IAM test applied for!

[Hunar]

Well after just 4 'lessons' I was told I was ready for my IAM test, I had a check ride with a senior observer today, and scored pass level or above, and told

'Ride like that on your test, and you will pass, apply for your test online tonight.'

One step closer to riding a dedicated blood bike, the first goal I made during my recovery, and will be really nice to get it ticked off the list.

I would highly reccomend anyone taking an advanced course, as a sceptic myself, I have to say I am converted. I genuinley believe that even the most experienced rider will get some benefit from the training, and not just the insurance discount. If you have dismissed the idea of doing it, then reconsider, if you've never considered it, now would be a good time.

I'm giving serious consideration to taking it further and training to be an observer, and also thinking about also taking the RoSPA test as well, I don't think there is a rule that you can't have both.

Once this goal is ticked off, I can concentrate on the next one, world domination!

Vote Hunar! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Excellent news - good luck with the test. And with the world domination. ;D

Best of luck.

Lots of people see the benefit in doing both and there are many people (like myself) who are members of both groups. The benefits to doing ROSPA as well are:

1) You get a graded pass bronze/silver/gold which has some value. Gold is recognised as the highest award you can get outside the police.
2) You get a retest every 3 years with ROSPA, the cost of which is covered by your annual subscription to ROSPA (£22.50).
3) ROSPA offer a talk every month including some tutorial evenings. Not all will be of interest to you, but some may be of interest e.g. world land speed project.
4) ROSPA in North Wilts is also a joint car group, so there are some benefits to that if you are a driver e.g. the tutorial evenings apply to both bike and car and some of the talks are about car matters.

It's great to see your success and acheivement.
