Hi Brian,
I got the ERS certificate with your letter last week, thanks very
much.
Thanks again for the training last weekend, I really enjoyed it.
I thought you may be interested that I managed to get a reasonable
discount
off my insurance as a result of the ERS.
After lots of shopping around, I finally bought my insurance through
Harley Rider Insurance. When they initially quoted me £432, the
DSA ERS was not on
their list of riding qualifications for discount (although Harley's
own 3-day 'back to biking' course @ £750 was on the list!). Some
further negotiating (pushing the ERS) had the desired effect and
they gave a
discretionary discount of about £30 for the ERS - about 7% off the
original quote. All in all, worth the effort fully comp Harley-specific
insurance, with European cover, European Recovery, helmet &
clothing cover and only £150 excess, negotiated down to £388,
only £5 more than a Bennetts standard policy. And that's without
having a NCD. I don't think that's too bad after 28 years off
bikes.
I pick the Harley up on Tuesday, can't wait.
Regards,

FEEDBACK FROM ERS COURSE
Hi Brian,
Course was very helpful and exactly what I was after. Real mixture
of riding
experiences along with a great refresher on the basics and a strong
focus on
safety.
Mark was very clear with his instruction, whilst at the same time
being
relaxed and easy to get on with.
Value for money seems about right, especially as one to one tuition
and you
provided all the gear.
Hope that helps. Overall a great experience and now I just have
to decide
what bike to go and get.

'Thanks very much to Brian
and Mark for enabling me to pass the DAS. Having never sat on
a bike, I nervously commenced the CBT. The clear, concise and
friendly instruction quickly installed skill and confidence and
enabled me to pass through the processes and obtain all the modules
required. I would highly recommend learning with Phoenix'.
