What You'll Improve
Simple, Honest
Pricing
When you consider that Baz is a qualified IAM observer with years of advanced riding experience, coaching using the Police Roadcraft system — the same framework used to train police riders — these sessions represent exceptional value.

Why This is Exceptional Value
A formal IAM Advanced Riding course typically costs £300–£500+ and requires months of commitment, group sessions and a formal test. With Baz, you get the same Police Roadcraft-based instruction, delivered one-to-one, on your schedule, with no test pressure. As a practising IAM observer for the Warrington group, Baz brings the same level of expertise — but with a personal, flexible approach that works around you. At £30 for a 2-hour session, there is no more cost-effective way to become a significantly better, safer rider.

Reviews & Testimonials
"Baz completely transformed how I ride. I'd been riding for 12 years and thought I knew it all — within one session he'd identified habits I didn't even know I had. His use of the Police Roadcraft system makes everything logical and easy to understand. Couldn't recommend him highly enough."
"Joined the Scotland tour in 2022 and it was the best riding trip I've ever done. Baz sorted everything — hotels, routes, the lot. All we had to do was turn up and ride. The roads he picked were absolutely incredible. Already booked for next year."
"I was nervous about coaching but Baz made it completely relaxed and pressure-free. No tests, no judgement — just really practical advice that made an immediate difference. My cornering and road positioning have improved massively. Great bloke too."
"Been on three Scotland tours with Baz now and every one has been brilliant. He puts so much effort into planning the routes — you never end up on a boring road. The group is great too, same faces every year which makes it feel like a proper trip with mates."
"As an IAM observer himself, Baz knows exactly what to look for and how to explain it clearly. He's patient, thorough and genuinely passionate about improving riders. The Police Roadcraft approach gives you a proper system to follow, not just tips. Brilliant coaching."
"I'd been riding for about six years and always felt like something was missing in my technique. Baz pinpointed it within the first twenty minutes — my road positioning was all over the place. After two sessions I felt like a completely different rider. Worth every penny and more."
"Did the Scotland tour last summer and honestly it was the trip of a lifetime. Baz had planned every detail — the hotels were spot on, the routes were stunning and the pace was perfect for the whole group. Never once felt rushed. Already pestering him about the next one."
"Baz is the real deal. No gimmicks, no hard sell — just honest, expert coaching based on proper Police Roadcraft principles. He rode behind me for a session and the debrief afterwards was incredibly detailed. I've already recommended him to three mates from our local riding group."
"I was a bit sceptical at first — I've done a few courses over the years and they were all a bit generic. Baz is completely different. He tailors everything to you specifically, explains the 'why' behind every technique and follows up after the session too. Genuinely impressed."
"Third year on the Scotland tour and it just keeps getting better. Baz puts a ridiculous amount of effort into the planning — we never take the same road twice and somehow he always finds routes that blow your mind. The group has become like a family. Wouldn't miss it for the world."
