When I used to live in the UK, I recall there being many places offering "roadcraft training". By this I mean an expert rider (often police) would follow you around and give you a detailed critique of your style, positioning, safety, observation, planning etc.

I realise that in this litigious day and age such a thing my be difficult but does anybody know of such training??

Take care
