Motorcyclists across Anglesey are being encouraged to sign up for a BikeSafe workshop taking place in Llangefni this weekend, with places still available for the popular road safety initiative.
North Wales Police say the workshop, which will be held at Llangefni Police Station on Sunday, June 7, is open to riders of all experience levels – from newly qualified motorcyclists looking to build confidence to seasoned bikers wanting to further develop their skills.
BikeSafe is a nationally recognised police-led programme designed to reduce motorcycle casualties by helping riders improve their road awareness, machine control and hazard perception. The workshops combine classroom-based learning with an observed ride and personalised feedback from advanced police motorcyclists.
Previous BikeSafe participants have praised the scheme for helping them identify bad habits, improve cornering and positioning techniques, and gain a better understanding of how to stay safe on often challenging rural roads.
Motorcyclists remain one of the most vulnerable groups of road users. Although bikes account for a relatively small proportion of traffic on UK roads, riders are disproportionately represented in serious and fatal collision statistics. Programmes such as BikeSafe aim to address that by encouraging continuous learning and safer riding practices.
The workshop starts at 9am and organisers say it offers riders a valuable opportunity to enhance their skills while enjoying some of the spectacular roads North Wales has to offer.
Limited places remain available, and riders can book online. Additional BikeSafe workshops are also planned in Wrexham, Pwllheli, Colwyn Bay and Bangor throughout the year.
