Bennetts, the motorcycle insurance specialist, has once again partnered with Shires Motorcycle Training to offer its ever-popular Rider Confidence courses.
Focusing on developing riders’ understanding of machine control, through a combination of ‘classroom’ theory sessions and practical exercises, the courses can benefit motorcyclists of all ages and abilities.
Starting at just £99 for BikeSocial members and £119 for all other motorcyclists, the courses begin from 17th April 2023 and are held at popular venues including Brands Hatch, Donington Park and Bedford Autodrome, in an off-track location close to the race circuit. The course is designed to be beneficial to new, experienced, returning or ‘rusty’ riders, with owners of all types and capacity of machines welcome – from scooters to cruisers and everything in between.

All training takes place off-track. Any type and engine size of motorcycle is allowed, although the machine must be road legal and insured. Riders must hold a valid motorcycle licence or CBT and wear appropriate clothing for riding.
The highly experienced instructors closely review and guide riding technique during all the sessions, with the added use of earpieces. The sessions will involve a range of theory and practical exercises in a safe and controlled environment. The participants will be taught to improve specific skill areas, including emergency braking, hazard avoidance and slow speed control manoeuvres.
Bennetts Senior Marketing Manager and Rider Confidence Day Graduate, Marisa Sloper, commented “Since 2020 we’ve worked closely alongside the amazing team at Shires to bring this exclusive course to the next level. Part of our mission at Bennetts is to help riders get more from motorcycling and after personally completing the course, I strongly believe the quality of training that’s on offer is unrivalled.”
