These sessions are well worth attending. I took Gareth Tuffery out on a "The Edge" assessment 18 months ago. He was very frustrated that, as a Road Safety Officer, he was up against a very anti-bike agenda. I'll be there on Monday, as an IAM bike Member, but also as a personal biker. If we don't have a say, how can we whinge when policy is made for us?
Guess you may have realised this is a sore point with me.
If either of you are going perhaps you can ask why they spent £1000's on that stupid bumpy red tarmac outside Tiffins Girls School in Kingston - which rattled my bike to bits - only to resurface it smooth again 2 months later. The potholes around the corner however just get deeper.
BTW, I spoke to the workmen laying it and suggested that it was thought to be dangerous re: the abs debate on this very board - only to be told it was recommended by the TRL.

I'm not going to be able to make these but who do I get in touch with to make a point about Surrey road surfaces?
I live right on the border of Surrey/Sussex in Horley and we seem to be the worse of the bunch, my local roads are just unbelievable, I would love to take one of these people for a pillion ride around my local roads.
