This course is aimed at men and women who already have some riding experience but want to improve their skills. In particular, the course covers common road situations and focuses on how to tackle them using specific riding techniques with the goal to increase safety and to correct any risky riding behaviour. The exercises are designed to help riders maintain better control of their bikes and avoid potentially dangerous everyday situations. To participate in this course it is necessary to have a driving licence without limitations of engine displacement.
