Re: Is it ever too late to take up training?
I think any attempt to get guys to train is a good idea
I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now
A touch of insanity crept back in the shape of an R1200R

Re: Is it ever too late to take up training?
I think the answer is pretty obvious (or hope so), no it's never too late to take up training. I think it's a good campaign idea but I'm not a fan of the video, too many "virtual motorcycle/scooter/pedestrian deaths" in it... I'm thinking it will scare a heck of a lot of new riders OUT of learning to ride!
