My RoSPA tutor very kindly let me borrow what I think is one of the best bike books I've read for a while. It's called 'Not the Blue Book' by Dave Jones. Well worth reading and not just for people doing advanced training either - it's a really good well written practical guide by a Police motorcyclist who has worked for Dorset Police for 30 years.

Looks like it's hard to get hold of.
I know NW Rospa have some copies that they sell to members for £6.50 (RRP £7.99).

Thank you - it really was very kind of you to let me borrow it. :)

I finished it by Sunday night...couldn't put it down, and I did recognise some of the places in the photos.

Just got to put it all into practice now :)

Dave Jones used to pop into our training centre (CSM) in Poole from time to time, just to quiz our knowledge I think. If nothing else, he inspired me to know my subject inside out. He was always catching us out with questions and senarios.
