Advanced Motorcycle Lesson #1: advanced bends, positioning & town riding. Enhanced Rider Scheme.

A longer upload, for those who are looking to further their skills into advanced riding.

If you feel like thanking me with a drink here's how: https://buymeacoffee.com/leannamoore

The Enhanced Rider Scheme certificate (DVSA accredited), is taught according to the same principles as found in "Roadcraft, the police rider's manual", excluding the blues and twos elements. These are the same principles underpinning all advanced motorcycle training courses.

This lesson covers mostly country bends and a little town/country work. This ERS student returned to training after 5 months off over the winter.

** IPSGA is the system of motorcycle roadcraft that underpins all advanced riding: Information, Position, Speed, Gear, Acceleration.
