ADUK Archive

Hi,

a quick introduction from me:

I live in the Manchester area. I'm interested in driving and riding and I am interested in learning more. I've read widely on both over the years.

Training-wise, I have an IAM motorbike pass. I've done a defensive driving course with IAM and been observed by a RoAdar examiner. I've had a session in a skid car.

Experience-wise, I enjoy driving in all conditions and I've ridden/driven in various countries/continents. South America and Asia being particularly interesting... Other than turn-up-and-drive karting, I've only been on a track once. I'm a keen mountain biker (preferably on rocky/technical mountains)

Beliefs-wise, I'm more in favour of drivers interacting harmoniously with one-another than I am in favour of people adhering strictly to any 'driving system'. I'm a fan of smoothness and I've no objection to overlapping control inputs if it will aid smooth progress.

I'm intrigued by the 'HPC', but don't know much about it.

Cheers,

Welcome oh-wise-one!

I'll let others explain HPC but you might like to come along to an ADUK driving day...you'll find a wide range of drivers and experience and background attend...some IAM/ROSPA, some HPC and others with no formal training at all. They are always friendly, non-competitive, enjoyable and informative.

Only problem is there are no more organised for this year - unless someone steps up to the plate!

Cheers.

I'll have a look at the calendar.

Are there any active members in my area?
