Biker Down courses -FREE

Post by billinom8s »

No it's not how to drop your bike, it's a free course to help you out if you happen upon a bike accident.

It's free, apparently very helpful and it's free.

What's the harm?

I've booked into the Oct 7th one at Exmouth fire station.

Here's the link to that and the other courses.

Do they do these in Cornwall or is it a Devon based thing?

Follow the link badger, a couple of years back it was only Somerset that did these. I guess with enough pressure Cornwall may take part.

It is on at Exeter the morning that the Exeter Bike Show is on in the afternoon so might be worth a ride up Badger. Weather looks shaky though. This was informative:

Press release

Edit: sold out that day

Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..
