• Your bike is required to have both a current Warrant of Fitness and be Road Registered.  Please also ensure that you give your bike a good check over prior to the day (fluid levels etc) and make sure you arrive with a full tank of gas. Instructors WILL refuse training to riders who turn up to a course on a motorcycle without a current WOF and/or Registration or is not deemed safe.
• You must bring your current Driver’s Licence. Instructors WILL refuse training to riders who turn up to a course without a current Driver’s Licence.
• If you are currently on a Learner Licence (6L) you are required by Law to have an L-Plate fitted to your motorcycle.  Instructors WILL refuse training to riders who turn up with a current Learner’s Licence without an affixed L-Plate on their motorcycle.

• All care will be taken to ensure course participants’ safety.  The sport of motorcycling however has inherent risks and riding on loose surfaces has a greater risk of loss of control and your bike being damaged.  Should this occur, you will not be left stranded but it is recommended that you have a plan in place to recover your bike if necessary.
• There may be locations during the day where there is no cell phone coverage.  Your instructors are trained in first aid, carry first aid kits and emergency locator beacons.
