The scheme was launched in January 2005, and is the first of its kind in England to offer a subsidised post test development course for bikers.
Like the Driving Standards Agency's (DSA) Pass Plus for drivers, Bike Plus offers post-test guidance to people who have passed their bike test, or those who are returning to riding after an absence.
The cost of the one day course is as little as £60, with the county council and instructors subsidising up to 50 per cent of the overall £120 cost.
The on-road training - covers hazard awareness, forward planning, road positioning, overtaking, rural/urban riding and bends and cornering ? and is given by fully qualified motorcycle instructors, registered and approved by the DSA, who have registered to take part in the scheme and agreed to an additional code of conduct.
Bikers continue to be over represented in road accident casualty figures both nationally and locally. Bike Plus is a practical initiative offering potentially long-term benefits to the safety of riders.
Figures show that 21 per cent of crashes in Derbyshire over the last three years have involved either an inexperienced rider or a new bike.

Refresher lessons on a 1 to 1 basis are available with bike hire if required. The lessons will focus on what you need to improve upon to get more fun out of riding your bike.
So whatever your requirements, cornering, overtaking, motorways, give us a call and start the improvement process as well as increasing your safety.
