BikeSafe-London invites motorcyclists, moped and scooter riders to participate in Rider Skills Days that offer assessment on present skills, and advice to help make their riding in London safer and more enjoyable. As well as professional riding techniques, topics covered include the system of motorcycle control, collision causation factors and security.

The Rider Skills Days are run during the week and at weekends, by highly qualified police motorcyclists passing on their wealth of knowledge and experience in a friendly and informal manner. Held at the famous Ace Cafe London, and the Metropolitan Police Sports Club at West Wickham, Kent, the pre-booked days include both classroom based advice and on-road ride-outs.

The Ace Cafe London is synonymous with the world of motorcycling and offers not only an ideal location in London, but a great day out too. The Warren is a country house set in beautiful gardens and surrounded by excellent biking roads. The days start at 8.45am and finishes around 4.30pm with lunch included and costs just £30.00 per rider.

Whether you ride a high powered performance machine or a smaller commuter bike, if you are serious about staying safe on London's roads, you should book onto one of their Rider Skills Days now.
