Here's something for whoever runs the ADUK forum ... enough of this discrimination against bikers, I say
The Bike section currently states: "Discussion on Advanced and Defensive Driving. IAM, RoSPA/RoADA, High Performance Course. All associated training. Motorcycle training."
I propose this is corrected to state: "Discussion on Advanced and Defensive Riding. Diamond, ERS, IAM, RoSPA/RoADAR, Blue Riband and OCN Level 2/3 Courses. All associated training. Motorcycle training."
This is because the High Performance Course doesn't exist for bikers (OCN Level 3 being roughly equivalent to HPC, IME) and there are other bike-specific certifications, e.g. the BMF Blue Riband advanced award and ERS certificate of competence.
Also, RoADA is now known as RoADAR ... to take account of Riders
