I've seen a few vancouver guys. I'm always looking for people to ride with. I like the twisty back roads mostly. And I hate going the speed limit. :wink:

Then I would be too slow for you to ride with.

Have you looked into the website of BC Sportsbikes.com.

You would be able to find lots of Vancouver riders who like to go too fast. :)

Well it's been five years since the last post on this but what the heck.... www.jibc.ca has a course. Talking to a rider yesterday and he made a good comment. The money you save by not taking a course will just go to higher insurance. So take the course and get lower insurance and it will all balance out. Thanks

If I needed a class, I'd go to the Justice Institute also. Aside from having good people, they are easy to get to.

Got a reply back from icbc and they said they don't offer discounts on insurance premiums for taking any kind of driving course.
Oh well. There you have it.

ICBC does not offer discounts for anything unless you have years accident free and then you qualify for Road Star.

By taking a class you may be able to get an alternative insurance provider for your collision and comprehensive. Some conditions apply such as type of bike and age of rider.
