Independent road safety charity IAM RoadSmart has announced the dates for its 2021 programme of Skills Days, which allow motorcyclists the chance to learn valuable handling skills from qualified instructors while riding their own motorcycles on a race circuit.

Taking place at Thruxton in Hampshire, Mallory Park in Leicestershire and Croft in Darlington during this summer and autumn, the sessions are open to both IAM RoadSmart members and the general public – and allow attendees a rare chance to learn about handling and precision driving and riding on a race circuit, and to develop new skills that will help ensure both safety and enjoyment on public roads.
