POLOKWANE – Defensive Riding course will once again be returning to the city to help educate and sharpen the skills of motorcycle riders. The programme is geared for riders coming back into motorcycling after a lay off or for riders that want to improve their skills.
With drunk/reckless driving incidents being more prevalent during the festive season, this course is the ideal way for two wheel fans and first time bikers to learn how to minimise their risk of being involved in an accident.
The training will be for one day and last approximately six hours and will be given by top instructors Diete Engelbrecht, Heine Engelbrecht, Gareth Diesel, Jade Whitehouse and Chris Ndimande.
The programme will includes the following:
• Ride safely in traffic.
• Improve traffic awareness.
• Select proper lane position.
• Identify hazards.
• Decide how to avoid conflict.
