Training for motorcyclists

Training is essential if you want to stay safe and get the most out of your bike.

We offer training courses for all full A or A2 qualified motorcyclists of all skill levels. Email roadsafety@norfolk.gov.uk for more information or to book a course.

We work closely with dealers and bike groups so we're often the first to hear about what's going on. Follow us on Facebook to stay up to date with events and general information on the bike scene.

Safe Rider

This course costs £50 and includes a two-and-a-half hour evening session and a five hour road session.

The course also includes:

• Downloads to read and keep
• An introduction to the police Roadcraft system
• Professional advice and an opportunity to have your riding assessed with constructive feedback
• A demonstration ride by a police rider

Safe Rider is a fun, relaxed and informal course. It's a joint initiative between Norfolk Constabulary and Norfolk County Council which aims to reduce motorcycle casualties.

Hugger’s 1:1 Skills Session

The session costs £50 for 2 hours.

Do your cornering skills need sharpening up? How well-judged is your overtaking? Do you just want a general check on your ride?

Whatever you want to focus on Hugger's 1:1 Skills Session will be personalised to your individual training needs.

You'll also receive a Hugger Gold Card that entitles you to discounts at participating motorcycle dealers.

Hugger’s 1:1 Skills Session is not aimed at learner riders.

i2i Motorcycle Academy

i2i Motorcycle Academy run their courses at Scottow Enterprise Park in Norfolk. You'll learn advanced braking techniques, stability exercises, what initiates lean, what holds the bike through the turn, slow riding and much, much more.

It's very different to Roadcraft based training but enhances it, so if you make a mistake you're less likely to panic. You'll be much more relaxed with the bike and comfortable knowing what it's capable of doing.

Find out more about the courses, costs, dates, and book online on the i2i Motorcycle Academy website.
