That,s a great site. It is about time that other forces, including the one I am in, start to upgrade and become more corporate based. It would mean more days available and more instructors able to give tuition. Good on ya' Durham Constabulary

I think durham police motorcycle section a way ahead of other forces when it comes to bikers. More user friendly so to speak. They are more concerned about awareness and safety than issueing tickets. They hold regular rideouts and training for ordinary joe public.
I spent several years on the section and have to admit it was the best part of my working life. clap

Agree with that.
The Chief Jon Stoddart is a good bloke who still has his feet on the ground which also helps.
