What good is the "useful training" when a newbie biker can go to a biker's cafe (or a forum) and hear people slagging off the IAM (or RoSPA or anyone else) as a "sanctimonious etc etc" and think "well, I won't bother with that, then"?

A quick addendum.  NOTHING encapsulates the problems of the IAM better than the above quote.

You know what? I agree. People dismissing the IAM as "sanctimonious etc etc" does nobody any good.
