Publisher's Synopsis
Advanced Driver Trainer, the Handbook for Training the Trainer.
In this book, co writers Steve Tucker and David Rainford, share their lifetime of experience and accumulated knowledge to produce the definitive manual for the Advanced Rider Trainer.
Stephen Tucker has been riding motor bikes for 40 years. As a UK Traffic Police Officer he was trained in advanced riding and driving skills. Riding a police motor bike in operational situations required a tremendous amount of expertise few riders can ever experience or achieve. Riding a motorbike for pleasure or commuting also requires an exceptional level of skill. Sadly, a large number of crash scenes he attended, where a biker was involved, were generally caused by rider error.
When he retired from the Police he used his knowledge and expertise of advanced riding and driving techniques to operate his own business in the UK Driver Training Industry. He achieved an Approved Driving Instructor, Grade 6 (the highest qualification obtainable) and a BTEC Progressive Advanced Driving Instructor at a time when the Industry was only just recognising the need to ensure Instructors were suitably qualified to provide expert training.
David Rainford is an Advanced Motorcycle Rider with both the Institute of Advanced Motorists qualification and a RoSPA Gold Award. He is also a RoSPA qualified Advanced Rider Tutor.
For Advanced Riding students who can't ride with Steve or David the training techniques described in the book will help you find a good trainer.
For anyone who is considering becoming a Trainer then this is a must read book and if you are already a Trainer then there may be some insights that will help you perfect your training style.
With a foreword by Bob Smalley, Former head of Motorway and Traffic Policing in the West Midlands and for 25 years Chief Examiner of RoSPA Advanced Drivers and Riders
Thoughtfully laid out and filled with diagrams, photographs, illustrations, useful check lists and charts this is the ultimate handbook for the Advanced Driver Trainer.
