Great idea,the earlier children are exposed to proper riding instruction the better. Offering advanced Project Ride or even MSF courses would be great .BMRC has some very talented riders who are willing to share their knowledge,with support from the Road Safety Council,cycle shops,members of the public,potential sponsors and Government(who have pledged support for all sports clubs)people will be more knowledgeable and proficient around motorcycles and hopefully safer.
