathers or 2 piece with a zip right round (not just across the back).
    There are also quite strict noise requirements at Castle Coombe, but all that should be made clear beforehand.
    Is the track option really for those who want to brush up their racing skills or want to blast around the circuit quickly.

    I wouldnt miind doing it so I could practice my cornering but wouldnt want to hold everyone up.

    Thanks for that.
    Wheres Odiham?
    Problem I got with cornering is that I tend to slow down too much as I am not that confident in leaning the bike over very much.
    cheers
