Kent Firebike Rider Skills Day Brands Hatch 2013
« on: 21 January 2013, 06:58:38 am »
Ride Skills Day at Brands Hatch. What's this about?Simply put it is a 'taster' day for a number of different experiences, run at this World famous circuit by us, The Kent Fire & Rescue Service, the Fire Bike Team with assistance from The IAM, RoSPA and MSV (Motor Sport Vision). It is about offering Bikers the chance to experience differing aspects of biking that are all geared to make them safer/ more accomplished Riders on the road! There are 5 elements covered on the day: Basic First Aid for Bikers, Advanced Motorcycling Theory input, Slow speed control session, Observed Rides (tasters) with IAM and RoSPA Observers and 2 track sessions (novice level). All in one day and all for 50 quid!
It is NOT really for 'track day demons' or Advanced Standard riders, it is aimed at those who have never been on a track, who have never had advanced input or been a member of an Advanced group, we can and will cater for newer riders and the more nervous or those who just want to experience some of the above. Having said that if you are a bit of 'sporty' rider on the road and like speed then maybe you should also get yourself on the waiting list becasue we may be able to help you with some enlightenment!
I need to gauge interest for our first planned day which is to be in mid-April, we are then looking at further dates in June and July. If you would like to get your name down on the list and recieve more info please contact me directly on:

Age is a question of mind over matter, if you don't mind, it doesn't matter!
If I had a brain I would be dangerous
