Known as the 'life saver'. At least that was what is was called when I took my motorcycle training in 1982. I've heard of that before. A lifelong friend is a big motor-bike enthusiast (real bikes, not the things they make today) and he is at least still with us. |

So you agree that everyone should take a bicycle training course before they can apply for a driving licence and should have to renew their cycle training every 3 years. |

I have passed TWO cycling proficiency tests and yet passed my motorcycle test in 1977 with NO training at all. Same with my car test which I took in my dad's car, also with NO training. Lots of us did in the 1970's as we could not afford lessons with a school. |

Back then bicycles were just for poor council house parasites like Pounder, now they are the primary mode of transport for intelligent, educated, professionals. |

Agreed - there is more training for motorcycling and driving now, which is why you never see drivers speeding, using phones or getting parking tickets as the level of training is so high these days. |
