I did IAM's 2 years back now and for the training part enjoyed every min of it and got a lot from it.... i also left a some of it alone. i took from it what i found relevent to me and helpfull to me (which was most of it to be honest)
But the social side i found as others have said, very clossed and pompus i'm better than you attitude. but then i took it to improve my riding and not for the social side so this wasnt a big deal realy.
I would highly recomend extra training, rospa, iams, ride to arrive.... it dosent matter. anything that makes you "think" about the actions you take on the road is a good thing.
Am I better than some one that didnt take IAM's? foc no! every rider is diff and what they want from thier ride is diff. am i a better ridder now than before the training for how i ride? yes. but far from invinceable lol i still make mistakes, i still have "moments" and i still think affter doing something like that "ok your a tool, pay attention"
