ERS is training aimed at riders who have their full A2/A licence and are familiar with their bike. Many riders take this course to develop their skills after DAS training, or, having ridden for a few years feel like they would like some feedback on their riding.
Enhanced Rider Scheme Course ( ERS )
Post Test / Advanced Training
Seven core modules focus on safe, systematic riding and include bends, overtaking, filtering, slow speed control and general roadcraft. This is the framework we use for the initial assessment. Training is then personalised based on riders’ individual needs.
How does it work?
Before the day we meet online / by phone and discuss what your training needs are. On the day we have an initial rider briefing and then an assessment ride to see where you are at. We stop for a break and review the ride, confirming the areas we need to focus on. We use a DJI action camera to capture footage which helps riders to see themselves riding on the day and gives the feedback some context. The day lasts 6 hours and uses a mix of roads in Sussex. The aim is not only to develop riding skills, but also to have a great day out on the bike.
There is a maximum of 2 riders per course and if you book together there is a discount available.
Why Saferide?
John is an experienced DVSA instructor who has spent many years working with riders of all abilities. From those completely new to motorcycling, to full licence holders ready for advanced riding.
He passed his IAM advanced riding test with a First, then went on to become a National Observer training riders to pass their advanced riding test. He then passed his Masters riding qualification with a Distinction, finally being invited to be an IAM Masters Mentor. John now uses all of these skills training Saferide students.
Riders receive footage after the day, along with a comprehensive written report on their day, covering theory as well as practical advice. The training is based on a mix of teaching from ‘Roadcraft’ and John’s personal experience of riding for 30 years.
After the day, provided riders show they have developed their skills, Saferide will issue the Enhanced Rider Scheme Certificate which can open up discounts on your bike insurance.
This is a premium rider training package aimed at riders who are keen to develop their skills in a positive and fun way.
