Cooper Bike Training, training 'Born Again' riders since 1991

It was developed for two types of rider:

• Those considering returning to motorcycling after a long interval (the 'record' is 41 years!) for whom we place emphasis on long-forgotten (or possibly never-learned!) skills 
  
• Riders who have recently obtained a full, unlimited license by Direct Access training but wish to gain more confidence with a larger, heavier machine, perhaps before taking test rides and purchasing their own machine

However, from October 2006 Cooper Reading BMW will no longer sell motorcycles, so we are unable to offer the loan motorcycles for courses.

We will instead be offering the same level of training and experience if you have your own bike, and are exploring options for a range of sites across the area.

Content includes:

- Controls, parking and use of stands;
- Slow-speed control;
- Machine handling and steering techniques;
- Supervised road ride (if time allows);
- Reminder sheets and information pack.


The session will improve both your confidence and competence, and will include techniques not included in current learner-level training.

What they wrote: 
'Excellent techniques which I look forward to putting into practice. Why courses designed to get folks through their test don't employ these techniques quite escapes me!' 
'More than I'd hoped for! It was
something special.' 
'Your words of wisdom have made this trip easier and safer. 4000km into the trip and I'm less of a liability now.'  (Postcard from New Zealand) 
'The day was brilliant. I don't know what was best - the laughs or the instruction! - and I appreciated everything I was told.'
