Yes, just because they caused all this greif for our Graham,

Brilliant post, I passed my bike test in 1962 then did RAC/ACU course as that was all that was available. Then in 2000 my son wanted to ride the R6 I had at the time, as he had passed his test a couple of years before but had never ridden anything like the R6, so we both toddled off to our IAM group, I managed to pass a month before he did.
[/size][/color]It has stood us both in good stead, I do much higher bike miles than him, but he is catching up fast, and on the times I have been knocked off they were in bizarre, almost unimaginable situations, and would have been much worse without training.
[/size][/color]Nowadays the roads are very congested with people who are not drivers, but just want to get from A-B in the most convenient way. They are not bothered about raising skill levels, more about satnavs, texting etc., etc and only seem to learn enough to pass the test, or not in some cases!
[/size][/color]There is very little courtesy on the road, though thankfully bikers are not so guilty of this, so it is a bit of a war zone every day now in the South East a road is closed due to a major incident. :eek
