How do I go about finding someone to ride-out with me as an observer? I mean a qualified instructor of course, paid-for...

I'd like to have an assessment on my progress/skills (a year on from DAS) to ascertain what my training needs are if any at this point. Better, safe and defensive riding being my goal because the bike is important transport for me - not always just for fun. I guess I want to make sure I'm still doing things right - more or less.

Any recommendations as to where to start my enquiries chaps, what what eyebrow.gif  And...how long a ride-out would you think would be appropriate?
ima

ima
Although i must admit to being a bit nervous about it.
I find it hard to accept criticism. I get enough at work...
I know, I know your going to say but it's constructive criticism but it makes it no easier to accept. (takes deep breath)

Cheers TC.

I'm 10 miles west of Oxford. Near Witney, not far from Abingdon either...
